Master internship Integraded Monitoring of Mechanical Properties

IJmuiden

Full-time

Are you looking for a challenging master internship? Are you interested in helping us adding the mechanical properties signal to the monitoring process of galvanised steel strips? We are looking for you!

Wat ga je doen?

Over the past decade, Tata Steel R&D has developed its own software to monitor, predict and control steel strip temperatures in the continuous annealing and hot dip galvanising lines of Tata Steel Europe. As the final mechanical properties depend critically on the microstructure evolution in the annealing furnaces, accurate strip temperature control is essential in ensuring a product of good and homogeneous quality.

Unfortunately, due to product inhomogeneities arising in earlier process steps, good temperature control is not enough to ensure a perfect product. In order to improve the monitoring of mechanical properties during the process, a material model has been developed that can now be run in parallel with the temperature control software. This model generates predictions of the final mechanical properties. The next step in improving the monitoring is to compare these predictions to a measurement, available at the end of the processing line.

Details of the assignment

The primary goal is to add the mechanical properties signal to the monitor, so that the prediction and the measurement can be compared in real time. This task requires adaptation of an existing C# code. Once available, data analysis of the predictions and measurements can be performed with the purpose of a) identifying potential inaccuracies in either the prediction or the measurement, and b) understanding the sensitivity of the mechanical properties (predicted as well as measured) to temperature variations.

Depending on the length of the internship, the assignment can be expanded to use this understanding to generate recommendations for temperature variations beforehand, so that mechanical properties can be improved for future products as well.

Herken jij jezelf hierin?

  • You are looking for a master internship for a 3-6 months durations;
  • You are a master student with a background in materials engineering, mechanical engineering, control engineering, mathematics or physics;
  • You are a student at a Dutch University and you live in the Netherlands;
  • You master the English language;
  • You have experience with code development;
  • You are analytical and eager to learn.

As an extra: affinity with metallurgy, control engineering and/or C# and mastering the Dutch language is nice to have.

Wat bieden wij jou?

  • A paid internship with proper guidance, with an internship compensation between €347,- and €416,- (depending on the type of internship);
  • An assignment which fits the requirements of your university;
  • You can gain valuable experience within a large organization and one of the Netherlands biggest manufacturing industries;
  • During you internship you can participate in event such as student tours and lunch lectures;
  • You have the possibility to make use of our Library Services.

Wat is jouw werkomgeving?

You will work in the Thermal Processes knowledge group, which consists of about fifteen researchers from various backgrounds. Your work will typically consist of code development, but since the final application relies heavily on first principle process models, there is also room to explore some of the physics and metallurgy behind it.

As we have been working from home for most of the past year, we are looking forward to welcoming you in our office where we maintain an energetic, informal working atmosphere.

De Warmbandwalserij is een enorme fabriek midden op het terrein van Tata Steel. Vuistdikke plakken staal van een paar meter komen hier binnen om te worden omgevormd tot opgerolde rollen staal van tientallen meters lang. Hiervoor wordt het staal verwarmd, gewalst en uiteindelijk gewikkeld op een enorme…

Een enorm terrein, gigantische machines en super heet staal; dat is de wereld die ik drie maanden geleden binnenstapte. Als net afgestudeerde student Werktuigbouwkunde had ik gesolliciteerd voor het Technisch Traineeship van Tata Steel. Ik kreeg een plek aangeboden op de onderhoudsafdeling, die voor de gehele site…
