PhD Positions at CIMNE/UPC, Barcelona: Computational Mechanics/Physics

/ January 17, 2011 Leave a Comment

The International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) is seeking candidates for PhD studies.
Students will belong to the newly created Computational Mathematics and Physics department, which will be focused on the development of computational methods for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations (PDEs).
The creation of this group is funded by the Starting Grant COMFUS,recently awarded to Dr. Santiago Badia by the European Research Council
(ERC). COMFUS is a five-year project that aims to advance in the field of numerical methods for fusion reactors technology. It involves the numerical approximation of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), electromagnetics and plasma physics.
We are looking for motivated engineers, mathematicians and physicists with background on finite element methods, numerical analysis and/or parallel computing.
Some of the active lines of research of the group are: finite element formulations for thermally coupled MHD, MHD turbulence modeling, Vlasov-Maxwell solvers, fluid-structure interaction, linear solvers for sparse saddle-point matrices and parallel computing.

Send your application, providing CV, to:comfus-at-cimne.upc.edu

Scholarship Application Deadline: Apply before the end of January 2011

The Graduate School of the John F. Kennedy-Institute for North American Studies invites applications for the academic year 2011/2012. Six academic disciplines in the humanities and social sciences collaborate in offering a structured curriculum. The doctoral program is interdisciplinary in its approach and focuses on those social transformations impacting the United States and Canada at the beginning of the 21st century. Areal of emphasis include domestic and foreign policy, economic development, ethnic identity and relations, as well as recent transformations in media, art, literature, culture, and religion. The language of instruction is English.

Applicants interested in pursuing a doctorate with an emphasis in North American Studies must have a completed degree (M.A. or the equivalent) with above average marks in one of the following disciplines: American Cultural Studies, American Literature, History, Political Science, Sociology and Economics. Grants are awarded for a maximum of three years. Continued funding past the first year is based upon a positive annual evaluation of progress.
