The University of Technology of Tarbes, a renowned institution for engineering excellence, seeks a highly skilled researcher to join their e-ACE2 research group. This PhD position is an exceptional opportunity to contribute to the development of innovative power electronic devices and play a crucial role in shaping the future of sustainable energy.

About the Job

As a PhD researcher, you will be working on the SAFEPOWER European project, focusing on the design and development of next-generation Medium Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) converters. These cutting-edge devices are instrumental in facilitating the widespread adoption of renewable energy sources and ensuring a reliable and efficient energy distribution network.

Scientific Objectives

The primary objective of this PhD research is to investigate an unconventional approach for monitoring the aging of power electronic devices through S-parameters analysis. This innovative method employs Radio Frequency characterization to evaluate impedance changes and predict the end-of-life of these critical components. Your task will be to develop and refine this approach, addressing three key scientific challenges:

  • Define a generic failure indicator capable of monitoring multiple degradation processes.
  • Evaluate the ability of this indicator to predict the end-of-life of power electronic devices.
  • Develop online monitoring capabilities using real-time electronic circuitry.
Requirements and Qualifications

To succeed in this role, you must possess excellent English language skills, both written and verbal. Proficiency in French is also desirable. Ideally, you should be nearing completion of your Research Master's degree or have up to two years of experience after completing your master's program.
