Missions

The postdoctoral researcher will investigate the relationship between the formulation of extruded raw earth bricks and the mechanical characteristics of the brick/mortar interface.
They will be responsible for:
- A small-scale hydro-mechanical characterization experimental campaign (X-ray tomography)
- A structural-scale experimental campaign (walls)

Activités

- formulation of raw earth materials for extrusion
- physical characterisation of geomaterials
- Experiments under X-ray tomography and image analysis (full fields measurements and microstructure characterisation)
- mechanical characterisation testing

Compétences

- X-ray tomography analysis
- Knowledge of the hydro-mechanical behavior of raw earth
- Mechanical characterization of materials and structures
- Physical characterization of materials
- Material formulation
- Autonomy

Contexte de travail

The mission will take place at the 3SR laboratory for mechanical and physical characterization and imaging. Formulation and extrusion will be carried out at LGP2. Finally, occasional interventions will be necessary at FCBA in Grenoble and CTP.

Le poste se situe dans un secteur relevant de la protection du potentiel scientifique et technique (PPST), et nécessite donc, conformément à la réglementation, que votre arrivée soit autorisée par l'autorité compétente du MESR.

Informations complémentaires

The effective date of the one-year contract is flexible between February and June.
