Posted: 28 August 2026 - Turku, Finland
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Turku is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher for the SmartHiTS project, which aims to develop self-protecting high-temperature superconducting wires. The researcher will focus on finite-element and multiphysics modelling to enhance the design of superconducting conductors and coils, addressing quench behaviour and safety. The position offers collaboration with experimental researchers and opportunities for international engagement. Applicants should have a doctoral degree in a relevant field and strong expertise in FEM and multiphysics simulation. The role includes developing models, validating them against experimental data, and contributing to scientific publications.
