About the job

For a position as a PhD Candidate, the goal is a completed doctoral education up to an obtained doctoral degree.

As part of the ERC Consolidator grant “Particle Resolving Fluid-Sediment Interaction” (PARTRES), we have a vacancy for a 3-year PhD position at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering within the Marine Civil Engineering group. Representing the interconnected processes of current, waves and sediment transport constitutes an interdisciplinary challenge. In the PARTRES project, the sediment transport will be described through a particle centric numerical framework.

This specific PhD project focuses on the hydro-morphodynamical modelling. Longshore sediment transport has a significant impact on the morphological changes of the coast. Such changes may lead to critical conditions for cross-shore sediment transport and contribute to soil instability and coastal protection failures. In order to account for the large-scale sediment transport under wave and current effects, a computationally efficient numerical model will be used. The simulated large-scale morphological evolution can be used to identify extreme sediment transport events and connected to the particle framework. 

The numerical model used for those activities is the open-source hydrodynamics framework REEF3D (www.reef3d.com). The model is developed in-house and the candidate will be a member of the research team. The new sediment particle transport model will be implemented in REEF3D through a generic particle framework that is parallelized for domain decomposition.

Your immediate leader is the head of department and the main supervisor Professor.

Duties of the position


	work on large-scale sediment transport modelling under waves and currents and connect to the particle-resolved fluid-sediment interaction framework

If you do not have letter grades from previous studies, you must have an equally good academic basis. If you have a weaker grade background, you may be assessed if you can document that you are particularly suitable for a PhD education
	excellent knowledge of fluid mechanics
	strong understanding of ocean waves and wave mechanics
	have extensive experience with numerical modelling of waves, current and/or sediment transport
	have in-depth knowledge on underlying mechanics of sediment transport
	excellent English skills, spoken and written


The appointment is to be made in accordance with Regulations on terms of employment for positions such as postdoctoral fellow, Phd candidate, research assistant and specialist candidate and Regulations concerning the degrees of Philosophiae Doctor (PhD) and Philosodophiae Doctor (PhD) in artistic research national guidelines for appointment as PhD, post doctor and research assistant 

Preferred selection criteria


	programming skills in C/C++, Fortran or Python
	experience with the open-source hydrodynamic framework REEF3D
	experience with open-source software
	to have demonstrated the ability to write and publish international scientific articles based upon carried out research tasks will be considered as an advantage
