Läs mer Jan 16
We are looking for a postdoc to join our team at the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, Department of Mathematical Sciences, and contribute to research on stochastic and statistical models for large-scale shape variability and interaction.

About us 
The Department of Mathematical Sciences offers a research and teaching environment that is both academically strong and collegial, where mathematical theory, education, and engagement with society are pursued in close connection. We are Sweden's largest mathematical department, with around 200 dedicated staff. The department is a joint venture between Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg, bringing together an engineering-oriented technical university and a general research university with close links to a major university hospital. 

Within the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, research spans computational mathematics, optimisation, biomathematics, statistics, and data science, with sustained links to engineering, the natural sciences, and applications in medicine and life sciences.

About the research project? 
The research project develops stochastic and statistical models for large ensembles of interacting shapes. Motivating examples include the spatio-temporal dynamics of sweat droplets, interacting cellular or tissue shapes, and geometric structures arising in vegetation such as tree canopies. The work combines spatial point process models for the emergence and arrangement of objects (including birth-death dynamics, merging, and non-overlap constraints) with methods from shape analysis, in particular stochastic dynamics for shape change. A further aspect of the project is learning and calibrating these models from data using data-driven inference methods.

Postdoc in Model-based Systems Engineering Design

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB
Doktorand
Läs mer Dec 22
Do you want to contribute to groundbreaking and collaborative research on how to design and integrate of technologies into whole systems using MBSE  - Model Based Systems Engineering? This is an exciting opportunity for a postdoctoral position at the Division of Product Development, Department of Industrial and Materials Science , focused on innovative research in Systems Engineering Design. 

About the research project 






The position addresses a central research challenge in which design of whole-jet engine systems depend on the characteristics of subsystem materials and manufacturing technologies.

The core scientific challenge is to develop MBSE approaches that can represent and exploit both the opportunities and constraints introduced by advanced materials and manufacturing technologies, with particular emphasis on additive manufacturing. While these technologies enable new design freedoms such as increased functional integration, improved thermal management, and reduced part count they also introduce constraints related to material characteristics, process-induced variability, residual stresses, surface integrity, inspection and qualification requirements, and sustainability. Capturing these effects in whole-engine, system-level models remains an open research problem. Ultimately, MBSE models for conceptual design must be capable of representing system behavior arising from alternative subsystem concepts and architectures.

The postdoctoral researcher will focus on integrating material and manufacturing behavior with mechanical and thermal performance models, manufacturability considerations, and sustainability metrics within a system-of-systems perspective. The work will investigate how physics-based models, reduced-order representations, and datadriven approaches can be combined and embedded in MBSE frameworks to support earlystage architectural decisions, tradeoff analyses, and system validation for small jet engine concepts.

The research will include the development of modeling strategies that connect material properties and manufacturing process parameters including additive manufacturing to component-level behavior and overall engine system performance using state-of-the-art MBSE methods and tools. Particular attention will be given to how manufacturing-enabled design freedoms and constraints propagate through the system architecture, influencing thermal behavior, structural integrity, reliability, cost, and environmental impact across the life cycle.

The position will also address challenges related to model fidelity, uncertainty, design margins, and traceability. This includes representing manufacturing constraints and material behavior in forms suitable for system-level reasoning, and ensuring consistency between detailed simulations, experimental data, and higher-level system models. The researcher is expected to contribute to methodological advances in MBSE that strengthen the integration of multi-physics and manufacturing knowledge into industrially applicable system models.

The position is part of a collaborative research initiative involving Chalmers, GKN Aerospace, and KTH, focused on the development of an experimental jet engine demonstrator for system validation. The postdoctoral researcher will work closely with industrial and academic partners, contributing MBSE expertise while grounding the research in practical engineering challenges. Expected outcomes include novel MBSE methodologies, high-quality scientific publications, and contributions to industrial development practices, supporting the development of manufacturable and sustainable small jet engine architectures and long-term competence building in aerospace systems engineering.

About the research project?  
City digital twins require more than visually plausible models: they require analysis?ready geometry for simulation and decision support. This PhD project develops methods to generate LOD3 urban surface meshes from heterogeneous geospatial data such as LiDAR point clouds, aerial orthophotos, street?level imagery, and map/cadastral information. A central requirement is topological correctness—watertight, manifold meshes without self?intersections and with consistent connectivity—together with quantifiable accuracy and scalability to city?wide deployment.

