Researcher Corrosion and CFD simulations

Roles & Responsibilities :

For this profile the focus is set on modeling interfacial reactions which is of great importance for proper long term functioning of products in electromobility and regenerative energy tech.

Youll derive and implement strategies for cross-scale description of the interaction of multi-phase fluids and metals with a focus on electrochemistry and fluid dynamics.

You will develop and apply 2D / 3D multi-physics models using numerical simulations along with the requisite scripting and programming.

For certain modelling tasks youll combine physics-based models with data-based approaches for efficiency and accuracy gains.

Youll parameterize and validate models with available data using multivariate statistics.

You will work in international teams and perform necessary development / implementation tasks to accomplish the research goals.

Publish research findings in reputable journals and conferences.
