    PhD Position Experimental Validation of Wind Farm Flow Control

    Delft University of Technology

    Delft, NetherlandsDeadline 31 Oct 2026

    The rapid development of large offshore wind farms is essential for the transition towards a sustainable energy system. However, as wind turbines are installed increasingly close together, they interact through turbulent wind wakes. These wakes reduce the energy production of downstream turbines and can increase structural loading, creating a major challenge for the efficient and reliable operation of large wind farms.

    PhD position in “Water Footprint Assessment and Water Credit Design in Egypt’s Horticulture Sector”

    University of Twente

    Enschede, NetherlandsDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    Egypt’s horticulture sector operates under growing pressure from limited water availability, salinity, and rising competition over finite water resources. At the same time, the sector is economically important for food security, rural livelihoods, and export earnings, which means that improving water productivity is not only an environmental protection measure but also a strategic development and trade challenge.

    PhD in Control Theory for Learned Operators in Dynamical Systems

    Eindhoven University of Technology

    Eindhoven, NetherlandsDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    Are you fascinated by the intersection of control theory and scientific machine learning? Join us in developing the mathematical foundations needed to make deep operators reliable, robust, and applicable for control of complex engineering systems. In this PhD project, you will investigate how operator-learning models can represent dynamical systems, how their stability and robustness can be characterized, and how controllers can be designed for them. Your work will combine rigorous theory, numerical methods, and applications in high-tech, medical, and energy systems.
