Postdoc position on Energy Flexibility Services for Sustainable Data Centers
University of Twente, Enschede
The Computer Architecture for Embedded Systems CAES and Design and Analysis of Communication Systems DACS groups of the University of Twente have vacancies for two PhD (fully-funded, 4 years) and one postdoc (3 years) related to the use of energy flexibility of data centers. According to a recent report by the European Union), data centers in the EU accounted for an estimated 1.8–2.6% of total EU electricity use in 2022 while in the Netherlands this fraction is around 5%. These data centers are essential in the operation of digital services, and by that there is a growing need for improving their sustainability. Unfortunately, the energy systems of new data centers, industry and renewable energy generation cannot always be integrated due to a lack of grid capacity within the Netherlands. Furthermore, as the current growth of data centers increases this capacity problem further, this research project will work on mitigating this problem and develop solutions that allow datacenters to be better integrated in the electricity systems to make a positive contribution to addressing capacity issues and efficient use of renewable energy by shifting their demands in time and space using efficient orchestration algorithms. Project Description: The research is part of the MISD project and the candidates will become a part of a multidisciplinary team on energy management that consists of researchers from several research groups. The aim is to develop and integrate methods that support the integration of data centers in the energy grid by unlocking and using the flexibility in the operation of data centers to mitigate grid congestion and shift peak demands in space and time, e.g., to times of availability of renewable energy. The focus of this Post-doc position is as follows: the researcher (with a PhD researcher in the project) develops a methodology that allows task scheduling capabilities of the data center to be used for creating energy flexibility. The researchers will develop analytical models, simulation models, interfaces, and adapt and integrate continuum orchestration algorithms (e.g., smartly using edge computing resources and telco-edges) developed within the project. The researcher will directly work with dr. Suzan Bayhan and dr.ir. Marco Gerards.

Post-doc on Meaning and decision making of managers in Smart Industry; NWO-funded project ‘Smart skills @ Scale’
University of Twente, Enschede
The Dutch industry needs a skilled workforce to keep up with and contribute to digital and green transitions. Currently, implementing new technology is often seen as complex, as this also affects the production processes and way of working. This might result in managers either jumping to solutions (without fully understanding the implications) or postponing or refraining from engaging in the development of their business. Managers and entrepreneurs therefore need to become action-intelligent and co-design with their production workers production systems for worker-technology symbiosis. To support managers in their decision making around Smart Industry, we need to gain insight into how managers make meaning of the Industry 5.0 transition, what subsequent decisions are made and how these processes can be optimised. This allows managers to create and implement more successful strategies for their own organisation’s development alongside core values such as human-centricity, sustainability, and resilience and, in this way, provide the foundation for developing Smart production systems As a Post-doc researcher in this project, your job is to Design and conduct longitudinal qualitative case studies to better understand how managers make meaning of the Industry 5.0 transition, and how this influences their decision making.Design and conduct interventions to support managers’ meaning- and decision-making processes to facilitate more successful organizational change.Work independently on your own research, while remaining in close relation with other researchers in the project team as well as with stakeholders and professionals of the involved learning communities.Report and present your findings for both scientific and non-scientific audiences (e.g., at scientific conferences, in journal publications, or during workshops with practitioners). The post-doc position is funded by NWO and is part of the project Smart Skills@Scale. The Dutch industry needs a skilled workforce to keep up with and contribute to digital and green transitions. However, finding qualified employees is challenging, and skills quickly become outdated due to fast-developing technologies (AI, VR, robots). Currently, most Smart Industry companies lack human capital and knowledge to achieve their maximum potential. Smart Skills@Scale connects 5 universities, 3 universities of applied sciences, eleven Smart Industry communities, 450 SMEs, and several social partners and educational partners in an eight-year program to realize a major breakthrough aimed towards creating a sustainably employable workforce. We stimulate the development of human-centric production systems, smart workplaces, jobs and careers, and (regional) partnerships. With this integrated approach, we want to empower production employees and organizations to achieve a human-centric, resilient, and sustainable Smart Industry sector. The program started at the beginning of 2024 with a new team of three PhD-students, three post-doc researchers, four senior researchers and their supervisors. We now invite a new researchers to join our team and to work on the role of managerial meaning making and decision making.Requirements: You hold your PhD (or are close to completion) in Organization Studies, Organizational Sociology, Educational Science,(Work & Organizational) Psychology, or a related field. In addition, you: have expertise or demonstrable interest in meaning making processes, decision making and organizational change;have strong methodological knowledge (qualitative; process research);have experience with field research and longitudinal designs;have an interest in the challenges related to industry 5.0, with a focus on human capital rather than technical matters;have good social and communication skills in academic as well as non-academic contexts;are fluent in English and able to understand and communicate in Dutch (data collection will be in Dutch);have excellent writing skills;are willing and have proven ability to work independently, but also to collaborate with a team and relevant stakeholders.Salary Benefits: A 4-year post-doc position (1,0 fte), starting in between October 2024 and January 2025.The gross salary is in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU) € 3.226,- to € 5.090,- per month for a fulltime position, depending on experience.On top of this, you receive a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary and an 8.3% end-of-year bonus.We offer excellent auxiliary terms of employment, such as professional and personal development programs;a secondary remuneration package;a dynamic environment with enthusiastic colleagues;an organization focusing on internationalization;a high degree of responsibility and independence.Work Hours: 28 - 40 hours per weekAddress: Drienerlolaan 5

