Subject: [SIAM-CSE] PhD Positions in Computational Mechanics and
Numerical Analysis, UPC-BarcelonaTech
To: SIAM-CSE at siam.org


Six PhD positions are available at the Laboratory of Computational
Methods and Numerical Analysis (http://www-lacan.upc.edu/) of the
Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya-BarcelonaTech
(http://www.upc.edu/) in Spain.

The four-year PhD fellowships cover the full tuition, a monthly
stipend, and health insurance.

The main research areas of the doctoral positions are:
- Reliable and robust model reduction for real-time simulations
- Phase field modeling and simulation of fracture in active materials
and of biomembranes
- Numerical methods for coupling heterogeneous models
- Computer simulation of hydraulic fracturing in three-dimensions

Details about the different positions can be found at
http://www.lacan.upc.edu/node/49

Applicants should hold a degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics
or a related field. They will be evaluated on the basis of their
academic record and credentials, their previous exposure to
computational fluid or solid mechanics, numerical analysis, continuum
mechanics, applied mathematics or scientific computing, a Master
degree in a related field, previous research experience if any, and
the English proficiency.

For further information about the specific projects, for general
inquiries and for application to any of the positions, please use the
address open.positions.lacan at gmail.com.
The application material should include a complete CV with the names
and contact information of up to three referees, a short statement of
purpose (max one page), the academic records (transcripts), and
explicit mention of the position or positions the candidate is
interested in.
