Context & Job description

Thesis subject: Advanced 3D Characterization of Deformed and Recrystallized Microstructures in Highly Strained Metals

As a PhD student, you will play a crucial role in the investigation of the connection between deformation and annealing microstructures in metals, addressing the challenge of mapping deformed and recrystallized microstructures in 3D at industrial deformation levels. This project, co-financed by the ERC Starting Grant Project "D-REX," aims to utilize advanced X-ray microscopy techniques at the ID03 beamline of the ESRF to study dislocation structures, subgrain evolution, and recrystallization in highly strained metals. You will be enrolled at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and spend approximately your time at ESRF and at DTU.

Responsibilities include:

Conducting experiments using Dark Field X-ray Microscopy (DFXM) and 3DXRD to map deformed grains and track subgrain evolution during deformation. Performing high-resolution 3D mapping of deformation structures in metals such as Fe-3%Si alloy and commercially pure nickel. Analyzing strain states at different deformation levels and identifying the evolution of deformation structures. Carrying out annealing experiments to capture the onset of nucleation in terms of strain and stored energy. Integrating experimental data with computational simulations to validate and compare findings.

Expected profile

You are enthusiastic about X-ray imaging, physical metallurgy, and scientific computing. You thrive in collaborative environments, possess strong problem-solving skills, and demonstrate the ability to work both efficiently and independently.

To be considered for this position, you should possess the following qualifications:

A Master’s degree in physics, materials science, or a related field. Experience in experimental X-ray techniques and programming. Demonstrated interest in materials science and deformation analysis. Ability to collaborate with a multidisciplinary team and facility users. Proficiency in English

Working conditions

The salary will be calculated on the basis of relevant qualifications and professional experience.
