PhD position summary/title:–PhD student position in Innovation systems of emerging fission and fusion technologies
Climate change mitigation, energy security concerns and cumulative technical development have led to a renewed interest in nuclear energy. However, established nuclear fission technology suffers from long construction times, high up-front costs, limited learning, and high political risk. Small modular reactors (SMRs) could potentially open a new trajectory for nuclear fission, and thermonuclear fusion could open a completely new space for innovation and industrial development. To realise such visions, not only technical problems, but also a broad set of economic and institutional barriers related to developing new industrial value chains need to be overcome. This PhD project at Chalmers, in cooperation with RISE, applies the technological innovation systems (TIS) framework to identify barriers and drivers in different parts of the emerging sociotechnical systems around SMRs and fusion reactors, with the aim of providing foresight to policymakers and industry.

PhD position summary/title:–PhD student in integrated AI/MD for the discovery of new materials
Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have long been used in various industrial applications due to their favorable chemical and thermal stability, water resistance, and electrical insulation. In particular, they are widely used in the process of semi-conductor manufacturing; however, due to recent evidence of their adverse environmental and health effects, regulatory agencies are increasingly tightening restrictions on PFAS usage and pushing for their eventual phase-out, spurring an urgent need for alternative compounds. As such, semiconductor manufacturers face the imminent need to align their manufacturing practices with these strict, new regulations. The development of new PFAS replacements which address the potential risks associated with them while maintaining their favorable chemical properties is one of the crucial problems facing humanity in the next decade.

PhD position summary/title:–PhD student in Neuro-symbolic AI for Mathematical Discovery
Generative AI, with tools like ChatGPT, driven by Large Language Models (LLMs), have in the past year demonstrated impressive capabilities in generation of not only fluent text but also computer code. They take instructions in natural language and can perform seemingly creative tasks very well. However, LLMs can be unreliable: a well-known issue is hallucinations where seemingly sensible but incorrect answers are produced, and their reasoning capabilities are fragile.
Research mathematicians are increasingly staring to use computers to assist in their research, not least in cases where proofs turn out to be so large that it is impossible to check each step manually (a amous example is Thomas Hales’ proof of Kepler’s conjecture). Proof-assistants are software designed for exactly this: keeping track of precise definitions and checking each step of the proof. However, using a proof assistant requires both expertise in how to program them, and libraries of foundational mathematics to already be in place.
We believe that LLMs has the potential to speed up this process and even provide creative suggestions to working mathematicians. But not on their own: Proof assistants have the complementary capabilities missing for this to work. The goal of this proposal is therefore to bring LLMs and proof assistants together via a neuro-symbolic architechture.

PhD position summary/title:–PhD position in Circularization of the Construction Industry
The development of buildings and infrastructures is an immensely carbon- and resource-intensive process and circular economy strategies are key to decrease the environmental impacts of the construction industry. Still, reuse rates remain dramatically low. According to practitioners, facilities to store and redistribute reclaimed construction materials – aka urban resource centers (URCs) – are too few and decentralized. As a result, the organizational, logistical, and environmental implications of upscaling URCs remain unclear.
The aim of this PhD project is to investigate the extent to which wide-scale implementation of URCs could help decrease the construction industry’s environmental impact. This project is trans-disciplinary with, at its core, the research topics of material stock modeling and construction logistics. As such, the project will integrate different research methods and tools (e.g., material stock and flow modeling, spatial analysis, stakeholders engagement, multi-criteria decision analysis, life cycle assessment). This trans-disciplinarity will also be reflected in the supervisory team.

PhD position summary/title:–PhD position in Marine Technology – Crashworthy Ship Structures
The PhD candidate will work on a research project to investigate barriers within regulations for ship design/construction and propose solutions for commercial ships if small modular reactors (SMR) are introduced. The SMRs must be located safely in the ship. The side-shell and bottom structures must, therefore, be protected against ship collision and grounding accidents. Different alternatives for crashworthy structure designs will be investigated and compared using the finite element (FE) method by simulation of ship-to-ship collision and grounding events. The results from the FE simulations will be assessed with respect to each structure’s structural integrity, focusing on energy absorption (accidental limit state) and contribution to the ship’s global strength (ultimate limit state). Optimization analysis may be performed for the most “promising” structure design. The PhD candidate will conduct the research in close collaboration with industry partners that are considering installing SMRs in commercial ships and with NTNU (Norway), which has an ongoing project on the same topic.
