Multiscale Advection Diffusion Analysis Lab (MADAL) led by Prof. Leitao Chen in the Mechanical Engineering department at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University has multiple openings for fully funded Ph.D. positions. Our lab specializes in the development and application of computational models for fluid transport processes that feature multi-scale and multi-physics phenomena for a wide range of applications, including energy systems (including renewables), thermal management, oil and gas recovery, plasma physics, and biofluids.

Preferred candidate qualifications include:
●     B.S./M.S. degree in engineering, mathematics, physics, or computer science is required.
●     Expertise in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) or other computational methods.
●     Solid knowledge of fluid dynamics and heat transfer.
●     Proficiency in programming languages such as C/C++, Fortran, Python, Matlab
●     Experience in High-Performance Computing (HPC) on CPU or GPU platforms.
●     Knowledge of lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and other kinetic models.

Applicants must submit: 1) Cover Letter; 2) CV; 3) Transcripts of B.S. and/or M.S. degrees; and 4) Names and contact information of three references to leitao.chen@erau.edu. Screening of the applications will start upon receipt and continue until the positions are filled.
