Preamble

Ce sujet s'inscrit dans  le dispositif PhD tracks du centre Inria de l'Université de Lorraine et antenne de Strasbourg. Ce dispositif vise à attirer et accompagner des  éléments  prometteurs et motivés, inscrits actuellement en Master 2, vers le doctorat en proposant un financement couplé de quatre ans couvrant stage de Master2 + thèse . Le stage de Master 2, d'une durée de 5 à 6 mois, sera gratifié à 4.35 €/heure (plus ou moins 670 €/mois). Les candidats admis dans le dispositif présenteront en mai 2025 l’avancement de leurs travaux devant un jury qui validera l'entrée en thèse (l’arrêt du PhD track devrait être exceptionnel).

Ce dispositif, le mode de candidature et le calendrier sont décrits dans l'onglet PhD track du site https://www.inria.fr/fr/centre-inria-universite-lorraine

This subject is part of the PhD tracks programme run by the Inria centre at the University of Lorraine and the Strasbourg site. The aim of this programme is to attract and support promising and motivated students currently enrolled in a Master 2 course towards a PhD by offering four years of combined funding covering a Master 2 internship + thesis. The Master 2 internship, lasting 5 to 6 months, will be paid at €4.35 /hour (plus or minus €670 per month). Candidates admitted to the programme will present the progress of their work to a jury in May 2025, which will validate their entry into the PhD programme (the PhD track should be discontinued in exceptional cases).
The programme, how to apply and the timetable are described in the PhD track section of the https://www.inria.fr/fr/centre-inria-universite-lorraine website.

 

Overview

This program allows you to receive funding for your internship and thesis.
If your application is selected, the internship will be remunerated and followed by a PhD offer.
The advantage is that succesful applicants are assured very early in the year (mid-January) that they will receive a thesis grant.
The program, application procedure, and timetable are described in the PhD track section of the https://www.inria.fr/fr/centre-inria-universite-lorraine website.

Future doctoral students will be welcomed into an internship (M2 level or equivalent) and thesis program (the so-called PhD track).
The final decision on thesis funding will be made as early as January 2025 so students can be sure of receiving their thesis grant in mid-January. Internships are compensated in the same way as regular internships.

Important Dates:
* Application Deadline: December 1, 2024
* Selection Decision: Mid-January 2025
* Internship Start Date: First Semester 2025
* PhD Start Date: Second Semester 2025

Mission confiée

 

Description

Imagine a universe where porous structures—governed by mathematical functions—constantly evolve, maintaining the same core properties while adapting to new conditions.
This PhD track delves into this evolving realm, using advanced computational techniques to define and optimize these structures for various applications.

    

 

 

Principales activités

 

Overview of Research Objectives

* Internship (5-6 months)

Begin by focusing on 2D porous structures, developing and studying a method that enables their continuous evolution while preserving fundamental properties. The primary objective is understanding the parameters that ensure structural integrity during deformation.

* PhD (3 years)

Expand on the findings from the internship, moving from 2D to 3D porous structures. The PhD will optimize these structures for various mathematical, physical, and visual objectives. Potential applications include enhancing permeability, improving rigidity, and mimicking natural forms. 

This program is ideal for students interested in pushing the boundaries of computational design of porous structures.
The PhD track allows you to:

* Work on groundbreaking research in a field with applications in engineering, material science, and computer graphics.
* Secure early funding for both your internship and PhD.
