Job Description

About the Job

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

The successful candidate will work on a PhD project focusing on fire safety and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling of fire development.

About the Project

The project aims to develop a better understanding of fire dynamics and behavior, which is crucial for designing safer buildings and mitigating the consequences of fires.

The research will involve theoretical investigations using CFD, as well as collaboration and participation in experimental work.

Closing collaboration and communication with relevant actors in the FRIC network will help optimize the impact of the work in the relevant areas.

  • Engage in theoretical research, computational and practical experimental work.
  • Perform mandatory coursework as part of the PhD education.
  • Plan and execute comprehensive, independent research under supervision.
  • Interact and collaborate with researchers and FRIC partners.
  • Communicate results effectively through research journal publications, conference presentations and other forms of communication.
  • Submit and defend a doctoral thesis.
