PhD Researcher in Carbon Negative Building Materials
2 months ago
Research Opportunity
The University of British Columbia invites applications for a PhD position in the Sustainable Engineered Structural Solutions Laboratory (SESS-Lab) Group. We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled individual to pursue a Ph.D. in carbon-negative building materials for automated construction.
Research Focus
The successful candidate will contribute to the development of long-term carbon storage building materials in both structural and non-structural applications using renewable carbon. The research will focus on converting plant biomass residues into large interlocking "bio-blocks," featuring quick assembly and load-bearing capacity under in- and out-of-plane loads.
Research Objectives
- Develop modular bio-blocks for fast stacking using automated robotic bricklayer technology
- Optimize bio-block design for high load-bearing and hygrothermal performance capacity
- Conduct numerical and experimental research to determine mechanical parameters
Qualifications
Applicants should hold an M.Sc., M.A.Sc., M.Eng., or equivalent degree. A solid background in solid mechanics and/or structural analysis, and outstanding knowledge of finite element analysis (FEA), data processing, and testing methods are required. Programming skills in C++/Python or other languages, and experience with application programming interface coding are essential.
Benefits
The selected candidate will receive a four-year scholarship with a minimum Graduate Research Assistantship (GRA) package of $28,000/year 12-month-based stipend, plus top-up amount based on previous qualifications. Additional funding may be available through the Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) program and other awards.
Application Instructions
Interested applicants should contact Dr. Cristiano Loss with a letter of intent, a copy of their CV, and contact information of at least two referees. Use the subject "Application NSERC-Bio-Blocks-2024" when emailing. Only short-listed candidates will be contacted for interviews.
