To experimentally investigate the dynamics and thickness of liquid films at low temperatures and improve predictions of liquid films transition into rivulets
- To predict the transition of the water film into rivulets on a rigid surface and which rivulet pattern is adopted
- Test different experimental approaches as fast imagery and LED Induced Fluorescence to analyze water film transition into rivulets
- Investigate water film thickness by a resistive method

Gross Salary
A monthly amount of 4557.60 € will be provided by the Research Executive Agency. This sum is made up of the monthly Living Allowance in the amount of 3957.60 € which already includes the country coefficient specified by the European Commission and the Mobility Allowance of 600.00 €. Moreover, a family allowance of 660.00 € is provided if the recruited doctoral candidate has or acquires family obligations during the action duration. This monthly amount corresponds to the budgetary burden for the employment of the EU researcher and equals the gross salary (i.e. before any deductions, such as health insurance, social security, taxes…) for the activities to be remunerated.
