Jobbeskrivelse

The candidate will contribute to a project aimed at increasing the reuse of timber in construction by non-destructive testing (NDT) methods to assess the strength of reclaimed wood. This involves:

Conducting experimental studies on reclaimed timber beams to gather data for strength model development based on NDT
Utilizing machine learning to calibrate models that predict the strength of reused timber based on non-destructive test results
Applying non-destructive test methods relevant for timber, such as density measurement, fiber scanning, and acoustic response testing
Validating models established using machine learning and non-destructive test methods using experimental data, quantifying the model uncertainty and investigating the influence on verification of reliability by the partial factor method
Investigating and optimizing the use of reclaimed prefabricated timber components with respect to the available wood dimensions. Further, optimizing engineered wood products based on reclaimed timber

The position is financed by the research project "Wood Vita".
Qualification requirements
Structural Engineering:
A background in structural engineering is essential. Candidates must have expertise in structural analysis and design, including Finite Element Method (FEM) calculations for assessing the structural integrity and safety of timber structures.
Machine Learning:
Proficiency, or a strong interest in developing such skills, in machine learning models for materials science and structural engineering applications.
Timber Engineering:
Understanding of timber properties, structural behavior of wooden constructions.
You may obtain further information from Associate Professor Dario Parigi, Department of the Built Environment (BUILD), phone: +45 9940 7234, email: dpa@build.aau.dk, concerning the scientific aspects of the stipend.
