PhD position summary/title:– PhD candidate for Constitutive Modelling of Rate-Effects in Sensitive Clays
The aim is to unravel the anthropogenic and natural processes, and their relative importance, for triggering shallow landslides in sensitive clays. The focus will be on developing computational models that will quantify the mechanisms, precursors and the time to failure. This will be achieved by combining advanced experimental probing with the development of constitutive models that capture the rate-dependent (creep and porewater pressure) response of sensitive clays. Thus, we will be able to understand and quantify the triggers and precursors for shallow slides in sensitive clays as a function of time (>100 years).

PhD position summary/title:–PhD in recruitment and equality in science and engineering education
This PhD project will focus on understanding the arena for broadened recruitment and participation in STEM university education, from policy to practice. Patterns of participation in STEM disciplines are inequitable, including a lack of gender equality and representation of marginalized populations. Research has often focused on student experiences and social norms influencing equality, but we see a need for research that aims at understanding the role of other actors and factors in this arena. The goal is to understand how the problem of equal participation in STEM is represented in these other contexts, and what practices follow from this. This includes political policymaking, university organisation, and concrete outreach activities. We envision a PhD project that focuses on some part of this arena, using research approaches that could include for example textual/discourse analysis, interviews, participant observation and co-creative methods. The exact design of the project will be decided by the student together with the supervisors.

PhD position summary/title:–PhD position in modeling of functional surface and interface phenomena
To interpret experiments and exploit materials for next-generation devices, it is crucial to understand surface and interface properties, which can differ from bulk material properties. You will combine symmetry analysis with electronic structure and atomistic modeling to predict localized phenomena that emerge due to the low symmetry and dimensionality of surfaces. The project will also focus on developing more realistic surface models, for example by including magnetic and atomistic reconstructions, to improve interpretations of surface-sensitive experiments.
As a PhD student in this role, you will focus on modeling solid-state surface and interface phenomena, with an emphasis on magnetic and topological properties. This research has potential for both improved interpretation of experiments, and design of “spintronics” devices with improved robustness and efficiency compared to traditional electronics. You will use theoretical tools including symmetry analysis, DFT, tight-binding, and depending on project progression, machine learning. You will collaborate locally and internationally with groups in both theory and experiment. You will disseminate your findings by publishing in scientific journals and presenting at conferences.

About Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden –Official Website
Chalmers University of Technology is a Swedish university located in Gothenburg that focuses on research and education in technology, natural sciences, architecture, mathematics, maritime and other management areas.
The university was founded in 1829 following a donation by William Chalmers, a director of the Swedish East India Company. He donated part of his fortune for the establishment of an “industrial school”. Chalmers was run as a private institution until 1937, when the institute became a state-owned university. In 1994, the school was incorporated as an aktiebolag under the control of the Swedish Government, the faculty and the Student Union. Chalmers is one of only three universities in Sweden which are named after a person, the other two being Karolinska Institutet and Linnaeus University.
