PhD Studentship / PostDoc position
(TV-L E13 salary, previously BAT IIa)
FEATFLOW Group, Institute of Applied Mathematics
University of Dortmund, Germany
A fully funded research position is available for up to 4 years (with a possibility of extension) in the framework of the project "Modeling and numerical simulation of coating processes by means of thermal spraying" under the auspices of the collaborative research programme "3D-Surface Engineering for Metal Sheet Component Manufacturing Equipment" (SFB 708).
The research to be conducted is aimed at the development of a 3D simulation tool for turbulent gas-particle flows on the basis of the software package FEATFLOW (http://www.featflow .de). The mathematical model to be implemented is based on a system of compressible Navier-Stokes- equations coupled with scalar transport equations for volume fractions and other variables. Programming is to be done in Fortran 77/90 under UNIX/Linux.
Applicants should have a solid background in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics and numerical methods for PDEs. Experience in some of the following areas is desirable
- finite element methods, adaptive mesh refinement techniques
- numerical solution of the Euler- and/or Navier-Stokes equations
- implementation of multiphase flow and/or turbulence models
Applications will be considered until the position is filled.
Letters of application including a CV and a summary of research interests should be addressed to
Prof. Dr. Stefan Turek (ture@featflow. de) or
JProf. Dr. Dmitri Kuzmin (kuzmin@math. uni-dortmund. de)
