PhD position summary/title: Doctoral Researcher in Personalized and Automated Transportation
Emerging transport technologies such as automated vehicles (AVs) may hold out great benefits to the urban environment and various travelers, yet AV’s impact on specific groups with unique characteristics has hardly been explored in the literature, not to mention the lack of empirical evidence. The main objective of the proposed study is to fill this gap by exploring the mobility behavior, preferences, and needs of unique groups and to develop optimal automated mobility solutions for them using state-of-the-art simulation tools that closely mimic reality. To achieve such goals, we will analyze unique datasets of individual mobility preferences, design and optimize smart mobility solutions such as automated mobility on demand at the operational level, particularly fleet size with multi-class vehicles, along with an operation system including dispatching, scheduling, and pricing strategies designed specifically for the needs of the studied groups; and compare the AV solutions under different scenarios in a large-scale city and evaluate the expected impact on groups’ mobility and consequently on their quality of life.

PhD position summary/title: Doctoral Researcher under the topic Textiles for planetary emergency
Research in design in the field of textiles and fashion means artistic design research with a strong focus on, both theoretically and practically, deepening understanding of the interplay between analysis and synthesis in the design process as a basis for developing design methodology, techniques, and programmes. The research approach is mainly experimental and focused on design in which the development of methodology, programs, and techniques presupposes critical experimental artistic work.
In this time of planetary emergency, we have to imagine and create new ways of designing, producing and consuming fibres, textiles, colours and products. It is not enough to do ”what we already do better. It is a question of doing different things in completely different ways”. This research will contribute to understanding textile design processes when designing applications for bioeconomic systems in the context of sustainability. Envisioning, exploring and prototyping material futures through cross- and interdisciplinary approaches expands knowledge on how design research can inspire and enhance the development of circular bioeconomic systems. Through speculative prototypes, it is possible to test the industry’s interest towards new materials and alternative ways of designing and manufacturing textiles in the future.

About Aalto University, Finland –Official Website
Aalto University is a university located in Espoo, Finland. It was established in 2010 as a merger of three major Finnish universities: the Helsinki University of Technology (established 1849), the Helsinki School of Economics (established 1904), and the University of Art and Design Helsinki (established 1871). The close collaboration between the scientific, business and arts communities is intended to foster multi-disciplinary education and research. The Finnish government, in 2010, set out to create a university that fosters innovation, merging the three institutions into one.
The university is composed of six schools with close to 17,500 students and 4,000 staff members, making it Finland’s second largest university. The main campus of Aalto University is located in Otaniemi, Espoo. Aalto University Executive Education operates in the district of Töölö, Helsinki. In addition to the Greater Helsinki area, the university also operates its Bachelor’s Programme in International Business in Mikkeli and the Metsähovi Radio Observatory in Kirkkonummi.
Aalto University’s operations showcase Finland’s experiment in higher education. The Aalto Design Factory, Aalto Ventures Program and Aalto Entrepreneurship Society (Aaltoes), among others, drive the university’s mission for a radical shift towards multidisciplinary learning and have contributed substantially to the emergence of Helsinki as a hotbed for startups.Aaltoes is Europe’s largest and most active student run entrepreneurship community that has founded major concepts such as the Startup Sauna accelerator program and the Slush startup event.
The university is named in honour of Alvar Aalto, a prominent Finnish architect, designer and alumnus of the former Helsinki University of Technology, who was also instrumental in designing a large part of the university’s main campus in Otaniemi.
