Promotion - Virtual Commissioning: Generic Multi-Fidelity Simulation Framework for High-Performance Transport Systems (f/m/div.)

Do you want to make a difference? Then we look forward to receiving your application at Bosch Rexroth AG.

• As a doctoral candidate you will design and validate a simulation-tool-independent virtual commissioning (VC) framework for testing real-time control stacks and carrier-management middleware for linear-motor transport systems without physical hardware.
• You will classify and define the required fidelity of physical simulation models, ranging from high-level material flow representations to component-level physics, for diverse commissioning scenarios.
• Furthermore, you will derive quantitative mathematical metrics and experimental validation methodologies to characterize the behavioral equivalence between real and simulated systems.
• You will publish your findings in peer-reviewed journals and present them at scientific conferences.
• The final assignment of the doctoral research topic is determined by the supervising university, which serves as the central point of contact for the doctoral program.

• Education: above-average completion of master’s/diploma studies in Systems Engineering, Mechatronics, Computer Science, Automation Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline with fluent English proficiency
• Experience and Knowledge: Solid knowledge of virtual commissioning, real-time control and PLC systems, simulation environments (e.g. MATLAB/Simulink, FMI/FMU, Visual Components, Plant Simulation), Python, C++, or C#, as well as experience with carrier-centric transport systems, engineering data exchange formats, digital engineering toolchains, and communication protocols (e.g. AutomationML, OPC UA, Asset Administration Shell)
• Languages: fluent in English and optional German
