The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Marine Technologies of the University of Rostock, Germany
is seeking candidates to fill the position of
Professor (W2) of Computational Methods for Fluid Dynamics
for an appointment on 01 April 2026.
The professorship represents this field in research and teaching at the faculty. It teaches the fundamentals and specializations of the field in the courses of study Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Sustainable Maritime Engineering and Computational Science and Engineering. The courses should be held in German and English.
We are looking for a person who will shape research at the interface between modelling and computation. The focus will be on researching new approaches in as many of the following areas as possible:
- Numerical Methods in Marine and Offshore Hydrodynamics
- Modelling of fluid dynamic processes in plants and systems for the generation of renewable energies, in
- particular for maritime applications
- Fluid-structure interaction, in particular wave-structure-interaction, slamming, sloshing and hydroelasticity
- Data-driven methods in fluid dynamics.
The focus here is on the development of methods for application in the context of mechanical engineering. The focus of the applications is to be on ship and offshore technology.
