Research Associate in Multiscale Analysis of Active-Dissipative Nonlinear Spatially Extended Media <London, UK>
Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology and Department of Mathematics, Imperial College London
Fixed Term appointment for a period of 3.0 years
Salary: £31,340 per annum
Applications are invited by highly talented researchers for a 36 months Postdoctoral Research Associate position funded by the EPSRC Grant "Active-dissipative nonlinear spatially extended media: Complexity, coarse-graining, multiscale analysis and numerical methods" under the joint supervision of Dr S Kalliadasis, Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology and Dr GA Pavliotis, Department of Mathematics.
The systematic derivation of reduced low-dimensional models for the effective dynamics of spatially extended systems poses a great scientific challenge with important technological applications. The primary aim of the proposed research is the development of state-of-the-art analytical and numerical methodologies for mode reduction, coarse-graining and multiscale analysis of SES, both deterministic and stochastic.
The successful candidate should have a PhD in Applied Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, or other related area and a strong foundation on applied mathematics/general mathematical modelling, mathematical techniques and stochastic processes. A good knowledge of theoretical fluid mechanics including interfacial/low-to-moderate-Reynolds numbers flows is highly desirable. He/she will be based in the Chemical Engineering Department and will join two highly interdisciplinary teams in Engineering and Mathematics working on a wide variety of exciting projects on the interface between applied mathematics and engineering science fundamentals, stochastic processes, statistical physics, multiscale methods and partial differential equations.
