Nederland: PhD Studentship in 3D Computer Modelling - Technische Universiteit Eindhoven

Nederland: PhD Studentship in 3D Computer Modelling - Technische Universiteit Eindhoven
PhD Student "Tracers take the tube"
Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department of Applied Physics
Eindhoven, (Noord-Brabant), 40 hours per week

Technische Universiteit Eindhoven

Job description
------------------------------
The PhD project concerns an experimental study, with substantial
theoretical
and numerical aspects, focused on the understanding of particle
advection in
3D time-periodic viscous flows. For this purpose a high-resolution 3D
Particle Tracking Velocimetry method (3D-PTV), employing a four-camera
set-up and dedicated software (developed at ETH, Zurich), will be
adapted
and used for highly-accurate measurement of particle paths, particle
displacements and velocity field. These experimental data will enable
computation of the 3D flow map and the associated deformation tensor.
This
flow map and deformation tensor, in turn, will enable identification of
the
coherent structures (including the small-scale tubes mentioned above)
that
make up the topology and determine the particle advection. Furthermore,
the
3D flow map will admit long-term particle tracking by which the
quantitative
effect of Resonance-Induced Merger upon the particle advection can be
determined. The experimental study thus will include laboratory
experiments
and sophisticated numerical data-processing.

Requirements
------------------------------
Required education/skills:University Graduate
We are looking for an enthusiastic physicist, mechanical engineer or
applied
mathematician with an affinity to fluid dynamics, flow-measurement
techniques, and numerical simulations. The ideal candidate has
experience
with the design and performance of laboratory experiments, development
and
utilisation of numerical tools and fundamental studies on physical flow
phenomena.
Job type: ENG_Onderzoek/ Advies
Workfield(s):
- Research trainees, non-tenured lecturers, researchers