The research combines machine learning with geometry processing and mathematical analysis. You will develop learning?based models (e.g., sparse 3D CNNs and related architectures) for multi?modal interpretation and reconstruction, and design topology?aware meshing and refinement algorithms that support hierarchical levels of detail. The theoretical component includes convergence and error bounds for refinement, conditions for topological validity, robustness to noisy measurements, and stability/generalization guarantees for learning?based mesh generation.

Software will be developed with research?grade engineering practices and released as open?source components in the DTCC Platform, enabling direct use in applications such as wind comfort (CFD), urban heat and solar studies, flood and noise simulations, infrastructure management, and AR/VR visualization.

The following requirements are mandatory:

• To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in Mathematics with at least one course in differential geometry. Alternatively, you expect to complete such a degree by September 1, 2026.

In this project, you will learn to combine modern analysis techniques like Morawetz estimates with Penrose's Nobel prize winning geometrical insights and formalisms, intricate symmetry operators, spinor techniques and powerful computer algebra tools to efficiently study these problems. A particularly useful technique is to study how different kinds of symmetries can characterize a spacetime and give a manifestly coordinate independent way to measure metric perturbations. The symmetries also yield powerful analysis tools. The nature of the tools also allows broad applicability to other PDE problems.

The research project is funded by the Swedish Research Council and will be supervised by Associate Professor Thomas Bäckdahl.

Doctoral student in number theory or harmonic analysis

We are looking for one Doctoral student at the divison of Algebra and Geometry. The research project will be at the interface of number theory and harmonic analysis and will be conducted within the research group of Simon Rydin Myerson.

About us 
The Department of Mathematical Sciences at the Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg has about 200 employees and is the largest department of mathematics in Sweden. We have an international environment with frequent exchanges with other universities around the world. We provide a friendly, creative, and supportive atmosphere with a steady flow of international guests. Equality and diversity are substantial foundations in all our activities. We work actively to be a parent-friendly organization.

At the Division of Algebra and Geometry we conduct research in areas such as algebraic geometry, complex geometry, number theory, mathematical physics and the mathematics of AI.

About the research project? 
Many open questions in number theory, such as the Manin-Peyre conjecture, concern Diophantine equations. Even certain questions in harmonic analysis and PDE can be understood as Diophantine problems.

This project will use analytic techniques to study problems concerning polynomials in (algebraic or rational) integers. An extension or alternative is to use these Diophantine techniques to tackle problems in harmonic analysis or PDE, especially spectral multiplier estimates on compact manifolds and nilmanifolds.

The doctoral student could establish existence of solutions using modern forms of the Birch-Davenport circle method, or prove upper bounds using the sieve or determinant methods. Systems of equations with differing degrees, and cubic equations in three integer variables, are current frontiers in this area.

As a Doctoral student you will be part of an international research environment while you expand your knowledge of the field and write your thesis. This gives opportunities for many inspiring conversations, a lot of autonomous work and some travel. You are expected to develop your own ideas and communicate scientific results orally as well as in written form.

• You will need strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
• The project requires knowledge in either number theory, harmonic analysis, or algebraic geometry. It is advantageous to have knowledge in all of these fields.

*for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted.

Doctoral student in computational modelling of zinc-metal batteries

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB
Doktorand
Läs mer Dec 18
Electrochemical energy storage based on abundant and recyclable materials will play a central role in the green transition toward a fossil-free energy system. As a doctoral student in the Stenlid lab, you will use advanced computational chemistry and materials modelling to understand and learn to control interfacial reactions in renewable aqueous zinc-metal batteries in close collaboration with experimental groups. The project integrates theoretical chemistry, electrochemistry, and surface science, contributing to the development of advanced battery technologies while supporting your growth as an independent researcher.

Project overview
Rechargeable aqueous zinc-metal batteries offer a promising route toward affordable, safe, and sustainable energy storage based on abundant and recyclable materials, aligned with European value chains. However, large-scale deployment is hindered by parasitic interfacial reactions at the zinc–electrolyte interface, including dendrite formation, corrosion, and by-product generation. Unlike Li-ion batteries, the targeted zinc batteries operate in aqueous, pH-dependent environments. A mechanistic, atomic-scale understanding of interfacial chemistry is essential for achieving durable and recyclable zinc-metal batteries.

You will join the Stenlid lab at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. The lab tackles fundamental questions in surface- and electrochemistry aiming to design materials for (electro)catalytic and energy storage applications supporting a sustainable society. The project is a partnership with the Maibach group at the Chalmers Division of Materials Physics, contributing advanced materials characterization, electrochemical analysis, and testing of the battery cells.

