We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the Numerical Analysis research group at the Department of Engineering Science (Osney). The post is funded by Rolls-Royce and is fixed term for 6 months with possibility of extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ice accretion is a serious threat to civil aviation but also a challenging phenomenon to model. Recent progress in the field has advanced fundamental physical understanding of the phenomena at play but accurate predictions in realistic geometries remain difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be responsible for implementing and validating ice accretion models in a well-established industrial CFD solver. You will be responsible for liaising with our sponsor and for disseminating the results of your work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About you<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should be in possession or be near to completion of a PhD or equivalent qualification in computational fluid dynamics or applied mathematics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we offer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the university of Oxford your happiness and wellbeing at work is important to us. We have a number of generous benefits including 38 days’ annual leave (inclusive of bank holidays and fixed closure days), generous pension schemes and free access to the Oxford colleges. The other benefits include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
