Research Associate Position
Research Associate Position in Fluid Dynamics 'Fluid dynamics of the interaction of mean flows and turbulence', Department of Applied Mathematics, University of Leeds with LIFD Director Steve Tobias
We are looking for a Research Fellow to join our project, working on performing Direct Statistical Simulation (DSS) of partial differential equations (PDEs) and Machine Learning for turbulent flows. The project, which combines several new areas in statistics, PDEs and automated computational science, is funded by an award of a targeted grant from the Simons Foundation. The project is funded as part of the project “Revisiting the turbulence problem using statistical mechanics”.
You will work with Investigator Professor Steven Tobias and his Co-Investigators to conduct research into the interaction of inhomogeneous and anisotopic turbulent flows with mean flows. The aim of the project is to understand factors that contribute to transition to turbulence and the generation of mean flows in geophysical and astrophysical contexts. As part of this, you will learn different mathematical and computational techniques, and apply them to diverse physical applications.