As a member of the Stenlid lab, you will be exposed to a broad range of computational methodologies, ranging from atomistic and electronic-structure–based materials modeling and characterization, via machine-learning and high-throughput methods, to ab initio calculation of electrochemical reaction kinetics.

Postdoc in Integrated Circuits for Full-Duplex Communication and Sensing

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB
Forskarassistent
Läs mer Dec 18
Join us as a postdoc at the Microwave Electronics Laboratory to solve one of the toughest challenges in modern RF design: eliminating self-interference to enable true In-Band Full-Duplex for MIMO systems!  

About us 
The Microwave Electronics Laboratory (MEL) is one of the largest divisions at the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience. At MEL we are more than 40 people performing world-class research on high speed electronic components, circuits, and systems for a wide range of communication, industrial, and remote sensing applications in the frequency range from 1 GHz to 500 GHz and beyond. Our facilities include a uniquely well-equipped laboratory for advanced microwave, millimeter wave, and sub-terahertz measurements.

About the research project? 
In-band full-duplex (IBFD) enables simultaneous transmission and reception on the same frequency band. While this promises major gains in spectral efficiency and new application domains, it introduces one of the most challenging problems in RF design: cancelling or mitigating the strong self-interference caused by transmitter leakage into the co-located receiver. The challenge is even greater in modern systems using (massive) MIMO, which has so far limited the practical adoption of IBFD.

In this postdoctoral project, you will investigate novel integrated microwave circuit architectures that address the front-end challenges of IBFD in MIMO systems. The research will focus on the 7–20 GHz frequency range and will involve both RFIC/CMOS and MMIC implementations. You will have access to state-of-the-art semiconductor technologies and world-class measurement facilities at the Kollberg Laboratory.

You will be a key contributor to in a multi-disciplinary and international project where researchers with expertise in antennas, RF circuits, and digital signal processing collaborate towards co-optimized solutions that maximize full-duplex MIMO performance.

Forskarassistent
Läs mer Dec 17
Postdoc position in urban design and planning, Transition labs Lindholmen and Kronoberg

This postdoctoral position offers a unique opportunity to work with research on two ongoing spatial transformation projects in Sweden. The projects situated in two different geographical contexts aim to develop methods for local transformation of the built environment and organisational development. The outcome is expected to be academic publications in high-impact journals and   implemented knowledge that create concrete impact in the local-context. The projects, Geographical transition lab Göteborg Lindholmen and Vägar till Bygatan, Kronoberg, are supported by multi-level institutional frameworks established around the transition labs within the national innovation program of Shift Sweden. 

About us 
The transition labs in Lindholmen and Kronoberg address how concrete design and transformation projects and prototypes have impact on the multi-level planning praxis from local to national actors. Lindholmen is located along the Göta river in central Gothenburg with focus on sustainable transition of buildings, urban spaces and mobility solutions. Kronoberg is a region in southeast Sweden where focus will be on the possibilities to develop collaboration between national, regional, municipal and local actors to transform local roads to new public spaces.

In detail, the research projects will investigate how knowledge production from specific projects and prototypes can be reintegrated into the overarching spatial and strategic transformation process. The research will also address the conditions for more advanced multi-level planning and cross-sectoral approaches, where local, municipal, regional and national actors jointly expand the scope for action and solve complex spatial challenges together. The research projects aim to challenge linear perspectives on societal development by emphasizing continuous change, uncertainty, and adaptability, drawing on design- and practice-oriented methodology and ongoing evaluation research.

The work will be carried out at the Division of Urban Design and Planning, in a stimulating research environment with senior researchers, other pos-docs and PhDs, affiliated with the research area Local-Regional Transformations.

The research area of Local-Regional Transformations have a well-established position within the research environment of urban and rural research in Sweden and addresses the processes of making the built environment and its places, landscapes, and infrastructures. We combine a geographical and institutional perspective on spatial transformation and work on the intertwined relationships between the local and the regional. On the one hand, this entails the analysis and evaluation of agglomerations, distributions and flows of people and resources, and the ideological formations and norm systems that impact policy, planning and design. On the other hand, it also entails the development of theories and methods that support architects, urban designers, and planners in the process of transforming the built environment.

Who we are looking for 
The following requirements are mandatory: 

• A doctoral degree or an equivalent foreign degree in Architecture, Urban design or planning with focus on urban and/or rural transformation. This eligibility requirement must be met no later than the time the employment decision is made? 
• Experience in research by design methodologies, action research with public actors and evaluation research

The projects require that you can work with local actors in the contexts. Therefore, you need to be able to communicate fluently in Swedish and English, both in oral and written form. 

