heterogeneous solids. In addition to delivering high-quality research outputs, The
researcher will contribute to the activities of the research team led by Pr
Bordas and Dr Kerfriden in terms of undergraduate student supervision and
MSc/PhD supervision.

The successful candidate will have experience with advanced
numerical methods such as multiscale/multigrid methods, domain decomposition
and advanced discretisation methods for PDEs and/or with numerical analysis
such as model and discretisation error estimation.

The interested candidate should contact Dr Kerfriden
