(02) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD position on optimizing thermal processes of heat-sensitive biological products by digital twins
Empa’s Laboratory of Biomimetic Membranes and Textiles is a pioneer in physics-based modeling at multiple scales. We bridge the virtual to the real world by multi-parameter sensing and creating digital twins of heat-sensitive biological systems (food, humans) that can live together with their real-world counterparts.

PhD position summary/title: PhD position in 3D analysis of tribological and thermal properties in textiles
Many skin injuries arise from non-adapted textiles and clothing. Frictional and heat/moisture accumulation problems favour the formation of injuries like blisters and pressure ulcers The PhD research will focus on characterizing and optimizing architectured fabrics and textiles using 3D micro tomography as a main tool to investigate tribological and thermal properties of different, architectured textiles (hydrophobic/hydrophilic) in different conditions (wet/moist). This will be complemented with tribological, thermal, optical (IR) and mechanical testing techniques. The research is performed in a holistic multidisciplinary approach in close collaboration with partners from UHA, France. The foreseen results of the project shall contribute to the development of optimized textiles used for medical and sports applications.
Deadline : Open until filled
