We are seeking to recruit a Postdoctoral Research Associates to work
on the topic of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code development
and application to large civil aircraft. You would hence have a
demonstrable and genuine interest in practical aircraft aerodynamic
simulation. Specifically, the work will contribute to the development
of a next generation CFD code, exploring high-order spatial
discretisation schemes and fast linear/non-linear harmonic methods for
multidisciplinary aeroelastic simulation.
 
You should have a PhD (or be about to obtain) in computational aerodynamics, 
numerical analysis, scientific computing or another relevant quantitative 
science, with specific experience in state-of-the-art computational fluid 
dynamics technology at the developer level (e.g. a track record in programming 
languages such as C++ and Python and experience of working with version control 
systems). Strong interest in computational aircraft aerodynamics and 
aeroelasticity is essential for this position. Excellent and ambitious 
candidates with relevant skills and high levels of achievement are sought. 
The ability to work within a team, to communicate across disciplines and 
to support other researchers is essential.
 
The formal supervisor is Dr Sebastian Timme. You will also engage with other 
members of the CFD group as well as European partners contributing to the 
next-generation CFD project.
 
This post is available as soon as possible until May 2026.
