Doctoral Researcher in Structure-Borne Sound Acoustics (FEM and Experimentation) | Promotion - Körperschall-Akustik (FEM und Experiment) (w/m/div.)

Job Summary

This Doctoral Researcher role at Bosch Rexroth focuses on cutting-edge research in structure-borne sound acoustics, combining advanced Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation with experimental verification. Day-to-day tasks involve developing and validating automated contact routines within FEM, conducting experimental verification of simulation results, and pioneering a methodology for determining Blocked-Forces from FEM data. A core responsibility is establishing the Blocked-Force as a key performance indicator (KPI) for the acoustic assessment of motor-pump groups, comparing it against established sound power calculation procedures. The successful candidate will disseminate research findings through publications in specialized journals and presentations at conferences. Key qualifications include a completed Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Computational Engineering, or Physics, combined with profound knowledge of FEM, numerical simulation, and programming expertise in languages like Python or Matlab. This position offers a dynamic career path in an international environment, allowing the researcher to drive industry standards and contribute to making the planet a better place.
