PhD positions in Structural Health Monitoring of Welded Thermoplastic Composite Assemblies

University of Twente (UT)

  • Enschede, Netherlands
  • Engineering » Aerospace engineering Engineering » Mechanical engineering

Thermoplastic composites are widely regarded as promising materials for the next generation of commercial aircraft, combining excellent mechanical performance with low weight. In addition, their melt-processable matrix enables automated, high-rate manufacturing of components that can subsequently be assembled into complex aerostructures using welding. This provides significant opportunities for more efficient and cost-effective aircraft manufacturing. However, welded composite assemblies are challenging to inspect using conventional non-destructive inspection techniques. As a result, larger sa

EngD position: AI for Underground Infrastructure Detection and Characterisation

University of Twente (UT)

  • Enschede, Netherlands
  • Engineering » Civil engineering Engineering » Computer engineering

In this EngD project, you will develop an AI model that automatically detects underground infrastructure in GPR radargrams and estimates its depth. The project builds on the growing availability of high-quality GPR data collected at the University of Twente’s Utility Mapping Site (UMS), a unique test environment for utility mapping technologies. Current machine learning models and their training data are limited in size, comprehensiveness, and realism – resulting in partial automation with limited performance. This constrains their usefulness in real-world conditions. Your challenge is to deve