What you will do 
As a postdoc, you will be responsible for managing the research projects on a daily basis. You will be working in direct collaboration with the actors that work in the two transition labs, support local transformation processes and engaging in design-oriented actions research. This implies to bring the research process forward independently and lead the writing of scientific articles and reports. The work of will demand that you can visit the project areas frequently and that you are able to meet and engage with different actors in different parts of Sweden. Your findings are expected to be published in high-impact journals, and the methods and data will be made available to researchers and stakeholders through open access.

We expect the applicant to be able to take initiatives, adapt, lead and motivate participants in the on-site projects with a clear direction towards the aim of the over-all research projects. The on-site projects involving external actors will be developed together with senior researchers from the Research area of Local-Regional Transformations.

Contract terms  
The position is a temporary full-time employment for two years with the possibility of a one-year extension. 

The position requires physical presence throughout the entire employment. A valid residence permit must be presented by the start date, otherwise the offer may be withdrawn.

About the research project? 
The continuous miniaturization of silicon-based electronics has driven the technological progress for decades. However, as devices now approach atomic scales, the fundamental laws of physics increasingly hinder further advances. To sustain the pace of innovation, both academia and industry have started exploring alternative materials, devices, and circuit architectures, particularly in the rapidly expanding field of artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator hardware. Atomically thin two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors have emerged as highly promising candidates to either replace or significantly complement silicon in future electronics.

In this project, your doctoral research will focus on developing novel memory and logic transistors based on TMDs. These will target both near-term industrial applications and emerging neuromorphic (brain-inspired) computing architectures. The project covers nanofabrication, electronic device physics, electrical and materials characterization as well as low-level system integration, benefiting from one of the largest cleanrooms in European academia and our uniquely well-equipped electrical characterization laboratory.

We are looking for a Doctoral student to become part of the Langhammer Group at the Division of Chemical Physics at the Department of Physics.? Join our dynamic and cross-diciplinary team and contribute to groundbreaking research by combining nanofluidics with nanophotonics in the context of heterogeneous catalysis and polaritonic chemistry. 

About us 
The Langhammer group operates at the interfaces between nanomaterial science, nanoplasmonics, nanofluidics, label free single-molecule optical microscopy, single particle catalysis and hydrogen nanosensors. For that purpose, we continuously develop and evolve our own methodologies for state-of-the-art nanofabrication, as well as build our own customized research instrumentation.

Now, we are deepening our efforts towards integrating nanofluidic devices with nanophotonic functionalities in the context of heterogeneous catalysis and polaritonic chemistry. For this endeavour we are seeking a highly-motivated and scientifically ambitious PhD candidate to join our dynamic, cross-diciplinary team.

This recruitment is connected to a cross-diciplinary research project funded by the Swedish Research Counsil and executed in collaboration with Prof. Timur Shegai  and Prof. Angela Grommet at Chalmers University.

About the research project? 
In this project, as its main goal, we will merge two paradigms – nanofluidics and nanophotonics – to confine both matter and light in unified tailored nanoarchitectures fabricated into nanofluidic systems that enable direct access to the interior of, for example, optical cavities in a flow-through manner, and that via their fascinating light scattering properties can make individual molecules directly visible. The similar length scales of optical and geometrical confinement combined in these devices will revolutionize both the active control and the nanoscale in situ characterization of photochemical and catalytic processes.

To achieve this ambitious goal, we will build on the project team’s recent achievements in single particle catalysis and single molecule microscopy (Langhammer group: Nat Methods 2022, 19 (6), 751-758; Nat Commun 2019, 10, 4426; ACS Nano 2023, 17, 21030-21043); optical microcavities (Shegai group: Nature 2021, 597, 214-219; Nat Phys 2023, 19, 271-278 ), and modulation of photochemical behavior under confinement (Grommet group: J Am Chem Soc 2020, 142, 14557-14565; Acc Chem Res 2020, 53, 2600-2610).

Postdoc in development of screen printing formulations

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB
Forskarassistent
Läs mer Dec 16
This post-doctoral position offers the opportunity to work with sustainable materials, formulation science and real-world impact, focusing on the development of next-generation screen printing inks that enable recycling by design. You will work at the interface of chemistry, textile science and sustainability within an ambitious EU project, in close collaboration with both academic and industrial partners, contributing to more environmentally responsible textile production.

The main purpose of this post-doctoral project is to develop and study new formulations for screen printing that encompass, by design, a recycling function in the form of a trigger for the detachment, on demand, of the print from the substrate. Currently, most textile prints are non-biobased and strongly limit textile recycling, despite being massively used. Transitioning to biobased alternatives while including an in-built recycling feature could significantly reduce environmental impact and reliance on non-renewable resources.

