[Nek5000-users] PhD student and postdoc positions available

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

I am currently looking for

1. a postdoctoral researcher interested in pursuing research in the field of Computational Fluid

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.

The position is at University of Ottawa in Ottawa, Canada.


2. a PhD student  interested in pursuing a PhD in Mechanical Engineering in the field of

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The topic of research will be adaptive discontinuous Galerkin or
spectral element  methods for direct simulation (incompressible Navier-Stokes equations). Some work on
heavily separated flows may also be done.

Previous experience with CFD and a Master's degree with thesis in a related field are necessary. 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.


French speaking applicants are  eligible for larger scholarships at this bilingual (French-English)
university. Canadian applicants will be  given priority. The deadline for applying for the winter term for
international students is Oct 1.

Please send a short email with cv attached by email with 'Nek5000 PhD application' in the subject line.
