University of Cambridge - Department of Engineering
Salary: £27,428 - £35,788 pa
Limit of tenure: 36 months.
A position exists to conduct research aimed at bridging Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)/ Fluctuating Hydrodynamics (FH) with fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The work will involve developing a new unsteady CFD model for FH equations coupled with a fully atomistic simulation in a close collaboration with Aston University, UK, RIKEN Institute and Osaka University, Japan, and the Russian Academy of Sciences and is funded by EPSRC (EP/J004308/1). The candidate should have or be close to completing a PhD in computational fluid dynamics, mathematical modelling or a closely related discipline, have an experience in unsteady code development (e.g., Fortran) and high-performance computing (e.g., MPI). Familiarity with the fluctuating fluid dynamics methods will be beneficial.
Further details may be viewed at http://www2.eng.cam.ac.uk/httperrors/404.html. Applications should include a cover letter, a CV, and a completed form CHRIS 6 Parts I and III (downloadable from http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/hr/forms/chris6/) with the contact details for two referees. These should be sent electronically to Dr S.A. Karabasov (sak36@eng.cam.ac.uk) by 15 June 2011.
