Study Subject(s): Position is offered for a project on multiscale simulation software for industrial metal forming processes.
Course Level: This position is available for pursuing PhD degree level at KU Leuven.
Scholarship Provider: KU Leuven
Scholarship can be taken at: Belgium
Eligibility:
-You should have an MSc degree in one of the following majors: applied mathematics, computer science, materials science, engineering or physics. He or she should have a background in one or more of the following areas: high performance scientific computing, computational mechanics.
-You should be interested in working in a multi-disciplinary research team.
-Good knowledge of the English language, both spoken and written, is essential.
-You will contribute to the optimization of the software for parallel execution on clusters of multicore processors. You will be able to make use of the HPC research facilities of the KU Leuven and the Flemish Supercomputer Centre (VSC).
Scholarship Open for International Students: The students of Belgium can apply for this position.
Scholarship Description: The PhD project fits into the KU Leuven Knowledge Platform M2Form on ‘Software for Multi-scale Simulations of Material Forming Processes’, a collaborative effort of the Departments of Computer Science and of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering. The Knowledge Platform aims at creating and providing expertise on multi-scale computational models to industry, in the form of a software solution. The research group Scientific Computing (Dept. of Computer Science) focuses on the development of numerical methods, algorithms and software for large-scale simulation in science and engineering. Important topics are numerical methods for multi-scale simulation and high performance computing.
The aim of the PhD project is to further develop hierarchical multiscale modelling software for the simulation of metal forming processes. Within the existing software framework, new numerical multiscale methods will be developed.
What does it cover? They offer a fax-free PhD grant to work in an interdisciplinary environment.
How to Apply: The students can apply via the online application tool.
Scholarship Application Deadline: You can apply for this job no later than June 15, 2013.
