PhD student (f/m/d) “Fatigue and repair of insect cuticle”

**Code**: FK5-10-2023, Pay group / Entgeltgruppe 13 TV-L

Subject to the release of funds, the position will be filled with 65% of the full working hours per week (25.48 hours), limited to 36 months and starting at the earliest convenience. The position is suitable for part-time.

Project Description

Insect cuticle is one of the most common and versatile biological materials. Like any other biological structure, cuticle exoskeletons are at constant risk of being damaged by their environment. Surprisingly, in relation to its biological significance, only very little is known about the ability of cuticle exoskeletons to cope with cycling loading and in particular fatigue related stresses. To investigate these open questions, we will use a cross-disciplinary scientific approach, combining biology, materials sciences, and mechanical engineering. The outcome of our study will help us to understand how insect exoskeletons react to cyclic loading and allow us to gain first insight and explore fundamental biomechanical principles of cuticle fatigue and repair.
