"""Job Description _________________________________________________________________________ Summary Job title Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Control Engineering Division Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division Department Engineering Science Location Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PJ Grade and salary Grade 7: £38,674 - £46,913 per annum Hours Full time Contract type Fixed term for 36 months Reporting to Professor Antonis Papachristodoulou Vacancy reference 179665 Research topic Performance Analysis and Verification of Nonlinear PDEs using Polynomial Optimisation Principal Investigator / supervisor Professor Antonis Papachristodoulou Project web site https://sysos.eng.ox.ac.uk Funding partner Recent publications The funds supporting this research project are provided by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2019.418 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sysconle.2017.08.002 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.automatica.2015.12.010 https://doi.org/10.1109/TAC.2015.2479135 The role This Postdoctoral Research Assistant (PDRA) position is supported by an NSF-EPSRC joint project on “Performance Analysis and Verification of Nonlinear PDEs using Polynomial Optimisation”. The PDRA will be directly supervised by Professor Antonis Papachristodoulou (Engineering Science) and will be embedded in a project team that includes Professor Matthew Peet of Arizona State University (ASU) and a doctoral student at ASU. The aim of the project is to develop techniques based on sum of squares and polynomial optimisation for the performance analysis and verification of systems described by Partial Differential Equations and apply these to problems in fluid mechanics. The work will be partly mathematical, partly computational and will involve developing algorithms and implementing these in software for the automated analysis and verification of classes of PDEs. This is a unique opportunity for a young researcher holding or about to obtain a PhD in Mathematics or Control Theory to undertake research in this interdisciplinary area. The exciting feature of this project is that the Postdoctoral Research Assistant will be collaborating with researchers in the USA. The main idea that underpins this research is that Sum of Squares approaches for stability analysis and design of nonlinear ODE systems can be applied to infinite dimensional systems described by PDEs and implemented in flow control applications. For the work at Oxford, the following three main tasks are envisioned: 1) Develop a Sum of Squares approach to systems described by a classes of PDEs to investigate their stability properties. 2) Implement these methods in software. 3) Illustrate how these tools can be applied on fluid dynamics problems. The PDRA will be reporting on the progress of the research to the PI and will present the results of the research at team meetings. They will help in the development of scientific papers to disseminate the results of this work to international scientific journals and will present the work at seminars and conferences.

The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences Division The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division is one of the four academic divisions of the University. In the results of the six-yearly UK-wide assessment of university research, REF2014, the MPLS division received the highest overall grade point average (GPA) and the highest GPA for outputs. We received the highest proportion of 4* outputs, and the highest proportion of 4* activity overall. More than 50 per cent of MPLS activity was assessed as world leading. The MPLS Division's 10 departments and 3 interdisciplinary units span the full spectrum of the mathematical, computational, physical, engineering and life sciences, and undertake both fundamental research and cutting-edge applied work. Our research addresses major societal and technological challenges and is increasingly focused on key interdisciplinary issues. MPLS is proud to be the home of some of the most creative and innovative scientific thinkers and leaders working in academe. We have a strong tradition of attracting and nurturing the very best early career researchers who regularly secure prestigious fellowships. We have around 6,000 students and play a major role in training the next generation of leading scientists. Oxford's international reputation for excellence in teaching is reflected in its position at the top of the major league tables and subject assessments. MPLS is dedicated to bringing the wonder and potential of science to the attention of audiences far beyond the world of academia. We have a strong commitment to supporting public engagement in science through initiatives including the Oxford Sparks portal (http://www.oxfordsparks.net/) and a large variety of outreach activities. We also endeavour to bring the potential of our scientific efforts forward for practical and beneficial application to the real world and our desire is to link our best scientific minds with industry and public policy makers.

Further information about the Department is available at www.eng.ox.ac.uk/about/. The Control Group The control group within the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford was formed nearly 60 years ago. Currently, the group consists of nine members of academic staff, together with over 40 postdoctoral researchers and postgraduate students. One member of the group is a Fellow of the IEEE and academics regularly receive awards for their publications, teaching and supervision. Current areas of activity within the control group span both theory and applications. At the theory end, members of the group work on large-scale, embedded, robust and distributed optimization, polynomial/sum of squares methods and optimal, robust, and model predictive control. The group also covers applications ranging from biology to battery/energy management systems, transportation, aerospace, manufacturing systems and agriculture. This research is being carried out in collaboration with other academics in the Department of Engineering Science, as well as with other departments within Oxford (including Computer Science, Mathematics, Materials, Biology, Geography, and Biochemistry) and with other universities in the UK and abroad, as well as with industrial partners.
