PhD position summary/title: PhD Mechanical Contact Information Processing of Soft and Large-area Robot Skin

The demand for autonomous robots capable of physically interacting with the world in flexible and adaptable ways is rapidly increasing across industries and society. These robots are needed to perform heavy, non-ergonomic tasks in unstructured environments or to assist humans in physically demanding jobs. Tactile robotics, an emerging and challenging field, focuses on developing tactile sensing and perception technologies that enable robots to intelligently respond to contact.

While significant progress has been made in finger-scale tactile sensing, challenges persist in developing soft, large-area robotic skin. A major hurdle is gathering sufficient contact information on the robot’s surface when the skin covers large, curved body areas with only a limited number of embedded sensors.

The important contact information, such as contact area, direction, pressure distribution, even slip incipient, is often not directly measurable. Instead, this information must be estimated from sensor signals produced by the mechanical model of the skin during contact. Advancing our understanding of this mechanical contact information processing is crucial for enhancing the feasibility and value of robotic skin technologies.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on AI Supply Chain Optimization Agent

Advances in OR have led to a broad industrial adoption of mathematical optimization technology to solve supply chain optimization problems. Despite that progress, a main remaining challenge is on making sure that the mathematical definition of the supply chain optimization problem matches the real-world problem. This is a task that lies with supply chain optimization experts, but has proven to be highly challenging, both before and after initial deployment of the resulting technology. Before initial deployment it can be hard to know you identified the right decisions, constraints, and objective functions. After deployment the real-world problem may diverge from the initial problem, making that the developed optimization technology no longer solves the real-world problem. We aim to develop combined AI and OR technology to help human supply chain optimization experts in getting to the right optimization problem and from that getting to the right optimization technology. This will support seamless deployment and adoption of the optimization technology, where human planners who review the proposed plans are in agreement on feasibility and quality of these plans.

The overarching objective of the “Learning and Explaining Supply Chain Optimization” project is to come to better and more robust supply chain optimization technology that is trusted by human planners so that high quality plans get fully adopted in practice. Improved supply chain optimization technology that is trusted by human planners leads to better plans with better adoption. This increases the obtained benefits from supply chain optimization by i) having better plans that use scarce resources in a more robust and efficient way, leading to more robust supply chains, shorter delays, less waste, and lower carbon footprint and ii) improving its introduction and adoption, so that business practice follows the proposed plans and potential benefits materialize. You would be working with three other PhD students in the project, so that you can benefit from each other’s expertise and research results.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on Compact modelling of Positive Energy Districts

This research project is part of the EmPowerED project, which aims to accelerate and scale up the development of Positive Energy Districts (PEDs). PEDs are urban areas that generate more energy than they consume and carbon-neutral heating and cooling is a core element of their design. The design and realization of PEDs involves (complex interactions between) societal, technical, economical and regulatory factors. EmPowerED – Enabling Positive Energy Districts through citizen-centered socio-technical models for upscaling of the heat transition – seeks to tackle this challenge by involving key stakeholders (citizen groups, municipalities, housing associations, grid operators, technology/service providers) in the decision-making process by offering them a toolbox to explore and assess local heat solutions for PEDs. The EmPowerED project involves in total 11 PhD positions at several universities, focusing on different aspects of positive energy districts. The project also involves a large range of project partners, e.g. municipalities, building corporations and technology suppliers. At the core of the EmPowerED project are 4 case studies in different municipalities (the cities of Groningen, Nijmegen, Eindhoven and Tilburg).

