PhD position in fluid mechanics, wave-turbulence interactions: theory, modelling and/or data-driven - Trondheim, Norge - Norwegian University of Science and Technology
Beskrivelse
About the job
For a position as a PhD Candidate, the goal is a completed doctoral education up to an obtained doctoral degree.
We are looking for excellent applicants for a PhD position at the Thermo-Fluids research group, Department of Energy and Process Engineering, NTNU Trondheim.
The position has a duration of 3 years. The supervisor will be Professor whom you may contact for further information.
The position's exact project has considerable flexibility to be tailored to the skills and interests of the successful applicant. It will involve theory, numerics, data analysis and modelling, carried out in close collaboration with a major experimental campaign. Novel data analysis tools may be highly relevant, including (but far from limited to) data-driven algorithms such as dimensionality reduction and governing-equation discovery. Previous knowledge of specific techniques or theory is not required.
The PhD candidate will be primarily affiliated with the research project ": Wave-, Turbulence- and Shear current-Driven mixing under a water surface" () financed by the European Research Council (ERC), whose overall goal is to understand the mutual interactions between waves, currents and turbulence (WCT) in the uppermost layer of the ocean through experimental, numerical and theoretical research. WTC interactions play an important role in the weather and climate systems by mixing the waters, controlling the exchange of heat, gas, energy and momentum between ocean and atmosphere, as well as the transport of microplastics, pollutants and nutrients. A recent experimental article is .
The candidate will investigate how new knowledge of WTC physics can inform better model representations of WTC-driven upper-ocean mixing. There is considerable flexibility in tailoring the project to the candidates' particular strengths and interests, so a range of different educational backgrounds in physics and engineering can be relevant so long as the candidate has a strong background in maths, general physics and programming.
She/he will be part of an excellent team of PhD students and postdocs in WaTurSheD and the closely related project GLITR (also ERC, led by Professor Jason Hearst), and will collaborate closely both within the project groups and with external collaborators in Europe and the USA.
The Thermo-Fluids group is internationally excellent with a cutting-edge team of researchers from many branches of fluid mechanics. The candidate will be part of a vibrant scientific environment.
Your immediate leader is Head of Department.
Duties of the position
Required selection criteria
Please note that experience with ready-made CFD software (e.g., ANSYS Fluent, Star CCM, openFOAM), while potentially useful, is not particularly relevant and does not qualify for the position.
The appointment is to be made in accordance with and
Preferred selection criteria
Personal characteristics
The applicant is expected to contribute to the social and environment and activities, of the Ellingsen group and the larger Thermo-Fluids group above and beyond the position itself.
Emphasis will be placed on personal and interpersonal qualities.
We offer
Salary and conditions
As a PhD candidate (code 1017) you are normally paid from gross NOK per annum before tax, depending on qualifications and seniority. From the salary, 2% is deducted as a contribution to the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund.
The period of employment is 3 years. An extension to 4 years is sometimes offered by the Department, in which case the candidate will do 25% teaching. Note, however, that this eventuality should not be expected: it requires that funding is available and that there is a need which the candidate is deemed the best available persion to fill.
Appointment to a PhD position requires that you are admitted to the PhD programme in Engineering () within three months of employment, and that you participate in an organized PhD programme during the employment period.
