Postdoc In Resilient 6G Wireless Networks

Introduction
Are you interested to advance the research on resilient 6G connectivity for mission-critical applications, and contribute to innovative European and Dutch national projects together with a team of talented PhD researchers?

Job Description
The future 6G vision published by IMT-2030 6G framework puts a special emphasis on network resilience. While reliability guarantees consistent network performance, on the other hand, resiliency refers to the network’s ability to recover from disruptions and failures. Network resiliency will ensure that networks not only withstand known failures, attacks, overburdening and shocks, but should also have the capabilities to overcome the unexpected failures and can recover and evolve to ensure a sustained network operation. Network resiliency is expected to be an important KPI for 6G networks due to the ever-increasing dependence of the critical services and infrastructures such as energy, education, healthcare and emergency services on mobile and wireless networks.

At the advanced networking Lab of the Electrical Engineering Department of TU/e, we are working at the cutting edge of technological research and innovation to push the boundaries of reliability and resiliency of mobile and wireless networks through participation in several European and Dutch national projects. Our key research areas include ultra-reliable low latency communications, resource allocation, digital twins, distributed massive MIMO and flexible compute continuum for 6G RAN open architectures. The Advanced Networking Lab is a member of the Center for Wireless Technology Eindhoven (CWTe) which is part of the Department of Electrical Engineering. Researchers from the groups Electromagnetic, Integrated Circuits, Signal Processing Systems, Optical Communication, and Electronic Systems, work together to address research questions across these research areas from the wireless channel through various layers of the communication stack (www.tue.nl/cwte). The laboratory facilities include fully opensource OpenRAN-compliant 5G/6G testbed with commercial radio units (RUs) and software-defined radios, a fully shielded metal room in which the most sensitive electronics can be measured, a 28 m2 anechoic chamber (500MHz-40GHz), system integration lab where chips can be linked to other components, and a 16-channel distributed MIMO testbed (sub-6 GHz).

Our industry-driven research empowers real world use-cases and applications ranging from wireless factory to wireless intra-aircraft communications, Tele-operations to unmanned offshore vehicles, and edge computing on satellite swarms to emergency health care, to name a few. The common characteristics of these applications/use-cases are the stringent wireless connectivity requirements in terms of resiliency, latency, and reliability. Within this context, we are looking for an exceptional postdoctoral candidate to advance the resiliency and reliability of beyond-5G/6G networks. The candidate is expected to work on the European project PHRESH (https://itea4.org/index.php/project/phresh.html) and the Dutch National Growth Fund project Luchtvaart in transitie (LiT, Home | Luchtvaart in Transitie). The successful candidate will contribute to the development, analysis, and experimental validation of techniques and algorithms to ensure seamless, reliable, and secure wireless communication in challenging and dynamic environments. The key responsibilities for this positions are listed as the following:

• Develop protocols and algorithms to enhance the network's situational awareness; and detect, mitigate and recover from disruptions (e.g., jamming, attacks, misconfigurations, failures).
• Advance the research on the design and evaluation of resilient wireless systems utilizing techniques such as multi-connectivity (Terrestrial and NTN), spectrum sensing, optimization theory, AI/ML, etc.
• Participate in collaborative research projects with Industry, contribute to teaching at BSc/MSc levels, and mentoring of undergraduate or master's students.
• Drive project management activities and writing/coordinating deliverables for the projects.
• Supervise a team of PhD researchers and ensure cohesion and timely delivery of the team’s output to the given projects.
• Coordinate experimental activities in laboratories and maintain testbed and equipment readiness
• Contribute with new ideas, coordination and editing scientific proposals for new funding opportunities.

The mission of the Department of Electrical Engineering is to acquire, share and transfer knowledge and understanding in the whole field of Electrical Engineering through education, research and valorization. We work towards a ‘Smart Sustainable Society’, a ‘Connected World’, and a healthy humanity (‘Care & Cure’). Activities share an application-oriented character, a high degree of complexity and a large synergy between multiple facets of the field.

