Research Fellow in Continuum Modelling
University of Leeds
Are you an ambitious researcher looking for development of your research profile in an exciting new area of continuum mechanics? Do you have a background in continuum modelling? Do you want to further your career in one of the UKs leading research-intensive Universities?We are looking for a Research Fellow to join our project developing continuum modelling approaches in a new direction of continuum mechanics addressing the fluid dynamics of polycrystalline materials.The project is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. You will work with the lead Investigator, Dr Sam Pegler, on applying novel mathematical approaches to an exciting new area in modelling polycrystalline materials using continuum mathematics. Such materials are ubiquitous in the natural world, forming the majority of the rocks and minerals of the Solid Earth, as well as ice, a material fundamental to our natural environment and future climate. The role will require formulating a general modelling framework and solution methods by coupling partial differential equations describing the evolution of the material’s crystal microstructure to those describing its macroscopic viscous flow.You will have a PhD in Mathematics, Physics, or a related discipline, with a strong background in continuum mechanics, including mathematical and/or numerical simulation approaches in continuum mechanics. Familiarity with non-Newtonian fluid mechanics would be helpful but not required. You will have the ability to conduct independent research and develop a track record of publications in international journals. In addition, you will have good communication and team-working skills.We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements.To explore the post further or for any queries you may have, please contact:, Lecturer, School of Mathematics (email: )Please note that this post may be suitable for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker visa route but first-time applicants might need to qualify for salary concessions.
