PhD Position in Simulation of Colloids at Department of Mechanical Engineering, RWTH Aachen University, Germany
PhD position in Simulation of Colloids at RWTH Aachen University
The Chair for Computational Analysis of Technical Systems in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the RWTH Aachen University seeks a 50% scientific co-worker (TV-L 13 salary scale). The position will support the German Science Foundation focus program SPP 1273 “Colloid Process Technology” project “CFD Modeling of Colloidal Aggregates”.
The candidate is expected to conduct research leading to a doctoral thesis in the area of method and model development for simulation of colloidal aggregates (collection of spherical particles) in shear flows. The research will support the development of reduced mechanistic models that should be able to predict coalescence and breakup of the aggregates in a stochastic sense, in close
collaboration with a partner project at Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems in Magdeburg.

Applications are being reviewed now. The position is expected to be filled in the second half of 2007. Application materials and inquiries should be directed to:
Prof. Marek Behr (behr[ at ]cats.rwth-aachen.de).
The position will be associated with the graduate school Aachen Institute for Advanced Study in Computational Engineering Science established at the RWTH Aachen under the Excellence Initiative of the German federal and state governments. The half-time position is especially suitable for persons with family commitments; limited child-care support is available.
