PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in Design for Additive Manufacturing of functional metallic parts
The theme of this PhD is process and component design for Additive Manufacturing (AM). AM technologies allow the direct conversion of digital designs into physical products within one production step and completely autonomous, avoiding setup time and the use of tools. Unlike the conventional materials, the material properties in AM parts evolve during the fabrication process. Process condition, geometry and material properties are closely related; every change in the geometry and process parameters will change the way the AM machine performs its building routine affecting the toolpath and ultimately, the properties of the resulting solid. Parts are no longer isotropic, in some cases not fully dense, surfaces are rough, and there is a high chance of inclusions, impurities, and inhomogeneities, all related to the underlying manufacturing strategy, which, in turn, is dependent on the input for fabrication.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in smart logistics for a sustainable construction industry
The construction industry is a significant contributor to the overall economy and growth of any country. It is, however, energy-intensive and stands for a remarkable part of total greenhouse gas emissions. Poor productivity is also frequently highlighted as a significant issue in the industry, increasing costs and, thereby, making housing less affordable for the society. Smart logistics can play a significant role in making the construction industry more sustainable, looking at the industrial sector with a systemic and holistic perspective, enabling more sustainable approaches/paradigms like circular economy, industrial symbiosis, and closed-loop supply chains. There is a need for more knowledge, decision support, and solutions for how construction and demolition sites best can be configured, organized, planned, and controlled from an economic, environmental, and social perspective. The on-going digitalization of industry, often known as industry 4.0, is seen as an important enabler, and so is its successor, industry 5.0, which focuses on the introduction of human-centric, sustainable, and resilient European industry. The objective of this position is, therefore, to develop knowledge, frameworks, models, and solutions for sustainable configuration, organization, planning, and control of construction and demolition sites, thereby contributing to the achievement of a circular economy, industrial symbiosis, and closed-loop supply chains.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate for risk management and production assurance of future energy infrastructures under NATECH accidents
Renewable energies with innovative storage formats are becoming extremely important for Europe and the whole world. For example, one new energy value chain is to produce electricity with offshore wind turbines and use the electricity to electrolyte water to generate hydrogen. For such new applications with novel technologies, one challenge is the unstableness full of uncertainties, which can be amplified by the natural hazards and extreme climate events. It is thus important to manage such risks by investigating how those new technical systems can be impacted by natural disasters and assessing how the performance of the whole value chain of energy production will react when some nodes are greatly weakened in a short time. The aim of this PhD project will be to explore resilience/risk management and production assurance issues related to the above technical facilities and develop decision-making support tools for operation/maintenance optimization of the energy infrastructures.

PhD position summary/title: PhDs in Integrative Global Change Biology
We are looking for two PhD candidates to be part of an interdisciplinary team investigating the physiological vulnerability of European insect communities. The proposed project seeks to understand and predict how insect species will respond to the earth’s rapidly changing climate. Insects are particularly vulnerable to the combined stress of higher temperatures and drier conditions, but little is known about the vulnerability of insect species adapted to different climates. Insect species provide many important ecosystem services, like pollination, and there is growing evidence that insect populations are declining around the world, making the proposed research timely and important. This research project will compare the physiological tolerance of insect species from contrasting climates (northern Norway, central Norway, central France, and southern Spain) to better understand future responses. Because of the potential for there to be cryptic species and because physiological responses can change as a function of the microorganisms living inside and on the surface of insects, DNA metabarcoding will be used to identify insect species and the microorganisms they support. Both PhD positions will involve field and lab work resulting in interdisciplinary training across the fields of ecophysiology, biosystematics, and statistical modeling.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in designing hydrogen resistant metallic materials by additive manufacturing
The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (MTP) has a vacancy for a PhD candidate in the materials research group, with special focus on the design and development of hydrogen resistant metallic materials by additive manufacturing. Hydrogen is considered as a clean energy carrier for the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. However, the application of hydrogen energy can be decelerated due to the inevitable embrittling effect when hydrogen interacts with metal. Additive manufacturing (AM) has shown its uniqueness in producing complex multifunctional components for existing applications. It has also been proposed as a promising approach to develop metallic materials that can tolerant hydrogen damage, not only in the hydrogen value chain, but also for subsea service in the oil and gas sector. Nevertheless, little is known about hydrogen embrittlement resistance of AM materials. In this project, you are expected to employ the state-of-the-art testing techniques developed at MTP, to study both the AM and conventional metallic materials, for instance high-strength steels and nickel alloys, on:

At the Research Division “Analysis and Control of Microbial Systems” (ACMS) of the Department of Biotechnology and Food Science (IBT) and Faculty of Natural Sciences (NV) at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), we look for a PhD candidate with a scientific drive to jointly investigate the microbial ecology of phototrophic mixed cultures. Phototrophic microorganisms are central within natural biogeochemical cycles. Environmental biotechnologies using phototrophs raise interest for capturing (in)organics and nutrients from residuals and valorising them into beneficial products for the circular economy, while protecting the water chain and minimizing greenhouse impacts. Inside these colourful microbiomes, we will elucidate how phototrophs establish their metabolic niches across substrate and light gradients, using mixed-culture biotechnology, functional multi-omics, and mathematical models.
