Application process
- The Chair in Nonlinear Dynamics at ETH Zürich is inviting applications for a 100% PhD position in the development and application of nonlinear dynamical systems methods for complex physical problems known only from data.
- The objective is to provide efficient, theoretically sound, fast, and directly interpretable alternative in modelling to the black-box approach of neural networks. Job description
- The selected candidate will work on the furhter development of spectral submanifold (SSM) methods, aiming to further develop concepts in nonlinear model reduction
- Possible research directions include the development of nonlinear modelling and control approaches for fluid-structure interactions, material with memory, soft robotics, tele-operated systems, lightweight space structures, and turbulent flows
- Ongoing and prior work in related areas by the Chair in Nonlinear Dynamics can be found at the group website
- The position will be based at either the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering or the Department of Mathematics, depending on the candidate’s background and preferences
- The starting date is flexible but an early start is preferred Profile
- The successful candidate is expected to have a master's degree in mechanical engineering, applied mathematics, physics, or related areas
