Offer Description
Lodz University of Technology is one of the finest universities of technology in Poland. Its tradition and experience in training professionals and conducting research date back 80 years. It is an attractive partner for business. It cooperates with the largest national and international corporations. It conducts research of a European standard, develops new technologies and creates innovation in collaboration with the leading research centers all over the world. One of the pillars of Lodz University of Technology management is equal treatment of staff regardless of their gender, age, race or other demographic and social characteristics. In 2016, TUL was the first technical university in Poland to receive the HR Excellence in Research award certifying that the University adheres to the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.
Name of the Unit: Faculty of Material Technologies and Textile Design
Project Title: Sustainable design of hybrid (textile-materials) active conductive structures in
frequency-selective surface systems (FSS) with dominant incident wave absorption
coefficient or reflected beam directing capabilities of electromagnetic radiation
(PEM).
Project Description:
The aim of the project is to develop innovative, sustainable hybrid materials to be used in frequency-selective surface systems. These structures will be characterized by either a high absorption coefficient of the incident wave or the ability to steer the beam of reflected electromagnetic waves (EMW).
