UK: Research Associate in Dynamic Density Functional Theory of Non-Uniform Fluids

Overview

Imperial College London - Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology
Fixed Term appointment for a period of 3 years

Salary: £31,340 per annum

Applications are invited from highly talented researchers for a 36 months Research Associate position funded by the ERC Advanced Grant “Complex Interfacial Flows: From the Nano- to the Macro-Scale” under the supervision of Dr S Kalliadasis.

The project concerns the theoretical formalism of dynamic density functional theory of non-uniform fluids. Of particular interest is a liquid-gas interface in contact with a solid substrate. The ultimate aim is the development of a rigorous microscopic approach for the description of such interfaces based on first principles.

Eligible Candidates

The successful candidate should have a PhD (or equivalent) in Applied Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, or other related area and a strong foundation on general mathematical modelling, mathematical techniques (analytical and numerical) and thermodynamics/statistical mechanics. A good knowledge of density functional theory is highly desirable.

He/she will join a highly interdisciplinary team working on a wide variety of exciting projects at the interface between applied mathematics and engineering science fundamentals.


If you would like to discuss the project, please contact Dr Serafim Kalliadasis at S.Kalliadasis@imperial.ac.uk, Tel: +44-(0)-20-7594-1373 +44-(0)-20-7594-1373, postal address: Department of Chemical Engineering, Imperial College, London SW7 2AZ, UK.
