Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) Full time

Job Description:

The Postdoc position is a part of the research project INF4INITY, which investigates floating wind turbines with Nature Inspired design of scour protection and motion damping systems for the floating system. The objectives are to develop and use new methods for analyzing performance of porous structural parts in marine structures.

This position is located in the coastal group of the section for Fluid Mechanics, Coastal and Maritime Engineering. As a Postdoc, you will model the effects of wave, current, and sea-bed interaction with porous structures that is a part of a new Floating Wind Turbine concept. You will work in close collaboration with faculty, researchers, PhD students, as well as with MSc-students.

  • Set-up tests in OpenFOAM
  • Implement and further develop recently developed methods for free-surface and turbulence in porous media
  • Include sediment transport schemes in the modeling
  • Assess sand transport interaction with porous structures
  • Co-supervise master projects
  • Assist with collaboration with other project members in INF4INITY
  • Contribute to scientific publications and reports

Required Qualifications:

  • A PhD degree in Civil/Marine Engineering with specialization in marine structures (or equivalent)
  • Excellent programming capabilities in, for instance, MATLAB
  • Excellent knowledge of the CFD library OpenFOAM
  • Good knowledge of C++ programming
  • Good capabilities in reporting

Benefits:

  • DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation, and scientific advice
