PhD - A Generator of Optimized Winding Schemes in Electrical Machines

At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: We grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Welcome to Bosch.

The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application!

Responsibilities

You will develop a novel mathematical approach for the comprehensive modeling of pin winding systems (hairpin windings), thereby laying the foundation for innovative electric machine designs.; Furthermore, you research and formulate robust mathematical representations of highly complex real-world boundary conditions and constraints, including symmetry requirements, operating conditions, as well as manufacturing and production restrictions.; Your tasks include precisely analyzing and critically evaluating the computational complexity, feasibility, and runtime performance of your proposed discrete optimization algorithms.; Last but not least, you integrate your mathematical models into existing simulation tools to systematically evaluate and optimize winding schemes based on defined key performance indicators (KPIs).

Requirements

Education: excellent university degree (Master's or equivalent) in Applied Mathematics, Industrial/Technomathematics, Computational Engineering, Computational Engineering Science, or a comparable; Experience and Knowledge: experience in the field of optimization, particularly in discrete optimization, experience with electromagnetic field simulation and applying mathematical concepts to real-world problems, ideally with exposure to electric machines, hands-on knowledge of object-oriented programming principles, solid programming skills in MATLAB and Python, experience with software development tools such as version control (e.g., Git) and Visual Studio; Personality and Working Practice: you are skilled at analytically tackling complex problems and developing innovative solutions, you are open-minded toward new ideas and forward-thinking, you communicate clearly and collaborate constructively in a team, moreover, you proactively take on challenges and find ways to overcome obstacles; Languages: fluent in English (written and spoken), German language skills or the willingness to learn