Research is carried out into the applications of electromagnetic phenomena in all forms of energy conversion, telecommunication and electrical signal processing. Existing and new electrical components and systems are analyzed, designed and built. The Electrical Engineering department takes its inspiration from contacts with high-tech industry in the direct surrounding region and beyond.

The department is innovative and has international ambitions and partnerships. The result is a challenging and inspiring setting in which socially relevant issues are addressed.

PhD on ML accelerated simulations and uncertainty quantification of composites

Introduction
We are hiring! We have an open position for a PhD candidate in the exciting area of multiscale and multiphysics modelling of sustainable fibrous composites, with additional focus on uncertainty quantification and machine learning.

Job Description

• The context: Natural fiber reinforced materials are increasingly used as environmentally friendly alternatives for composite materials, due to the sustainability and circularity of the natural fibers (e.g. hemp, flex, bamboo). Natural fiber reinforced composites have applications in different engineering fields, including construction (used for insulation and load bearing members), automotive (used for interior components), and consumer products (e.g. in sporting products). The natural fibers used in these composites are sensitive to moisture-induced and chemical degradation. Moreover, they exhibit a high degree of variability in their composition and microstructure, which results in variability in their mechanical, thermal, and diffusion properties. Therefore, predictive modeling of the performance of these composites is a multidisciplinary problem centered around computational mechanics and engineering, potentially involving (i) multiphysics problems, (ii) multiscale methods, (iii) uncertainty quantification and (iv) machine learning.
• The project will focus on one or a combination of the following focus areas, tailored to the candidate’s expertise and interests:
  
  • Developing numerical models for the coupled mechanical-diffusive(-thermal-chemical) behavior of fiber-reinforced composites at the micro/meso-scale. These models will incorporate uncertainty via stochastic inputs, such as random field representations of spatially varying material properties. The resulting response will be analyzed using techniques such as Monte Carlo simulations.
  • Identifying the variability of the model parameters using Bayesian inference.
  • Quantifying the impact of microscale uncertainties on macroscale material performance through stochastic homogenization and uncertainty propagation methods, including Monte Carlo and Gaussian Process-based approaches.
  • o Integrating machine learning techniques to replace computationally expensive simulations and enable faster predictions while preserving uncertainty information.
• The successful candidate will work in the chair of Applied Mechanics, Department of the Built Environment, under the supervision of dr. Emanuela Bosco and dr. Payam Poorsolhjouy, as well as dr. Lars Beex (University of Luxembourg) . The chair of Applied Mechanics is responsible for education and research in the field of mechanics, working on multiscale, multi-physics and optimization problems related to the built environment. The chair is a member of the Graduate School of Engineering Mechanics, Netherlands. This graduate school offers PhD students an advanced training program in engineering mechanics, the core of which is a joint series of advanced graduate courses closely connected to state-of-the-art research themes.
• The successful candidate will interact closely with other PhD students (numerical and experimental) who work on other aspects of the mechanical and multiphysics behavior of heterogeneous materials.

Job Requirements

• A talented, motivated and enthusiastic researcher. Analytical skills, initiative and creativity are highly desired.
• A MSc-degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computational Mechanics, Mathematical Engineering or equivalent is required.
• A strong background in mechanics of materials and multi-scale and multi-physics methods is highly desired.
• Additional expertise in uncertainty quantification and/or machine learning techniques is advantageous.
• Interest to work in an interdisciplinary project that incorporates different fields of expertise, including analytical/computational frameworks, uncertainty quantification, and machine learnig to solve problems with significant social and industrial impact is beneficial.
• Excellent oral and writing skills in English are required (C1 level).

Conditions of Employment
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

• Full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate assessment after nine months. You will spend a minimum of 10% of your four-year employment on teaching tasks, with a maximum of 15% per year of your employment.
