Open Fully-funded Ph.D. Position on Reuse of prestressed concrete infrastructure
University of Luxembourg
Prof. Numa Bertola
The Sustainable Concrete Structure Laboratory is looking for a new Ph.D. candidate. In this
fully-funded position, the Ph.D. candidate will work on using developing frameworks for
assessing the reuse potential of prestressed concrete structures.
As the successful candidate, you will contribute to a research project at the intersection of
engineering (concrete structures), material science (durability, mechanical behavior), data
science, and life-cycle analyses.
The aim of this Ph.D. project is to develop the first assessment method for evaluating reusing
potential of concrete infrastructures. The tasks comprise the development of a laboratory
campaign of full-scale reused prestressed concrete elements, the development of non-
