Univeristy of Gent (Belgium)
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to conduct research on the topic: “Behaviour of Concrete Structures as Lining for a Geological Disposal Facility of Radioactive Waste.”
This project combines fundamental studies on the theoretical and numerical time-dependent behaviour of concrete, including multiphysics analysis, with limited laboratory experiments. The ultimate objective is to assess the performance of a real structure.
The PhD is jointly funded by SCK CEN (Belgian Nuclear Research Centre) and ONDRAF/NIRAS (Belgian National Agency for Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Material), in collaboration with the Department of Structural Engineering and Building Materials (Magnel-Vandepitte Laboratory), Ghent University.
