The GreeNexUS project proposes a novel and multidisciplinary approach to promote urban greening, territorial regeneration and safety/accessibility/walkability of urban infrastructures, as key strategies to face those challenges, while addressing climate change and preventing pandemics from exacerbating inequalities in disadvantaged/vulnerable groups.
In this context, the Department of Civil, Chemical, Environmental and Materials Engineering offers 2 PhD positions in the following fields:
Doctoral Candidate #9: Impact Absorbing Pavements with Improved Accessibility Features (IAP)
The main objective of the project is to develop Impact Absorbing Pavements for footpaths and bike-lanes improving the state-of-the-art surface materials that make use of waste tire rubber and other recycled materials from pavements.
