Lecturer in Fluids Simulation

7 months ago

Manchester, United Kingdom The University of Manchester Full time

Applications are now open for an exciting academic position aimed at conducting pioneering research in the fields of fluids simulation and digital twins.

Manchester has long been a leader in Engineering, with historical routes dating back to the Industrial Revolution and the foundation of The Institute of Mechanics in 1824. Today, the taught programmes of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil engineering welcome over 2000 students across the spectrum of courses, and our related departments are a home to over 200 academic and research staff.

A cornerstone of our world-leading research activity is the advancement of computational engineering. A dynamic team of over 40 staff explore a diverse array of topics within this field, impacting various sectors and industries. Our interdisciplinary approach not only enhances our understanding but also drives innovation and education across multiple domains.

A recent national report highlighted 'Faster Digital Design' as a critical unmet challenge in today's society and industry. Digital twins, which are virtual models that accurately mirror physical objects, processes, or systems, are increasingly utilized to enhance system performance, pre-emptively address problems, enable accelerated design, and streamline processes. Fluids simulation often remains the bottleneck in such models, underscoring the pressing need for research into cost-effective yet accurate methods.
- Development of fluids simulation strategies tailored to clean energy; including technology for hydrogen and other sustainable fuels; combustion dynamics; super/hypersonic flows.
- Enhancement of particle-based methods like Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) applied to multiphase flows and natural hazards.
- Application and development of advanced numerical methods for simulating turbulent flow and multi-physics to high orders of accuracy, e.g. flux reconstruction, discontinuous Galerkin and spectral difference methods.

The University also holds a Bronze Race Charter Mark recognising our commitment to improving the representation, progression and success of minority ethnic staff and students within higher education. In addition, we are a Disability Confident Employer, guaranteeing an interview for any disabled applicant who meets the minimum requirements for a job.
