Subject description
The position is linked to two EU projects. The first is from Research and In-novation Action and is about implementing the zero vision in Africa. The zero vision is the Swedish Transport Administration's vision that in the long term there should be zero deaths and serious injuries in traffic by road safety permeating all measures in road traffic. The goal is to transfer the successful road safety measures in Europe to Africa and lead to fewer deaths and injuries there as well.
The second is a European Research Council project and focuses on evaluating interactions between self-driving vehicles and ordinary road users from a road safety perspective. The main focus is on an evaluation of road users' behavior as they interact with current or future mobility scenarios using both qualitative and quantitative analysis.
Creating simulation scenarios and using these will be part of the research tasks.

Subject description
Clay is an environmentally friendly, sustainable, and very old material. The purpose of this project is to study clay in solution and how its state diagram is affected by additions of different kinds of salts and the variation of the physicochemical properties of the solution. The focus will be on swelling, adsorption, desorption, and inter- and intramolecular interactions. We anticipate that our results will be of great interest to society, agriculture, and industry. To this end, we will combine experiments such as SAXS, NMR and osmotic stress with atomistic and coarse-grained molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. At least 50% of the time is estimated to be spent on computer simulations. The project is suitable for a postdoc with experience of independent work and project management, who can work with several tasks in parallel. If it is promising and funding is available, the project can be extended to three years.
This recruitment is connected to the Wallenberg Initiative Materials Science for Sustainability (WISE, wise-materials.org). WISE, funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, is the largest-ever investment in materials science in Sweden and will encompass major efforts at Sweden’s foremost universities over the course of 10 years. The vision is a sustainable future through materials science.