Despite major advancements towards biobased inks, the On/Off functionality remains a challenge that limits recyclability. To overcome this, the project integrates this new functionality already at the formulation stage, while accounting for the use of biobased components.

About us
The position is located at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering in the Bordes Research Group, which has long experience in formulation research and close collaboration with the company Vividye.

Post-doctoral position in biobased surfactant synthesis

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB
Forskarassistent
Läs mer Dec 16
This post-doctoral position focuses on the development of biobased surfactants using sustainable raw materials as alternatives to conventional petrochemical-derived surfactants. You will work in a research environment where fundamental chemistry is closely connected to real-world applications, contributing to the transition towards more sustainable chemical products.

The main purpose of the project is to develop and study new biobased surfactants derived from renewable feedstocks. Today, most surfactants are synthesized from fossil-based raw materials, and replacing these with biobased alternatives could significantly reduce environmental impact and dependence on non-renewable resources. Despite major advancements in the field, biobased surfactants often face challenges in matching the performance of conventional surfactants, particularly regarding surface activity, stability and formulation efficiency. To address these challenges, the project focuses on developing novel synthesis strategies that enhance functionality and ensure high interfacial activity, stability and industrial relevance.

The position is a 24-month postdoctoral appointment located at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering in the Bordes Research Group, which has long-standing expertise in surfactant research. The position is part of the large EU project SurfToGreen, offering you the opportunity to interact with world-class researchers in a multidisciplinary and international environment.

About us

Research at the Division of Applied Chemistry focuses on energy, materials design, nanotechnology, catalysis and surfactant chemistry, with a strong emphasis on novel surfactants and surfactant-based formulations such as microemulsions and emulsions.

In recent years, particular emphasis has been placed on different classes of amphiphilic substances, including amino acid-based surfactants and switchable or cleavable surfactants. Amino acid-based amphiphiles represent a class of environmentally benign surfactants derived from natural starting materials. They are rapidly biodegradable, exhibit low aquatic toxicity and are mild to the skin. Cleavable surfactants are also environmentally friendly due to functionalities that enable improved recyclability. Current research focuses on new building blocks for environmentally friendly surfactants, with this project placing strong emphasis on correlations between biobased surfactant structures and their properties.

About the research project
In this project, you will design and synthesize new biobased surfactants using renewable building blocks and study their surface-active properties. The work combines synthetic chemistry, physicochemical characterization and structure–property relationships, with relevance for sustainable industrial formulations.

Who we are looking for

We are seeking a postdoc to co-design efficient and realistic simulation algorithms for noisy quantum circuits in superconducting hardware, combining quantum modeling with hardware-aware performance engineering. The work involves simulations for quantum error correction and mid-circuit operations, and will require both low-level optimization skills (e.g., SIMD, GPU, FPGA) and an understanding of quantum simulation trade-offs. The role supports integration with a 25-qubit chip and involves close collaboration with physicists and engineers to push the boundaries of scalable, high-fidelity quantum simulations.

Information about the project
This project is part of QuantumStack, a 5-year project funded by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research, with the aim of developing a full software stack for programming quantum computers. The project is integrated with the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT), a 12-year, billion-SEK initiative started in 2018 with the purpose of advancing Swedish academia and industry to the forefront of quantum technology, and to build a Swedish quantum computer. Our ambitious goal at Chalmers is to build this quantum computer with 100 superconducting qubits and to apply it to real computational problems that cannot be efficiently solved on a conventional computer. Such computationally hard problems are found, e.g., in optimization, quantum chemistry, materials science, machine learning, etc.

Building a quantum computer requires a multi-disciplinary effort involving experimental and theoretical physicists, electrical and microwave engineers, computer scientists, software engineers, and researchers in materials science and nanotechnology. We are developing the superconducting quantum devices, control circuits, firmware, and methods required to make the quantum computer a reality.

The person taking this position will be working with the team at the computer science and engineering department mostly on the performance engineering and hardware-aware code optimizations to achieve scalability in terms of the simulator systems. The work will be done in close collaboration with the physics team to be able to develop optimizations also at the algorithmic level in a co-design way. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the work, we are looking for a person with a background in performance engineering and high-performance computing hardware (high-performance CPUs and GPUs) as well modeling of quantum computer systems. This can be either a holder of a PhD in computer science and/or engineering (computer architecture and HPC related topics) with knowledge in quantum computing or a PhD in physics (quantum computing related topic) with knowledge in HPC systems and performance engineering.
