PhD Scholarship in Model Predictive Control, Norway
Beasiswa S3 dari Norwegia. Norway: PhD Scholarship in Model Predictive Control for Managed Pressure Drilling, The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). The Department of Engineering Cybernetics at The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in cooperation with the Center for Integrated Operations in the Petroleum Industry, invites applications for a PhD scholarship in Model Predictive Control for Managed Pressure Drilling.
Maintaining the correct bottom hole pressure during drilling is important both for the safety of the drilling operation and for the production characteristics of the well. The control problem is complicated by the long distance from the well bottom to the control actuator on the surface (possibly more than 10 km), in addition to the lack of on-line measurements from the well bottom. The proposed PhD will investigate the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) for this problem. The control should be able to handle both normal drilling and operation in the face of disturbances, such as gas production from the reservoir.
The PhD scholarship is for four years. A minimum of one year has to be spent at NTNU, but for the remaining period the place of work can be either at NTNU in Trondheim or at SINTEF Petroleum Research in Bergen.
Applicants should hold a Masters degree in a relevant subject, e.g., Engineering Cybernetics/Control Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Applied Mathematics or Physics.
The objective of the grant is to obtain a PhD degree, hence the successful applicant must be enrolled as a PhD candidate at NTNU. See also information about PhD education at NTNU www.ime.ntnu.no/forskning/phd/
For more information, please contact:
Professor Morten Hovd, email: Morten.Hovd@itk.ntnu.no.
The position is placed in salary code 1017, pay scale level 43 which currently corresponds to a monthly gross income of NOK 27.133,40. 2% of the gross income will be deducted for mandatory membership in the National Pension Fund.
Appointments are made in accordance with current regulations with supplementary rules for research fellowship appointment in universities and polytechnics. Applicants must agree to participate in organized doctoral study programs within the period of the appointment. The successful applicant must agree to the conditions laid down for public employees.
Candidates will be required to enroll in a PhD program within the period of employment, and must sign a contract regulating the period of employment and the mandatory work.
According to Norwegian policies, the government workforce should, as closely as possible reflect the diversity of the population at large. It is therefore a goal of NTNU, as a government institution, to have a workforce which is balanced with respect to age and gender, and to recruit persons of immigrant background. Persons of immigrant background are encouraged to apply. NTNU also wishes to increase the number of women on its workforce, and women are specifically encouraged to apply.
The application must include information about education, exams and earlier experience. Certified copies of certificates and diplomas must be enclosed. Relevant scientific works should be submitted in triplicate. Joint works will be taken into account. In cases where it is difficult to determine the applicant’s contribution, a short note of explanation should be supplied.
Applications should be sent to: Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering, Sem Sælands road 5, NO-7491 Trondheim.
Applications should be marked: IME-041/2007.

PhD Grants Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology
The Research Group focuses on law, authority and social behaviour in plural legal settings under conditions of increasing globalisation.
The project deals with local adoptions of international right discourses. It will study the global circulation of legal knowledge and norms of governance by looking how law is used by individuals and groups in conflicts with states. The projects wants to identify the social and political conditions that make people chose recourse to law in their conflicts with the state and how legal recourse relates to other modes of articulating demands. Moreover, it wants to assess the effect of recourse to law in terms of changes in norms and expectations and in modes of the social organisation of demands. Thereby it attempts to trace the changes in what is expected of state rule, the shifting norms of rights and justice, and the changes in practices of claiming rights caused by the interplay of local efforts and international pressures in the institutionalization of norms of governance.
The focus is on states with majority Muslim populations, e.g. Turkey, Egypt, Iran, Indonesia, but also others depending on the applicant’s preferences.
Please consult the website
http://www.eth.mpg.de for more information on the project.
The PhD Grants are generally awarded for 2 years, with the possibility of two six-month extensions. We expect our PhD students to complete a year-long period of fieldwork as part of their studies. The Max Planck Society is committed to raising the proportion of women in under-represented fields; we thus explicitly encourage applications by women. Individuals with disabilities will be given priority, assum-ing equal qualifications.
