Manveer Munde, Principal Consultant, reflects on his time working in hands-on materials testing in our latest blog. Looking at the powerful synergy between hands-on experimentation and computational modelling — where physical testing informs digital simulation, and high-performance computing pushes the boundaries of both.

Where did your career in HPC start?

Welded joints in gas transport pipelines must always be meticulously evaluated with respect to structural integrity, particularly in the presence of pressurized hydrogen gas. This is the primary focus of the HyLINE II project, where we address various aspects of hydrogen and material interactions both experimentally and numerically. These include hydrogen diffusion and trapping, the influence of microstructural features on crack initiation and growth, fracture and fatigue properties, and the transferability between lab-scale and industrial applications. The meeting commenced with a visit to SINTEF's new national SMART-H test lab for mechanical testing under pressurized hydrogen gas, where we are currently performing fracture toughness testing. The project are very grateful to our Japanese research partner from Kyushu University, represented by Professor Hisao Matsunaga, and the collaborating Fukuoka University represented by Professor Junichiro Yamabe, for visiting Trondheim and presenting their recent research findings.

I am shamefully copying this post from Linkedin but if you happen to know any candidate, do not hesitate to reach:

It's on. To my #ComputationalChemistry network, I am calling on you. 🙇

The PM2E team in the CIMAP laboratory (www.cimap.ensicaen.fr) is looking for a #PhD hashtag#candidate. The goal of the project is to understand key parameters in #semiconductor defects stability and physics (both vacancies and color centers, see for example: doi.org/10.1016/j.nimb.2022.12) through the use of
#DFT and #MolecularModeling. The end goals of the project is concerned with application for #QuantumComputing through the making of stable #qubit. Collaboration and communication with experimentalists will be part of the project.

If you're interested in #MolecularDynamics, #MonteCarlo simulations, or DFT and quantum calculations, we are waiting for you. We are using codes such as #Lammps and #QuantumEspresso. We are looking for a candidate finishing or already having a master degree (or equivalent diploma) with training in #physics/ #MaterialsScience / #TheoreticalChemistry. Any experience in programming using #Python, #C and the #Linux environment would be considered a plus.

The position is located in Alençon (Orne) between Caen and Le Mans. Founding is assured for relevant candidates.
