Overview
PhD candidate position in Research on dynamic road transport flows and environmental pollution processes with stochastic system elements in a city street network.
Open application for a doctoral candidate in Technological Science
The doctoral candidate position is available in Transport Engineering Faculty, Department of Mobile Machinery and Railway Transport. Applicants interested in other research topics related to Transport Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Informatic Engineering are also welcome to apply.
Research topic description
Purpose: Develop a method for researching road transport flows, assessing dynamic processes of transport flows with stochastic system parameters and environmental pollution.
Tasks:
1. To perform an analysis of scientific research on the topic under consideration.
2. To develop a method for studying transport flows by evaluating road parameters and mixed transport flow.
3. To develop a methodology for assessing instantaneous environmental pollution of transport flows and to integrate it into the developed method of transport flow research.
4. Conduct experimental research on dynamic processes of transport flows, and determine the characteristics of stochastic parameters of transport flow.
5. Conduct experimental research on dynamic processes of transport flows, and determine the characteristics of stochastic parameters of transport flow.
6. To present the general conclusions of the research.
The selected candidate will work on the PhD thesis under the supervision of Prof. Habil. Dr Marijonas Bogdevičius. The successful applicant will have to attend scientific conferences, meetings and internships at the other universities.
Requirements
• Required background: Master’s of Science in Transport Engineering, Informatic Engineering and Mechanical Engineering;
• Deep knowledge: Vehicle Dynamics, Mathematics, Numerical solutions of differential equations, and Measurements of physical processes.
It is a prerequisite you can be present at and accessible to the institution daily.
