The project will start Nov 2012 and run for 4 years. The PhD students in the network will receive training in a wide area of adjoint methods, high-performance computing, industrial application and other professional skills through regular workshops and secondments to network partners. The project offers a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of this revolutionary area of research and be part of developing the next generation CFD methods.
Candidates need to fulfill the EC's eligibility criteria: They must have graduated with a first degree in engineering, applied mathematics or computer science at most 4 years ago. They must not have resided or carried out their main activity in the country of their PhD hosting organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years before the project starts. The project is committed to equal opportunity for all applicants and will adhere to the The European Charter for Researchers.
For details about the offered PhD topics please contact the associated supervisors directly, for general queries please contact the project coordinator Dr. J.-D. Mueller, j.mueller@qmul.ac.uk.
