PhD Researcher in Digital Twin of Protein Extrusion for Plant-Based Meat Innovation

2 weeks ago


Clayton South, Victoria, Australia Monash University Full time

Project Overview

The Monash University and CSIRO collaboration is seeking a PhD researcher to develop a digital twin of the twin-screw extrusion process for plant-based meat innovation. This project aims to create a computational model that simulates the extrusion process, enabling the optimisation of conditions and enhancement of product quality attributes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Investigate the influence of ingredient physico-chemical properties, extrusion operating parameters, and screw configurations on the rheological behaviour of food material throughout extrusion.
  • Develop computational models for concentrated plant protein extrusion and conduct experimental studies at laboratory and pilot-scale for model validation.
  • Collaborate with researchers from different disciplines, including food engineering, nutrition science, and social science of sensory experience.

Requirements

  • Background in Mechanical/Chemical/Materials Engineering with familiarity in CAD or computational fluid dynamic modelling.
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills for experimental design, data interpretation, and problem-solving.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently and as part of a team.

How to Apply
