About Flanders Make
Towards a digitally transformed, sustainable and competitive industry
Flanders Make is a fast-growing research centre that performs research to support companies from various sectors in their sustainable innovation processes. From our establishments in Lommel, Leuven, Kortrijk and Sint-Truiden and labs within the 5 Flemish universities, we stimulate open innovation through excellent research.
Because of our unique position as a bridge between industry and research, our teams combine application and system proficiency with technological and scientific knowledge. Academic partners and more than 150 companies are part of the innovative circular ecosystem of Flanders Make.
Our strategy based on industrial needs and long-term trends ensures a close link with the industry and its challenges. With our programmed research, we create impact in companies.
Sustainability, climate and workability have a high priority in our research. We want to help companies in developing sustainable, green, smart and connected products and production systems, with a special focus on people and their interaction with machines.
As a vehicle dynamics control expert , you execute research projects in advanced vehicle dynamics control and systems engineering for on the intelligent and autonomous vehicle technology
Function
You participate in research projects of intelligent and autonomous vehicle technology within the domains ‘Intelligent Driver & Traffic Systems’ and ‘Clean and Energy Efficient Vehicle’.
You will
· convert project-(s) ideas/concepts into system requirements, system specifications and derive system architectures as well as provide the necessary support for the verification and the validation phases of the development process;
· play a key role in the definition and identification of various “vehicle, driver and environment” models needed for the control of a (semi)-autonomous vehicle;
· use the developed algorithms “and/or models” for analyzing the vehicle’s behaviour while interacting with its surroundings to design intelligent, adaptive, robust and fail safe controllers to efficiently and safely manoeuvre the vehicle in all possible operating conditions;
· validate the developed vehicle models and controllers in real-life test conditions;
· disseminate of the results in journals, conferences and seminars;
· build relationships with the key role players on an international level;
· contribute to project proposals within the strategy of Flanders Make and in the European Strategy (e.g. H2020).
· You will work in Lommel and report to the site manager of Lommel
You have
· Master's degree or PhD in Engineering (Automotive, Mechatronics, Control systems, signal processing, system engineering, ... ) with background and experience in vehicle dynamics and control and preferably combined with some system engineering experience and/or any relevant on the job experience;
· A track record in research or relevant working experience in automotive industry is a plus;
· Deep knowledge in vehicle dynamics control;
· Experience in vehicle system modelling and simulation (SIL, HIL) and affinity with V-model conceptual design “in system engineering”
· Experience with Matlab and Simulink, and possibly dSpace; knowledge of AUTOSAR is a plus
· Project proposals writing skills is a plus.
You are
· passionated by research and new technologies;
· result driven and pro-active;
· a team player, a good communicator who can build sustainable relationships.
Offer
· Flanders Make gives you the opportunity to develop pre-competitive research within the next-generation vehicle technologies, together with Flemish and European companies, universities and research institutes;
