DC6 - Self-tuning variable length systems for the vibration reduction of wind blades
The project aims at delivering novel methods for simulating the complex nonlinear dynamics of Variable-Length Systems (VLS) and further investigate the optimum number and placement of the VLS along the wind turbine blade and the evaluation of blade vibration reduction capabilities in view of enhanced blade high-cycle fatigue performance.
We are seeking a passionate, curious, and enthusiastic new team member committed to addressing climate change by advancing renewable energy systems. We are looking for someone who thrives on solving complex problems, isn't afraid to ask challenging questions, and possesses the determination to pursue innovative solutions in a rapidly evolving field. Applicants must hold a master's degree or single-cycle degree obtained no more than six years prior to the deadline for applications. This funding call is open to all EU and International applicants.
We strongly encourage an inclusive culture. We promote equality of opportunity, value diversity and nurture a working and learning environment in which the rights and dignity of all our staff and students are respected.

This project is part of the Met2Adapt Doctoral Network. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (Horizon Europe, Grant Agreement No. 101227175), Met2Adapt aims to recruit 16 PhD candidates who will be employed by one of the 10 partner institutions across Europe.
Met2Adapt puts forward an ambitious research and training plan that will foster a new generation of researchers able to design and deliver sustainable meta-materials for vibration mitigation, self-aware meta-components and eventually carbon-efficient yet safe meta-structures for the renewable energy sector. The focal point of this research will be the deployment of custom-fit solutions for infrastructure that is critical to the European energy resilience, i.e. offshore and onshore wind farms, and wave-energy converters.
In addition, please note the following eligibility requirements and mobility rules:
- Applicants must not already have successfully defended a doctoral thesis, or be in possession of a doctoral degree, at the date of the recruitment.
- Applicants must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Italy for more than 12 months in the 36 months immediately before the date of recruitment.
Salary: The MSCA Doctoral Network fellowship is for three years and provides generous remuneration in line with the EC rules for grant holders.
Secondments: All Doctoral Candidates will be seconded to industrial or academic associated partners for a period of up to 6 months. Secondments are tailored to the individual requirements of each project.
We look forward to your applications!
