International Phd Scholarship Applications are invited for Postdoctoral positions in nanoscience Interdisciplinary Center, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Aarhus, focused on thermodynamic modeling of a mixture of Portland cement including the new additional cement material (SCMS). Positions are available from the Summer / Autumn 2011 for a period of one year with opportunity for renewal for another year, depending on progress in the project. This project is part of SCM - Manufacturing of highly reactive cement additives for low cement CO2 is a collaboration between FLSmidth A / S, Aalborg Portland A / S, Interdisiplinary nanoscience Center (iNANO), Aarhus University and the Department of Energy Technology, Aalborg University, partly funded by the Danish National Advanced Technology Foundation.International Phd Scholarship Vision whole project is to develop a new hydraulic active (pozzolan) materials (SCM's) based on a naturally occurring mineral that can be partly replace clinker Portland in the mix, thus contributing to the low energy consumption is realized and reduction substantially in CO2 emissions associated with cement and concrete .

http://thescholarshipprogramme.com Post doctoral project will focus on the theoretical part in predicting the pozzolanic activity of modeling a collection of SCMS and hydrate phase for a mixture of Portland cement, SCM, water, and mixing. The International Phd Scholarship main approach in this project is part of the thermodynamic model and it will be done in cooperation with project partners who have expertise in this field and with two PhD students associated with the SCM project.
