About the position 

Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering has a vacancy for a Postdoctoral position within the field of thermomechanical metal forming and aluminium extrusion of aluminium based on increasing post-consumer scrap contents.

The postdoctoral fellowship position is a temporary position where the main goal is to qualify for work in senior academic positions.

We are looking for someone to be part of a research group investigating how increasing post-consumer scrap contents in aluminium affect manufacturing processes, mechanical properties of the material and end-product as well as lifecycle performance.

You will be part of the recent research project, AluGreen, owned by Norsk Hydro ASA and funded by the Norwegian Research Council and a consortium of 16 industry partners. Moreover, this project is aligned to long-term research programs such as SFI PhysMet and NAPIC (NTNU Aluminium Product Innovation Centre).

Your immediate leader is Professor.
