Wien, Österreich Emprego AT Vollzeit

The Department of Music Acoustics - Wiener Klangstil (IWK) at the mdw - University of Music and performing Arts Vienna seeks a PhD student to work on the project "The bowed string. Experimental and numerical investigations of playing techniques in bowed-string instruments", funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF. The main goal of the project is to analyse the playing technique in bowed-string instruments by means of experiments with artificial and human players and computer simulations. We aim at investigating the player control over the bowed-string instrument in terms of the interactions taking place at the excitation mechanism. The analysis will take place by monitoring the actions of musicians (using motion-capture technology), measuring relevant physical variables, instructing a robotic arm to excite an instrument using a bow and formulating a physical model to simulate the bow-string interaction. **Salary**: According to the Austrian collective labour agreement, the monthly gross pay is at a minimum € 2.293,95 (14 times), in case of job-related former experience a gross pay of € 2.719,40 (at a maximum) is possible. Selection process Applicants should send: - a letter of motivation - a CV (also naming a couple of potential referees) The University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna is committed to the equal treatment of all qualified applicants regardless of sex, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, world-view, age, or disability. The University is particularly interested in increasing the percentage of women working in the artistic, scientific and general university personnel ranks. It therefore expressly encourages qualified women to apply. The mdw places great importance on contributing to the control of the Covid 19 pandemic. Therefore, please note that admission is only possible with proof according to the Covid-19 Vaccination Requirement Act. The proof must be provided at the latest at the start of the employment relationship. It should be specifically mentioned, however, that applicants who are invited to the audition will not receive remuneration from the university for incurred travel and hotel expenses. Offer Requirements Skills/Qualifications Applicants should have: - a Master's degree in a field allowing them to carry out research in Music Acoustics (such as engineering, mathematics, physics, computer science, musicology); - basic knowledge in acoustics and/or audio signal processing; - some programming skills (e.g. Matlab, C++, Python or Labview); - ideally some experience in experimental acoustics / measurement technologies; - familiarity with numerical methods (such as finite differences, finite elements, system identification) is an advantage.
