Master Thesis - Modeling, parameter estimation and model validation of a structure model for porous transport layers

 The focus of this master thesis is the parametrization of a stochastic structure model of a porous transport layer of electrolysers. For validation three dimensional micro-structures of real material are available. Basic models of the micro-structure are available, also tools for transport simulation running on parallel computer clusters. The validation of the basic models shall be supported by phenomenological relationships from literature. Your tasks in detail:

  • Literature review on characterization of porous material
  • Generation of micro-structures, performing transport simulations, and analysis of the results
  • Identification of relationships between micro-structure and macroscopic characteristics

Your Profile:

  • Current master studies with excellent marks in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or comparable subject
  • Excellent knowledge in the field modeling and mathematical optimization
  • Good knowledge of and some experience in a programming language, preferably C++ or Python
  • Fluency in spoken and written English
  • Fluency in German is advantageous
  • Independent, self-motivated and responsible
  • Excellent cooperation, communication and teamwork abilities
