Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department of Applied Physics
Eindhoven, (Noord-Brabant), 40 hours per week
Job description
Friction and adhesion between surfaces play an increasingly important
role in a wide range of technological applications, including gears,
packaging, barriers, membranes, sensors, and medical implants. Despite
intensive research spanning many decades, the molecular origins of
friction remain unclear. Often polymers are employed for minimising
wear and friction between solid surfaces, simply by grafting the right
type of polymers to them. The PhD candidate will perform
molecular-dynamics computer simulations of thin polymer layers made of
three generic model polymers: linear and cross-linked polyethylene and
amorphous atactic polystyrene, in a melt and glassy (or
semicrystalline) state. The supporting substrates will be
structureless or will be represented by crystalline lattices. The aim
of this project is to address this problem by a combination of cyclic
shear experiments in the plastic regime and direct atomistic computer
simulations of sheared polymer films on the nanoscale.
Requirements Required education/skills:University Graduate
Candidates should have an interest in statistical physics or
thermodynamics and hold a Master's degree in Physics, Chemistry,
Materials Science, or equivalent, and have a strong affinity towards
collaboration with experimentalists and engineers from industry.
Job type: Research / Advising
Workfield(s):
- Teaching & Research