The PhD project in this vacancy contributes to the development of the above EmPowerED toolbox by developing simulation models for individual physical components of a PED to be used as building blocks for integrated PED models, focusing on the residential heating system. This encompasses primarily thermal components like heat exchangers, heat-pumps, short-term (e.g. daily) and long-term (e.g. seasonal) heat-storage systems, aqua-thermal and geothermal heat sources and waste heat recovery (e.g., industrial waste heat reuse, sewage treatment plant) as components in a 5th generation district heating network. The key weakness of most models currently available and in use is their oversimplified description of physical, dynamic and nonlinear behavior. The principal goal of the PhD project is to develop component models with a greater physical accuracy and predictive capability by employing state-of-the-art methods for the following two modelling approaches:

  • reduced-order models (ROMs) and input-output models derived from high-fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models;
  • data-based models determined from training/calibration data by system/parameter identification and machine learning.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on hierarchical diagnostics of complex dynamical systems

We invite highly motivated students with a strong background in dynamical systems, mathematical systems and control theory, and machine learning to apply for the PhD position within the Dynamics and Control section at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology. The mission of the Dynamics and Control Section is to perform research and train next-generation students on the topic of understanding and predicting the dynamics of complex engineering systems in order to develop advanced control, estimation, planning, learning and diagnostics strategies which are at the core of the intelligent autonomous systems of the future: Designing and realizing smart autonomous systems for industry and society.

Complex dynamical systems, such as semiconductor equipment, consists of many interconnected modules, which are functionally, digitally and physically connected. The throughput of the equipment relies on continuous runtime while meeting stringent requirements on accuracy and performance. Therefore, monitoring the health of these systems is crucial, which is now largely performed by human experts. The aim of this PhD project is to design innovative monitoring algorithms for complex dynamical systems to automate fault isolation with provable diagnostics performance guarantees.

Current health monitoring technology is typically designed for either (i) individual system components/modules (which would require removing the component from the system, which is not possible in practice), or (ii) for the system as a whole. The first approach fails to account for the interaction between modules and its effect on the whole system. The second approach makes it challenging to isolate which module may be failing and how to zoom in on the part of the system what is the root cause of the failure. This PhD position will address this challenge by developing hierachical diagnostic tools for complex dynamical systems.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on Intelligent data-driven charge management system for future electrified mobility

We invite highly motivated students with a strong background in mathematical system theory, data science and control to apply for a PhD position within the Control Systems Technology (CST) section at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology. The mission of the CST section is to develop new methods and tools in the area of Systems Theory, Control Engineering and Mechatronics. The research focuses on understanding the fundamental system properties that determine the performance of mechanical engineering systems, and exploiting this knowledge for the design of the high-tech systems of the future. In the Automotive research line, our research is committed to accelerate the introduction of smart and green mobility by self-learning control for future powertrains.

Driven by societal concerns about global warming and local air quality, the focus on electric vehicles continues to grow. To further accelerate their adoption, key challenges such as charging infrastructure, range anxiety, and affordability must be effectively addressed. For their control systems, this means energy efficiency, operational costs, vehicle range and battery life have to optimized while maintaining passenger comfort. In practice, the performance of charging strategies is limited due to model uncertainties and unknown disturbances. As a result, there is an urgent need for early anomaly detection (e.g. failure in thermal and battery system) and risk averse charging strategies. This project tackles the integration of early anomaly detection, prediction of long term vehicle usage, and charge management in electric vehicles using AI techniques. This is applied to an innovative, revolutionary use case: wireless charging method (so called Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (DWPT)), enabling real-time, coordinated charging for multiple EVs during driving.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on material processing for sustainable batteries

There is an urgent need for high-performance batteries that offer improved safety, greater energy density, longer cycle life, and faster charging. However, conventional lithium-ion batteries rely on critical raw materials such as cobalt and nickel, use toxic solvents like NMP, and involve energy-intensive manufacturing steps. To make batteries more sustainable and scalable, the field is increasingly moving toward solid-state batteries and solvent-free electrode processing. At the same time, alternative binder materials that enable recyclability and avoid the use of PTFE are being investigated, though their processing and integration remain challenging.

This PhD project is part of a national, multidisciplinary research consortium aimed at developing the next generation of sustainable batteries (Sustainable Materials & Advanced Technologies for Circular Batteries – SMART C-BAT) which brings together leading Dutch universities, research institutes, and industry partners to accelerate the transition to circular, high-performance battery technologies.

