Marie Curie PhD fellowships - Mathematical Modelling in Oceanography

The University of Leeds, Faculty of Mathematics and Physical Sciences is accepting applications for:

Marie Curie Early Stage Researchers (PhD positions) in Mathematical Modelling

Fixed term for 36 months, subject to signed contract being received from the European Commission.

SURFS-UP: Freak Waves and Breaking Wave Impact on Offshore Structures 


You will carry out research and participate in the activities of “SURFS-UP: Freak Waves and Breaking Wave Impact on Offshore Structures”, a new Marie Curie European Industry Doctorate project (EID) devoted to the science of breaking waves and their impact on offshore wind farms.

An Early Stage Researcher (ESR) position is a Marie Curie Fellowship for postgraduate research, and concerns study towards a doctoral degree (PhD).  ESRs are normally based outside the country of their nationality, in this case concerning study in both the UK and The Netherlands.  The EID project provides an excellent opportunity for scientific and personal development, with regular training courses in scientific and general transferable skills both at the University of Leeds, in the UK, and the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN), in the Netherlands. There is also the chance to meet and discuss problems with leading scientists in the field (including several international visiting scientists).


You will have a Personal Career Development Plan, designed with the supervisors from Leeds and MARIN at the beginning of the fellowship, covering training needs (including complementary skills) and scientific objectives.  The first 18 months will be spent at the University of Leeds, followed by an EU-secondment of 18 months at MARIN (totalling 36 months). There is also a potential opportunity for the ESRs to be employed and funded by MARIN for a subsequent 6 months following the 36 month appointment at Leeds.
Two research topics are available at the University of Leeds.  The first is a computational/mathematical modelling project on variational water wave models and freak waves (variational water wave models and pyramidal freak waves). The second is a fluid dynamical modelling/numerical project focussing on breaking waves and hydro-elastic response of offshore wind turbines (wave slamming by breaking waves).

You must be eligible to be appointed as an Early Stage Researcher in the UK. European and International applications are welcomed; however nationals or residents of the UK and The Netherlands can only apply when they were outside these countries for more than 24 months in the last three years.  Applications for women, who are currently under-represented in this area, will be particularly welcome; however, the final recruitment decision will be based solely on merit.

You will be offered a salary plus allowances in line with the Marie Curie Framework 7 requirements for Early Stage Researchers.

The ESR salary is fixed at €51,072 per year, plus allowances, which will be paid in Sterling using an appropriate conversion rate. Any subsequent employment with MARIN following the 36 month appointment at Leeds will be financed separately by MARIN. 

Closing Date: 6 May 2014

PhD Studentship - Sound and Vibration Research - Aeroacoustics

PhD Studentship - Sound and Vibration Research - Aeroacoustics
University of Southampton · Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR)
United Kingdom, Southampton
PhD Studentship
Spectral broadening in aeroacoustics
Applications are invited for a PhD research student working on Aeroacoustics. The project is supported by Rolls-Royce plc and will be supervised within the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre (UTC) in Gas Turbine Noise at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR) at the University of Southampton. The successful applicant will join a strong team at the UTC working on new research to reduce aircraft noise.
Reducing the environmental impact of civil aviation is critical to the growth of air transport and to the future of the aircraft industry. Ambitious environmental goals for the industry have been set by the Advisory Council for Aeronautics Research in Europe (ACARE). These include reducing by 97% (15 dB) the noise from civil aircraft by 2050.
Work undertaken in this project will focus on scattering of tonal noise, produced by the fan and turbine, by the turbulent exhaust jet from an aero-engine. The key aim will be to acquire a model-scale experimental database of measurements of the scattering obtained in the laboratory. There is currently no such database available; the data will be used for validation purposes to support the development of robust, validated prediction methods, as well as to improve our understanding of the scattering phenomenon. The work will include experimental fluid dynamics, data appraisal, and some theoretical modelling.
The studentship would provide support at standard EPSRC rates (currently around £13,900 p.a.) and EU/UK tuition fees for three years. The start date will be 1st October 2014, or earlier with agreement. Applicants should have a good first degree in a relevant science or engineering subject. Ideally the candidate should have some experience in experimental fluid dynamics and/or aeroacoustics.

Details of how to apply online may be found at: http://www.southampton.ac.uk/engineering/postgraduate/research_degrees/apply.page
