LMS PhD position open on the isogeometric boundary element method

OPEN POSITION AT LMS INTERNATIONAL IN THE FIELD OF

ISOGEMOMETRIC BOUNDARY ELEMENT METHOD

BATWOMAN (Basic Acoustics Training - & Workprogram On

Methodologies for Acoustics - Network) is the Initial Training Network

(ITN) No. 605867, funded under the FP7 Marie Curie programme of

the EC. Duration: Sep. 1, 2013 - Aug. 31, 2017.

CANDIDATE PROFILE: All candidates must be fluent in spoken and

written English. The R&D is highly multidisciplinary. An ideal candidate

has a M.Sc. in engineering (e.g. dynamic, fluid-dynamics, acoustics,

physics) and an adequate mathematical & computational background.

Specific experience with CAE simulation methodologies and

software (Finite Element Method (FEM), Boundary Element

Method (BEM)...) is an advantage.

Knowledge of NURBS-based CAD technology or IsoGeometric

approach is an asset;

Knowledge of programming languages (C/C++, Fortran,

Visual.Basic, ...) and/or knowledge of Matlab are an advantage.

Candidates who have the proper qualifications may get the

opportunity to perform this work as part of a PhD study.

All members of the network are equal opportunity employers, both

female and male candidates are invited to apply.

The research activities will mainly be carried out at Partner LMS

International located in Leuven, Belgium, possibly combined with

research visits and/or short-term secondments to other members of the

network.
