This is a full-time, fixed-term employment of two years.

The research group on Scientific Computing for a Sustainable World works on designing and analyzing numerical methods for the simulation of fluid flows and their interaction with surrounding media. These methods are then used to help design wind turbines, to understand turbulent combustion in jet engines that run on renewable fuel, and to improve climate simulations and weather predictions. The group is active in the national strategic research areas eSSENCE and MERGE and collaborates with the Swedish meteorological and hydrological institute (SMHI) and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).

You will work on methods for interface coupled problems, in particular, but not limited to, the interaction of oceans with sea ice and the atmosphere. We intend to continue our work on the analysis and design of fast iterative coupling methods, based on a domain decomposition approach.

The position includes 20% teaching, such as lectures in existing courses and supervision of Bachelors and Masters Thesis.