PhD position on Calibration in Deep Learning for Zero Downtime in Cyber-Physical Systems
University of Twente, Enschede
The vacancy is focused on calibration in deep learning. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have demonstrated significant predictive capabilities across various domains including computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing. Existing sophisticated neural network architectures are frequently integrated into practical applications. However, recent research has highlighted a crucial issue: despite their high accuracy achieved through training, deep neural networks often have overconfident and underconfident predictions. Deploying uncalibrated models in real-world systems poses substantial risks, particularly in safety-critical contexts like monitoring critical infrastructure systems. Calibrating deep learning models is essential to mitigate this risk, ensuring that the model's posterior distribution accurately represents uncertainty without being excessively overconfident.

PhD position in Micro-mechanics of dynamic friction in a single-grain contact
University of Twente, Enschede
At the Surface Technology and Tribology (STT) chair in the faculty of Engineering Technology (ET), we are currently seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to research on the topic of friction mechanisms in single-grain sliding. The challenge Under highly accelerated slip, several physical phenomena contribute to the dynamic friction behavior of mechanical systems. Understanding friction in grain (micro)-scale contacts is relevant to several industrial and geo-mechanical systems. For example, loss of friction and slip causes errors in highly accurate positioning stages in lithography. Earthquakes also occur due to sudden slip when the frictional strength of the crushed rock granules in geological faults is overcome. We plan to study the friction phenomena in a single-grain (asperity) contact by performing experiments to accurately model friction during high-acceleration sliding. Dynamic friction in single-grain (sphere-on-flat) contact in a fluid environment is affected by coupled phenomena such as frictional heating, fluid pressurization, etc. By instrumental analysis of single-grain experiments, we can formulate a physical basis for these friction processes and derive experimentally validated single-grain friction laws for highly dynamic slip. Our aim is: To design and perform sliding experiments to investigate the micro-mechanics of dynamic frictional phenomena and develop friction laws for single-grain contact. Job description The PhD candidate will plan and implement the research towards the project objectives by:participating in the design and development of a setup for highly dynamic sliding experiments.performing in-(/ex-)situ thermographic and spectroscopic studies to inspect and quantify variations in frictional forces and phenomena.developing experimentally validated, grain-scale friction models.working with an interdisciplinary team in partnering departments and universities to efficiently calibrate and implement friction models to build larger scale Multiphysics solvers. You will actively participate during the progress meetings and discussions of our research chair and project partners. We encourage our researchers to present and publish their results at international conferences and in reputed journals.Requirements: MSc (masters) degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent, preferably with a background in tribology.Experience in experimental design and techniques is an advantage!You are passionate to learn and to improve.You thrive in a collaborative environment.You are proficient in English language and interpersonal skills.Salary Benefits: A full-time 4-year PhD position.Excellent working conditions in a very exciting and creative environment within a green and lively campus.A professional and personal development program within Graduate School Twente, culminating in professional scientific development and leading to acquiring a PhD degree.You will receive a gross monthly salary ranging from € 2.770,- (first year) to € 3.539,- (fourth year).There are attractive benefits including a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary and an end-of-year bonus of 8.3%.A proven pension scheme.Minimum of 29 holiday days per year in case of full-time employment.A vibrant ecosystem with encouraging colleagues and mentorship, where internationalization with equal opportunity is an important aspect of the strategic agenda.Work Hours: 38 - 40 hours per weekAddress: Drienerlolaan 5

