The Division of Material and Structural Mechanics at KTH is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to develop advanced neutron imaging methods and apply them to problems in experimental solid mechanics and materials science. The position focuses on wavelength-resolved (time-of-flight) neutron imaging, enabling quantitative analysis of phase composition, strain, and microstructural evolution in engineering materials under load. The research will combine in-situ mechanical testing with neutron imaging at large-scale facilities such as the European Spallation Source (ESS) and international beamlines, with particular emphasis on hydrogen embrittlement and phase transformations in metallic materials. The work involves both experimental design and execution, as well as development of robust data analysis workflows for extracting physically meaningful information from complex imaging datasets.
The position is part of a larger research initiative involving three coordinated research pillars, senior researchers/faculty and two additional postdoctoral researchers, combining experimental neutron imaging, tomography, simulation, and data analysis. The project is closely associated with ESS (ODIN beamline) and offers opportunities for collaboration with researchers at KTH, ESS, and other international neutron facilities and research groups. The postdoc will contribute both to core research topics and to collaborative demonstrator studies applying neutron imaging to mechanics and materials problems. The position will provide a broad experimental experience and strong opportunities for scientific publications and international networking.
