Odense M
The Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering (SDU-DME) invites applications for one fully-funded PhD scholarship in advanced numerical methods for time-dependent topology optimisation. The position is expected to start from 15th of May 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. The application deadline is the 1st of March 2024.
What we offer
The PhD project is part of the research project “Breaking the time barrier: COmputational Morphogenesis FOR Time-dependent Problems (COMFORT)” funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF) through a Sapere Aude Starting Grant. The goal of the project is to reduce the time-to-solution of topology optimisation by at least one order-of-magnitude for time-dependent thermal diffusion and incompressible fluid flow. The leader of the research project and PhD supervisor is Assc. Prof. Joe Alexandersen.
The PhD project will focus on the development of advanced numerical methods for high-contrast diffusion based on space-time formulations and multigrid methods. Your primary focus will be method development through mathematical derivations, numerical analysis, and programming. You will assist in developing a general methodology and a numerical implementation, that will subsequently be extended to incompressible flow by another project participant. During the 3-year PhD project, you will visit KU Leuven in Belgium for 4 to 6 months.
Research environment
You will join the ‘Multiphysics Simulation and Optimisation’ (MSO) research group lead by Assc. Prof. Joe Alexandersen at SDU Mechanical Engineering (SDU-ME) in Odense. The research of the MSO group is focused on development of advanced simulation and optimisation methods for multiphysics, fluid flow and conjugate heat transfer problems, but also covers thermomechanical process simulations such as casting and welding. The research activities at SDU-ME spans widely from fluid mechanics, condition monitoring, machine learning, fatigue, maritime structures, to multiphysics simulation and optimisation. SDU-ME is part of the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, which is a multidisciplinary department covering high-frequency electronics, super-capacitors, additive manufacturing, and energy technologies, in addition to the aforementioned. The department is an exciting environment, where you will be exposed to many different fields and have your general academic curiosity stimulated.
What we expect
The scholarship is full-time and the position is in-person only, where you are expected to work primarily on-campus. Foreign candidates are expected to relocate to Denmark for the duration of the employment.
Prior to the application date of 1st of March 2024, you must have fully graduated a Masters degree in a relevant discipline (applied/computational mathematics, simulation technology, computational mechanics, mechanical/aerospace engineering, physics, etc.). If you have not received your final diploma by the application date, please include a grade transcript including final thesis grade. It is not possible to apply with only a Bachelor degree.
You are expected to be proficient in the theory, derivation and implementation of numerical methods, as well as have experience with three or more of the following:
Experience with programming in MATLAB and/or python is sufficient, but additional experience with C/C++ is a definite plus.
The working language of the MSO group is English, so you will be expected to have a documented working level of written and spoken English.
You will be expected to contribute to the teaching activities of the department through acting as teaching assistant, exercise instructor, and/or co-supervisor of students. Contributing to teaching of courses might be relevant depending on experience and conditions.