PhD position on automated and alternate assessment in undergraduate mathematics
University of Twente, Enschede
Thousands of students across many technical programmes are taught mathematics every year at the University of Twente, by teachers based in the Applied Mathematics Department. Assessment of mathematical proficiency is an important part of this process and requires substantial dedication of time and attention. Traditional assessment in the form of closed-book examination has its advantages. However, there exist many forms of alternate assessment, including automated approaches such as digital grading, offering different opportunities and advantages. FERMAT (Fundamental Educational Research in Mathematics at Twente) is a new research group within the Applied Mathematics department with a mission to engage in practice-led research to benefit the teaching and learning of mathematics. FERMAT has made streamlining assessment one of its core interests. We seek a PhD candidate who is passionate about mathematics education to engage in a project evaluating the affordances and constraints of different forms of automated and alternative assessment, comparing and contrasting assessment forms across mathematics courses and between courses in mathematics and other disciplines within the faculty and the UT. It is expected that the outcomes of the project will include practical implementation (or plans for implementation) of assessment reform which will have positive impact on teachers’ workloads, while maintaining, or even improving, the quality of assessment.Requirements: You hold a Masters degree in Mathematics Education or Mathematics.

PhD position in the value assessment of innovations in end-stage organ failure
University of Twente, Enschede
The four-year PhD position starts on the 2nd of September 2024 (or as soon as possible thereafter). The research project will be embedded in the Health Technology Services (HTSR) department, at the Faculty of Behavioural Management and Social Sciences of the University Twente (UT, The Netherlands). The PhD candidate will be supervised by dr. Sopany Saing (HTSR), dr. Sebastian Rachuba (Center for Healthcare Operations Improvement & Research), and prof. dr. Erik Koffijberg (HTSR). The candidate will collaborate with dr. Olivier Manintveld (Erasmus UMC, Rotterdam). Project Description Competition for limited healthcare resources is a hallmark of any healthcare system. In practice, this translates into a waiting list problem: patients need to wait for a resource to become available, e.g. solid organ transplantation waiting lists and the associated staff and bed/room space needed for the surgery and post-operative care. Compared to timely patient management, delayed interventions commonly result in loss of quality of life, or even death, and additional costs and burden to the healthcare system. This begs the question, if a technological advancement is introduced into a clinical pathway restricted by resource constraints, how would this affect the waiting time for patients to receive healthcare? In organ transplantation, examples of such advancements include warm perfusion or mechanical circulatory support. Warm perfusion or 'Heart in a Box' allows a donor organ to remain viable for longer outside of the human body. Related to waiting time, there is also a growing concern regarding the shortage of the healthcare workforce. This means that patients are competing for similar healthcare professionals. What does the technological innovation mean for the healthcare workforce? This project will explore how we can measure the true impact of new innovations on available personnel capacity. The concept of capacity constraints is important in Health Services Research but is typically not considered in Health Technology Assessment (HTA). HTA is a tool relied on by decision makers at both national governments and in some instances, at the hospital level, to determine whether or not to adopt a new technology. Healthcare delivery and the respective healthcare pathways are typically very complex and involve multiple stakeholders and different types of interventions (e.g. diagnostic, pharmaceutical, surgery, rehabilitation…). By incorporating capacity constraints in HTA we can develop a more clinically realistic model. Using simulation modelling techniques allows us to provide better support for decision-making processes at both the National and hospital level. The overarching objective of the project The project aims to investigate the health economic, but also broader impact, on healthcare resources, workforce, and the healthcare system, of innovations in the context of end-stage organ failure, using simulation modelling. This broader scope will generate insights beyond traditional HTA outcomes, thereby supporting hospitals and society in making optimal implementation and investment decisions. The model will capture the interaction and competition between the patient, donor organs, healthcare professionals, physical resources and the innovation of interest. In collaboration with cardiologists at Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam we will be exploring the impact of ‘Heart in a Box’ (warm perfusion of donor organ) in end-stage heart failure.Requirements: Please apply if you are a highly motivated, enthusiastic and curious researcher who wants to combine academic depth with practical applicability, and who dares to take on the challenge of an interdisciplinary research project! We are looking for a candidate with the following qualities, interests and background: A MSc degree in health technology assessment, health economics, health sciences, econometrics, economics, statistics, operations research, computer science, applied mathematics or a closely related quantitative discipline;strong analytical skills;good programming skills, e.g. R or Python;the ability to work both independently and collaboratively;good organizational and communication skills; andgood communication skills and an excellent command of spoken and written English.Salary Benefits: We encourage high responsibility and independence, while collaborating with colleagues, researchers, other university staff and partners.
