Research Fellow (AEM)
This project aims to model the structural response of reinforced concrete structures under different impact loading conditions. The eventual structural response ranges from having localized damaged components, to a partial or total collapse of the building.
The candidate is expected to:
- Perform a thorough literature review of available data and available modelling methods that can reproduce a realistic collapse scenario
- Develop a systematic modelling approach for the selected modelling platform
- Validate the modelling approach
- Perform numerical parametric studies and develop design guidelines for structural robustness
Job Requirements
- Possess a PhD degree in a relevant field, with demonstrated experience in the following:
- Structural robustness and progressive collapse of RC structures.
- Modelling of structural response under column loss scenarios.
- Large deformation kinematics of rigid bodies.
- Strong written and spoken communications.
- Open to fixed-term contract.
