Description

 Chalmers University of Technology invites applications for a PhD position focused on advancing Human Body Models (HBMs) to improve the safety of occupants in automated vehicles. The research aims to enhance adaptive restraint systems by addressing challenges such as occupant variability and innovative seating postures. The position involves developing biomechanical properties of HBMs, validating them through accident reconstruction, and potentially teaching at the undergraduate level. The ideal candidate will have a Master's degree in Engineering, proficiency in numerical methods, and a strong interest in vehicle safety.
