Description: | |
Computational Fluid Dynamics and Aero-Acoustics (CAA) for Flow-field Modeling and Structural Health Monitoring - (Keywords: Ansys Fluent, COMSOL CFD or similar; Coding - Matlab/Python; Signal Processing; Flow-field measurement and Characterization; Wind Tunnel; Sensor Placement Optimization) The researcher in this position will develop and use computational fluid dynamics and aero-acoustics simulation tools to simulate laminar/turbulent flow fields and assess wind turbine blade damage using acoustic measurements/predictions. The computational tools will also be used to optimize the damage detection capability and sensor placement. The ideal candidate will have a strong interest in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), acoustics, scientific computing, aerodynamics, and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) as well as optimization. Background/experience in Ansys Fluent, COMSOL CFD, OpenFOAM (or similar), computer programming using compiled languages (Python, C, others) and/or Matlab, numerical methods for PDEs (boundary/finite element, finite difference and/or finite volume) and/or prior experience using CFD/CAA tools is strongly preferred. Parallel computing experience is advantageous, but not required. This graduate student is also expected to support sensor hardware development and any testing activities in the lab and in the field. This position requires an undergraduate GPA > 3.5 (or commensurate experience), and satisfactory analytical skills, communication skills, work ethics, integrity, and self-motivation. |
