Our work is interdisciplinary by nature and is addressing topics that have a direct impact on sustainability. The division is collaborating closely with other universities and research institutes and is implementing industry-academia partnerships through collaborative projects and strategic initiatives such as the National Competence Centre for Additive Manufacturing – Metal (CAM2) and the Chalmers Centre for Metal Cutting Research (MCR).

PhD position summary/title: PhD Student Position in Human Body Models for Safer Seat Belts for All Occupants
The project’s objective is to advance the SAFER Human Body Model (HBM) as a tool for developing adaptive and existing restraint systems, ultimately making vehicle travel safer. Key goals include developing test methods and providing design recommendations for restraint systems.
A specific focus of the project is improving the belt-to-occupant interaction by enhancing the shoulder region of the SAFER HBM. This involves using data from innovative volunteer tests to model bone positioning and shoulder stiffness accurately. Additionally, the project will develop safety assessment methods tailored to various passenger sizes, genders, seating postures, seat positions, and levels of vehicle automation.

PhD position summary/title: PhD student position in Machine Learning for Proteins
The current position is associated with the Wallenberg (DDLS-WASP) project Machine-Learning how our Cells Capture Energy – Data-Driven Studies of Membrane Protein Function, Evolution, and Disease. We are looking for a PhD with a strong quantitative background and hands-on experience in either machine learning force field estimation or modern generative models, who is eager about making a difference in our understanding if protein function. The selected candidate will work in the AIMLeNS lab under the supervision of Asc. Prof. Dr. Simon Olsson at Chalmers University of Technology, in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Kaila’s lab at Stockholm University. The project combines ML approaches with computational, biochemical, biophysical, and structural data to understand how proteins drive the energy metabolism of our cells, the evolutionary processes that led to the emergence of these complex biological systems, and how disease-related mutations alter protein function.

PhD position summary/title: PhD student position in High-Fidelity Flow Simulations for Aeronautics
As a PhD student, you will contribute to developing methodologies for a design framework tailored to future aeronautic systems.
This research is part of the nationally funded project “Large-Eddy Simulation in Aeronautical Applications; Wall Modeling, Robustness, Accuracy, and Efficiency (LESisMORE),” involving SAAB Aeronautics, Chalmers, KTH, and NSC. You will work on integrating scale-resolving flow simulations into SAAB’s design framework, advancing a more digitalized process for design, validation, and certification of next-generation aerial vehicles.
A key outcome of the LESisMORE project is GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) accelerated wall-modeled large-eddy simulation capabilities for aeronautical applications. Your research will also focus on turbulence modeling using physics-informed machine learning. The long-term aim is to enable high-fidelity simulations as a standard in design processes.

About Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden –Official Website
Chalmers University of Technology is a Swedish university located in Gothenburg that focuses on research and education in technology, natural sciences, architecture, mathematics, maritime and other management areas.
The university was founded in 1829 following a donation by William Chalmers, a director of the Swedish East India Company. He donated part of his fortune for the establishment of an “industrial school”. Chalmers was run as a private institution until 1937, when the institute became a state-owned university. In 1994, the school was incorporated as an aktiebolag under the control of the Swedish Government, the faculty and the Student Union. Chalmers is one of only three universities in Sweden which are named after a person, the other two being Karolinska Institutet and Linnaeus University.
