Postdoctoral Researcher in Machine Elements
Job Responsibilities We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher who wants to contribute to the next generation of energy-efficient and sustainable transport systems through world-class research in tribology and machine elements. Friction losses in vehicle systems still account for a significant portion of global energy consumption. In heavy vehicles alone, approximately 180 billion liters of fuel are consumed annually due to friction, while the transport sector faces significantly stricter climate requirements. The EU's target of 90% reduced CO₂ emissions from new heavy vehicles by 2040 sets entirely new demands for energy efficiency and innovative technical solutions. This project focuses on an often overlooked but highly promising component: grease-lubricated wheel bearing systems. The project aims to develop and implement a systematic and realistic method for evaluating new grease formulations, using a specially designed test rig that will be designed and built specifically for this purpose. The project is conducted in close collaboration with leading actors throughout the entire value chain, including Traton/Scania, Europe's leading grease producer Axel Christiernsson, and KTH. The successful candidate will have a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of academic research and industrial application, with direct potential to contribute to future sustainable transport solutions. This position is part of KTH's PROCEED initiative for research activities in Södertälje, which provides a unique opportunity for research collaboration with Traton/Scania and AstraZeneca. To enable close collaboration and cooperation, regular physical presence in Södertälje is an important part of the position. The position offers excellent opportunities to build a strong international network, develop your own research, and contribute to industry's green transition. Qualifications Requirements Completed doctoral degree or foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a doctoral degree. This eligibility requirement must be fulfilled by the time the employment decision is made Scientific competence Documented knowledge and experience in machine elements and/or tribology Merits At the application deadline, no more than three years since the doctoral degree or a foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a doctoral degree was completed Awareness of diversity and equal treatment issues with particular focus on gender equality Collaboration skills Independence We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.
