PhD Research in Aerospace Engineering, KU Leuven, Belgium

Applications are invited for a PhD fellowship situated in a joint project between the Departments of Mechanical and Materials Engineering of the KU Leuven - Campus Ghent, covering materials as well as operational aspects. The successful candidate will be affiliated with the renowned "Mecha(tro)nic System Dynamics" and "Materials Performance and Nondestructive Testing" Divisions of the KU Leuven.

Structural failure in the aerospace sector can be life-threatening for users/passengers and financially catastrophic for operators and manufacturers. A significant portion of an aircraft's lifecycle operation cost is spent on inspecting its structural integrity on the ground. On-line detection, autonomous characterization of failures within aircraft structures can lead to a radical reduction of this cost while increasing safety.

This project aims at industrial implementation, with a distinguished industrial advisory group in place, whose members, such as Brussels Airlines, support the work and can be potential partners for further valorisation.

How to Apply

Informal enquiries prior to making an application should be addressed along with a detailed CV to Prof. Dimitrios Chronopoulos at dimitrios.chronopoulos@kuleuven.be and Prof. Sam Coppieters at sam.coppieters@kuleuven.be.
