About the Job

Requirements

  • Be a final-year student at a general or specialized engineering school, or study geology or geotechnical engineering.
  • Advanced knowledge of soil mechanics, earthquake engineering, soil dynamics, and finite-element modeling is valued in evaluating the application.

Responsibilities

  • Review analytical methods for calculating soil pressure and resistance in the technical literature.
  • Perform an analytical stability calculation for a retaining wall in layered soil with significant stiffness contrasts and seismic signal amplification, using identified calculation methods and selecting a horizontal seismic coefficient compatible with site conditions.
  • Perform a dynamic finite-element calculation using Z-SOIL, with the same retaining-wall, soil, and groundwater assumptions.
  • Compare the results of the analytical and finite-element approaches and assess the accuracy and safety provided by analytical methods.
  • Depending on research progress, conduct a sensitivity study to evaluate how soil stiffness and wall geometry affect the accuracy of dynamic soil pressure and resistance calculation methods.
  • Write an internship report, present the work to the team, and prepare a scientific article.
