AS2M : "Estimation and control of flexible structures with physics informed learning"
PhD : Experimental and numerical study of the interphase properties of plant fibre/lignin-epoxy composites using a micromechanical approach
Description: This PhD Thesis offer is part of the RE-Fibre project (DC8). The main ambition is to develop high strength, lightweight, fully bio-based and recyclable composites using recyclable lignin-derived epoxies and polyurethanes and plant fibre reinforcements (flax and hemp). To reach the requirements for the industrial application of composites, it is necessary to better understand the interaction of epoxy resins with plant fibres and the physicochemical phenomena that take place in the interface region during plant fibre impregnation and epoxy curing
RE-Fibre is a Doctoral Network funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA-DN) that aims to revolutionize Bio-fibre composite landscape by designing high-performance, fully renewable, and recyclable wood and plant fibre materials. RE-Fibre will train 11 Doctoral Candidates (DCs) with an entrepreneurial and sustainability-mindset in the disciplines of green/lignin chemistry, new biobased materials, and environmental systems science.
The FEMTO-ST Institute “Franche-Comté Electronics Mechanics Thermal Science and Optics – Sciences and Technologies” is a joint research institution. It is the largest public research laboratory in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, located in eastern France, next to Switzerland and Germany. It comprises 7 scientific departments with approximately 750 staff members (PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, technicians, engineers, administrative staff, researchers and professors).
Starting date : June 2025
PhD: Sustainable multifunctional lignin bio-fibre composites made of plant fibres and biomass-derived, non-toxic, repairable-recyclable epoxy polymer
Description : This PhD Thesis offer is part of the RE-Fibre project (DC9). The main ambition of this project is to develop high strength, lightweight, fully bio-based and recyclable composites with water- and fire-resistance using recyclable lignin-derived epoxies and polyurethanes and plant fibre reinforcements (flax and hemp).
