PhD: Digital Twin based verification and optimization of large 2-stroke ship engine parameter sets and live data

Company:

MAN Energy Solutions

Job description

Are you passionate about cutting-edge technologies and their application in the green transition of maritime transport? Do you want to contribute to the development of innovative engine solutions that are pivotal in decarbonizing the industry? If so, we invite you to join MAN Energy Solutions as a 3-year Industrial PhD candidate.The PhD ProjectThis PhD position offers you the opportunity to work on an exciting project that integrates advanced simulation tools with digital twin (DT) technology to optimize and verify large 2-stroke engine parameter sets and push the boundaries of digital twin technology for maritime engines.The aim of this PhD project is to develop and optimize a digital twin to enhance the performance of both the engines in production and operation.

• Stage 1 – Engine Digital Twin for Production Quality: Enable the current engine simulation platform to develop a digital twin capable of testing parameter consistency in engine production. The outcome is a tool that validates the performance of generated engine parameter sets using our own-developed simulation platform MultiSim.
• Stage 2 – Engine Digital Twin for Operational Support: Further development to simulate real-world operational conditions of operational engines and develop methods to troubleshoot and refine engine parameters remotely

You will play an important role in:

• Develop Digital Twin Solutions: You will develop and optimize a DT-based verification tool for 2-stroke dual-fuel engines, ensuring consistency and quality in production and performance during real-world operations.
• Collaborate with Experts: Work closely with highly skilled engineers in and academic experts in digital twin technology and simulation from SDU.
• Technical Implementation: Use Python and C/C++ to implement simulation frameworks and tools that allow parameter scaling and scenario descriptions.
• Dissemination of Results: Present your research at international conferences and publish in peer-reviewed journals. You will also complete and defend a PhD thesis.

We imagine that you:We imagine our new PhD candidate:

• Holds a Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with strong academic credentials.
• Has experience with simulation tools.
• Has experience with control systems, including theoretical background knowledge.
• Is proficient in Python and C/C++ programming.
• Is highly motivated, self-driven, and enjoys working in a collaborative, team-oriented environment.
• Has excellent communication skills in English.
• It is an advantage if you have experience with:

• Data analysis and visualization tools.
• Working with agile development frameworks (SCRUM, Kanban).

Welcome to the Tools & HILS departmentWe are a team with good unity, where the daily life is characterized by an informal atmosphere and a pleasant social work environment.
