By transforming scientific knowledge into technologies, smart data and tools, LIST empowers citizens in their choices, public authorities in their decisions and businesses in their strategies. Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: https://www.list.lu/ LuxHyVal is a five-year initiative funded by Horizon Europe aiming to accelerate decarbonisation of Luxembourg's industrial sector via hydrogen. It covers the full green hydrogen value chain: production, storage, distribution, usage in industry and mobility, along with safety and certified operations. The project involves defining business models, regulation, and commercial frameworks, and ensures public acceptance and upskilling. Results and lessons will be replicated in two “Follower Valleys” (in Czechia and Ukraine), to enable broader hydrogen valleys across Europe. Within the project, LIST is responsible for designing and developing a Digital Twin that models the entire hydrogen value chain. By applying a model-based approach from the earliest stages of system design, this Digital Twin will provide you with decision-support functionalities throughout the lifecycle—from initial design to operation and eventual replication. In parallel, LIST is also actively involved in a national initiative dedicated to developing a Digital Twin platform for the energy transition, and both teams work closely together, sharing methods and technologies. How will you contribute? As part of this postdoctoral position, you will design and implement a model-based approach and framework to build a preliminary Digital Twin of the hydrogen value chain. This Digital Twin will allow you to simulate different scenarios to validate the viability of the value chain (e.g., low green energy production, high transportation costs, etc.). The framework you develop will integrate models—both static and dynamic—that cover various technical domains as well as financial, organizational, and regulatory aspects. Your research contribution at LIST will focus on developing an incremental, model-driven approach that enables you to design and qualify preliminary Digital Twins even when little or no information about the final system is available. You will integrate and coordinate multiple concerns, including technical, economic, and organizational aspects. Your work will lead to a first proof-of-concept implementation. The method you develop will ensure that your model-based prototype is executable from day one and remains consistent as it evolves. You will support project partners in clarifying their needs, formalizing their expertise into models, and testing their hypotheses about the value chain. Ultimately, your approach will provide crucial decision-making support to assess the feasibility and transferability of a Hydrogen Valley. You will contribute by providing advanced model management support through an adapted modelling framework and by developing concrete Digital Twin prototypes grounded in domain analysis and data provided by project stakeholders. You will research novel model engineering methods that consider the full lifecycle of the Digital Twin, addressing both its incremental development and the evolving value chain it represents. You will pay particular attention to decision-support functionalities, which you will help make accessible to relevant actors through dedicated graphical interfaces—such as dashboards, visual analytics, what-if scenarios, and simulation tools. By joining the team, you will become part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary group, acting as the reference expert on model engineering and model management to enable decision-making and simulation in the Digital Twin of the Hydrogen value chain. Main Responsibilities: · Select and adapt a modelling framework to represent the different concerns of the Hydrogen value chain, including the execution of models for simulation purposes. · Develop a model management approach covering the Digital Twin lifecycle, ensuring consistency amongst models., in collaboration with the project stakeholders (data scientist, domain experts) · Collaborate with software engineers to integrate the LIST Digital Twin data platform. · Enable the evolution of integrated data/models throughout the Digital Twin lifecycle. · Write technical documentation, research reports, and contribute to scientific dissemination (e.g., conferences, workshops, white papers).

The supply and demand of OFR will be assessed via a spatial analysis to identify recreational hotspots and inform forest management of them. Finally, the valuation of other ES will be performed based on benefit transfer methodologies, considering forest function/flow values obtained in other research context to put into context the value of OFR for human wellbeing.

Check our website: https://www.list.lu/ How will you contribute? Forest resilience is defined as the ability of the ecosystem to recover from perturbations that eventually lead the system to a different state. In such definition, vulnerability quantifies the degree of the forest ecosystem response to such external perturbations. Climate and human-induced disturbances may alter forest ecosystems dynamics, modifying eventually their resilience to rapidly changing conditions. Previous studies based on the temporal analysis of remote sensing indices suggest a change in the resilience of forest ecosystems, with a declining trend for temperate forests. However, it is still unclear how such changing resilience emerge from altered short-term physiological responses of tree species and modified long-term dynamics of the whole ecosystem. On the other hand, vegetation demography models are numerical tools formulating forest processes based on a classification of similarly sized individuals (i.e., cohorts) within the same class of biomes. Such an approach is suitable for capturing nonlinear size- and trait-dependent ecosystem responses to droughts and heatwaves, which in turn feedback to the distribution of species, modulating the long-term ecosystem resilience to environmental changes. In this framework, the objectives of your research activities are: O1: Explain ecosystem response to drought and heatwave events based on diversity in plant hydraulic traits and competition amongst different plant water use strategies. O2: Assess how alternative CO2 concentration trajectories will result in altered ecosystem dynamics and resilience.

Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: https://www.list.lu/ You will join the Functional Polymeric and Particulate Materials (FPPM) RDI unit. The FPPM unit addresses the synthesis, formulation and processing of polymers and (nano)particles to achieve specific properties enhancements and multi-functionality through both experimental and numerical approaches. Materials classes of interest include components (monomers, polymers, additives, (nano)particles, etc.) utilized in high-performance polymeric materials with relevance in the mobility, housing, energy and health sectors. The unit pursues funding and carries out research through industrial contracts and competitive projects sponsored at the Luxembourgish and European levels and is organised into two research groups focused on 1) the realisation of sustainable polymeric and particulate materials (SPPM) and 2) the chemistry and physics of smart / responsive polymeric and particulate materials (RPPM). The present postdoctoral researcher position is integrated into the RPPM research group and is connected to a recently approved funded project entitled “Evolved materials for multifunctional additive manufacturing printers” (EMMA). The key objectives of the EMMA project are in strong alignment with the environmental objectives of the European Union regarding climate neutrality, plastic recycling, and reducing dependency on fossil fuels. To contribute to these objectives, the EMMA project targets to convert post-consumer polyolefins into valuable raw materials for high-end applications. The project motivation is based on the current status that, while significant amounts of for example recycled polypropylene and high-density polyethylene are available, their mechanical properties and functionalities remain limited. To address this, the EMMA project will develop sustainable and functional polyolefins by optimizing the flow behavior of post-consumer polyolefins, applying chemical modifications through reactive extrusion, utilizing extrusion-based 3D printing, and assessing their environmental impact. EMMA is also part of a larger initiative led by AMSOL, a Luxembourg-based company specialized in advanced manufacturing solutions., addressing challenges in on-site manufacturing and recycling for civilian and defense applications. The broader project focuses on developing a transportable printer, enabling on-demand production and repair using recycled plastics and high-performance materials.
