Postdoctoral Research Associate in Multiphase Fluid Dynamics
<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<p></p><div>We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to join the Multiphase Fluid Mechanics Group as part of the Contaminated Ocean Spume project, funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), at the Department of Engineering Science (central Oxford). The post is fixed-term for three years. The NERC-funded project will quantify the role of surfactants in the production of spray droplets by the action of wind over ocean waves (i.e. spume). In this role, you will develop numerical, experimental, and (ideally) theoretical models within the topic of surfactant-laden droplet production via the interaction of wind with ocean waves, and of the breakup of such droplets. You will also interact and help with other research lines currently under development in the group, including droplet impact, wave breaking, and bubble & droplet statistics. This is an ideal opportunity for a researcher looking for challenging, exciting, and highly competitive research topics in this area. </div><br>
<div>You should possess a PhD/DPhil in engineering, physics or applied mathematics, and hold a strong publication record in your field. You should have expertise in numerical or experimental modelling (preferably both), with a strong theoretical background in fluid mechanics, especially in droplet or wave physics. </div><br>
<div> </div><br>
<div>Informal enquiries may be addressed to Prof Wouter Mostert (email: wouter.mostert@eng.ox.ac.uk) </div><br>
<div> </div><br>
<div>For more information about working at the Department, see www.eng.ox.ac.uk/about/work-with-us/ Only online applications received before midday on 6th May 2025 can be considered. </div><br>
<div> </div><br>
<div>You will be required to upload a covering letter/supporting statement, (describing how past experience fits with the advertised position), CV and the details of two referees as part of your online application. </div><br>
<div> </div><br>
<div>The Department holds an Athena Swan Bronze award, highlighting its commitment to promoting women in Science, Engineering and Technology.</div>
