Postdoctoral Researcher in Non-destructive X-ray

hace 2 semanas


Madrid, España IMDEA materials A tiempo completo

**DESCRIPTION**:
The postdoctoral researcher will be jointly appointed in the Modeling & Simulation of Materials Processing group and the In-situ Processing & Mechanical Characterization of Materials at IMDEA Materials Institute. The work will focus on X-ray image analysis, optimization and image quantification for 3D tomography of 3D-printed (additively manufactured) compositionally-graded metallic materials, as well as time-resolved X-ray radiography and tomography of in situ directional solidification experiments of metallic alloys. The applicant will participate in the optimization of singular in-situ devices for laboratory and synchrotron X-ray computed tomography (XCT) developed at IMDEA.

The job will aim at leveraging X-ray radiography and tomography techniques as a non-destructive technique for the determination of complex microstructures and of microstructure evolution (from in situ solidification experiments) using time-resolved X-ray imaging. For this purpose, the project will use both laboratory and synchrotron X-ray tomography techniques.

The work involves material processing, X-ray characterization, data analysis and programming. Therefore, a high interest in programming is mandatory. Some programming knowledge (preferably in python) is desirable, as well as in machine learning techniques, data visualization, image analysis.
- Performing 3D analysis of microstructures (e.g. phases) and defects (e.g. porosity, cracks) in 3D printed compositionally graded materials
- Microstructure analysis of 3D X-ray computed tomography volumes
- Image analysis of in-situ X-ray radiographies from directional solidification
- Optimizing the design of two homemade furnaces for in-situ X-ray radiography and tomography furnaces for directional solidification
- Developing innovative methodologies for image processing

**REQUIREMENTS**:

- Doctoral degree (or close to obtaining) in experimental Materials Science & Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related fields.
- Knowledge in programming (Labview, Python, Matlab, C++, etc.)
- Knowledge in CAD design software (FreeCAD, AutoCAD, CATIA, etc.)
- High level of English is mandatory (oral and written)
- Knowledge of metallic materials
- Curiosity and initiative

**CONDITIONS**:

- Full-time 6 month contract
- Start date: Available immediately, position open until filled.

**ADDITIONAL INFORMATION**

The working language of the Institute is English. Full command of the English language is required in all positions.

Besides on-the-job technical training, IMDEA Materials Institute is committed to training the Institute’s scientists and staff in “soft” or transversal skills. See the available training here.
