<pre>I am currently looking for </pre>
<pre>1. a postdoctoral researcher interested in pursuing research in the field of Computational Fluid </pre>
<pre>Dynamics (CFD). The main topic of research will be adaptive discontinuous Galerkin or spectral element
methods for direct simulation (incompressible Navier-Stokes equations), and other projects may include
control of separated flows, transition, aerodynamics and CFD for blood flow.
A PhD degree in CFD or Fluid Dynamics including code development and high performance computing is
necessary. The candidate must have already published journal articles. Experience with spectral methods,
Nek5000, and VISIT is a plus. The ideal candidate will have excellent computer programming skills,
communication skills (written, oral, graphical and with others in the research group), self-motivation and
an open mind. The position also requires some training of graduate students.
Please send a short email with cv attached by email with 'Nek5000 Postdoc application' in the subject
line. Ideally this would be for November-December 2012 timeframe.</pre>
<pre>The position is at University of Ottawa in Ottawa, Canada. </pre>
