Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department of Mathematics and Computer science
Job description
Project description:
At this PhD position you will work on the analysis, modeling and simulation of "Reaction-diffusion systems on multiple spatial scales". Typical examples of such problems are the distributed-microstructure models obtained by periodic homogenization from an exact micro-model. An important feature of this class of problems is that the homogenized system recognizes the distributed-concentration exchange across the internal fixed and/or moving boundaries. The “distributed-microstructure” methodology will be applied to a dissolution/precipitation/flow scenario arising in the transport of salts in unsaturated porous media.
As a PhD Student Reaction-diffusion systems multiple spatial scales you will forfill the following task:
- perform scientific research;
- present results on international conferences;
- publish results in scientific journals
Required education/skills:University Graduate
We are looking for a candidate who meets the following requirements:
- a M.Sc. in Mathematics,
- strong affinity with partial-differential equations,
- good communication and writing skills in English.
Prior knowledge of homogenization and modeling of reaction-diffusion scenarios is an advantage but not a must.
Workfield(s):
- Research trainees, non-tenured lecturers, researchers
