PhD position summary/title: PhD Position in Observational Earthquake Seismology
In this project, you will develop the next-level seismic inference methods that are tailored for the largest planned experiment at the BULGG lab so far: the ERC Synergy Project Fault Activation and Earthquake Rupture (FEAR) aims to induce a 50m long seismic rupture (magnitude ~0.5) under controlled conditions. The core of this PhD project is to develop and optimise the methods for monitoring:
- seismic precursory signals
- the “main shock” itself, and
- the post-event response of the experimental volume, and to analyse the resulting data products (seismicity catalogues, seismic source descriptions, etc.).

PhD position summary/title: Ph.D. candidate for developing, modelling, and optimising new concepts for high-power pulse generators for geothermal energy
We are looking for outstanding, highly motivated individuals interested in pursuing Ph.D. research in the interdisciplinary area of pulse generator (modulator) systems. The research topic focusses on the development of new concepts for pulsed power modulators, which should generate pulses with a very fast pulse rise times (<100ns), with a pulse amplitude in the range of hundreds of kilovolt, and with a high pulsed output power of more than 100MW. With the modulator system, new drilling concepts for cost efficient drilling of very deep holes required for enabling a broad application of geothermal energy for base load energy provision are investigated. Besides the development of the basic modulator concept, the Ph.D. position involves also the detailed modelling and optimisation of the modulator system. For verifying the concept and the models, laboratory scale test systems are built and operated in our medium voltage laboratory. After a successful test, a full-scale prototype system should be built in collaboration with industry partners and other research institutes.