In this PhD project, and in close collaboration with partners such as LionVolt and TNO, the overarching goal is to optimize both (i) electrode and (ii) electrolyte fabrication processes. The PhD candidate will focus on investigating structure-property relationships under relevant processing conditions to better understand the parameters that govern processability of these materials. By using state-of-the-art equipment to characterize the flow properties (rheology) of both slurries and dry powders, we will examine the processability of various formulations and analyze their impact on both the final cathode and electrolyte properties. This fundamental insight will help develop more scalable, manufacturable routes for future battery production.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on Physical Layer Security for Laser Satellite Communications

We foresee a future where lasers light up the sky to enable high-bandwidth and secure communications to every corner of the Earth. Thanks to the low divergence of laser beams, these optical/infrared signals are much harder to intercept and to jam in comparison to conventional radio communications. However, more security guarantees are needed. Therefore, in this project we invite you – as a candidate PhD – to join the research on physical layer security schemes for free space optical (FSO) channels. Join the information and communication theory lab (ICT Lab) on this exciting EU research project with prestigious institutes, observatories and companies throughout Europe.

Quantum key distribution over satellite networks is envisioned as part of the core infrastructure for future long-distance, resilient, secure communications. Though the optical losses in the free space optical channel are considerably less than in the fiber channel, for large distances, the secure key rates are still very limited. This means in practice that the number of keys, the length of the keys and the rate with which they can be refreshed is limited. To overcome this and enhance the security, in addition to quantum key distribution, classical (optical) key distribution can take place. The classical key distribution can be added – on top of the quantum key distribution – and inherits its security thanks to the low-divergence of laser beams and by exploiting physical optical channel properties and smart two-way handshakes.

As a PhD candidate, you are asked to perform research in this area and come up with innovative concepts. The research includes FSO channel modelling, performing secrecy/capacity analysis for this FSO channel, performing comparative analysis between various methods in terms of their performance, and devising novel physical layer security schemeswith the aim to enhance the security, enable higher secure key rates and longer-distance secure communications.

PhD position summary/title: PhD on Symmetric Cryptography over Prime Fields and Integer Rings

Symmetric-key cryptography is of vital importance in the field of cybersecurity and data protection, offering tools for data encryption and authentication. While public-key cryptography is crucial for exchanging the key or signing data, symmetric cryptography guarantees better performance and faster speed for encrypting data.

Without doubt, AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and Keccak/SHA-3 (Secure Hash Algorithm 3) are the two most used and famous symmetric cryptography algorithms. Winners of the standardization processes sponsored by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), they are currently adopted by the U.S. and the European governments. As the majority of the symmetric primitives, they are designed to naturally operate over bits, in order to maximize their performances in Software and Hardware implementations.

At the current state of the art, this design approach is showing all its limits when those symmetric primitives are used in new emerging contexts, such as rising applications of practical importance including Format Preserving Encryption (FPE), Multi-Party Computation (MPC), Homomorphic Encryption (HE), and Zero-Knowledge (ZK). These applications are usually defined over prime finite fields, and more recently, even over integer rings. In order to work, such protocols and applications rely on the evaluation of symmetric cryptographic primitives (such as ciphers and hash functions), whose details have a crucial impact on the performances of the considered application/protocol. From this point of view, using a symmetric primitive naturally defines over the bits for performing operations over prime fields or integer rings represents a significant bottleneck in terms of performances.

As part of this project, your work will consist in designing and analyzing dedicated symmetric-key primitives operating directly over prime fields and/or integer rings, that can provide efficient solutions for rising applications of practical importance such as FPE, MPC, HE, and ZK. Due to the novelty of these symmetric primitives, special attention will be given to their security, with the goals of better understanding their security margin, and of proposing new innovative security arguments. (We highlight that the implementation of those schemes will not be part of the tasks of the PhD candidate.)
