Glasgow, Glasgow City, United Kingdom University of Strathclyde Full time

FTE: 1 FTE

Term:
Open-ended

Closing Date: 2 September 2024


The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Strathclyde, is seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Structural Engineering and Structural Health Monitoring to strengthen our Centre for Intelligent Infrastructure.

As civil infrastructure becomes increasingly sophisticated and interconnected, the demand for experts in Structural Engineering and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has never been higher.

Most of the infrastructure by 2050 will be adaptations of current structures, not new builds. The Centre for Intelligent Infrastructure recognizes that this shift demands a profound transformation in monitoring, maintenance, and refurbishment practices. SHM provides a proactive approach to infrastructure management by integrating real-time data and sensor technologies.

The envisioned role of Lecturer in Structural Engineering and SHM aligns with the objectives and expertise housed within the Centre for Intelligent Infrastructure that serves as the epicentre for transformative research in civil engineering, focusing on pioneering technologies that redefine the landscape of infrastructure development and management with strong emphasis on digital technologies for improving the environmental sustainability and climate resilience of new and existing infrastructure.

At the heart of the university's strategy is a commitment to innovation and technological advancement, supported by priority areas of Social and Environmental Sustainability and Process, Systems and Digital.

Structural health monitoring and intelligent systems represent some of the most prominent technology required to develop climate resilient infrastructures and maximise the sustainability of the built environment.


The successful candidate will hold a Ph.
D. in Civil Engineering or related fields. Their academic background will reflect a deep understanding of SHM and structural behaviour under operational and extreme loading conditions.

This expertise is not only a prerequisite for effective teaching but positions the candidate as a thought leader in a critical and evolving field.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate an active research agenda in structural health monitoring, or other relevant technologies which may encompass sensors and robotics for civil engineering, Artificial Intelligent (AI), and other emerging technologies, showcasing a track record of publications in reputable journals and conferences.

The nature of civil engineering challenges often requires interdisciplinary solutions.

The candidate should have a proven ability to collaborate with experts in related fields, including but not limited to digital twin technologies, risk and uncertainty modelling, artificial intelligence and machine learning, earthquake engineering, and material science.

Their collaborative spirit should extend beyond the department, fostering connections with researchers across the university.

The ideal candidate will possess a passion for teaching and an ability to deliver high-quality education at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

They should be prepared to contribute to core structural engineering modules, integrating practical applications such as SHM into the curriculum.

Given the international focus of our department and the emphasis on global engagement, the candidate should express a willingness and enthusiasm for teaching in our international programs.

This includes contributing to established collaborations, such as the IJEP program with Yunnan University, China, and potentially developing new modules that align with global educational needs.


Informal enquiries about the post can be directed to Prof. Edoardo Patelli ) and Dr. Enrico Tubaldi ).
