Hidden convexity in the heat, linear transport, and Euler's rigid body equations: A computational approach

This work deals with the hydrodynamic interaction of two parallel circular cylinders, with identical radii, immersed in a viscous fluid initially at rest. One cylinder is stationary while the other one is imposed a harmonic motion with a moderate amplitude of vibration. The direction of motion is parallel to the line joining the centers of the two cylinders. The two dimensional fluid–structure problem is numerically solved by the Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian method implemented in the open-source CFD code TrioCFD.

A postdoctoral researcher position is available beginning July 1, 2023 in Professor Ryan Hurley’s laboratory (http://hurley.me.jhu.edu) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute at the Johns Hopkins University.

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our latest paper published in ACS Nano: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsnano.3c01223

We are currently looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate. The position can start immediately but US citizenship is preferred.

The advantage of simplicity is that mechanics and physics can be understood and predicted just by using pen and paper. In the end, numerics may have to be used but then you should already have a pretty good idea of what happens. The other way around, starting with numerics and a limited toolbox of models will seldom lead to anything new. 

The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (http://mie.njit.edu) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (http://www.njit.edu) has an opening for a fully funded Ph.D. position. The position will start in Fall 2023/Spring 2024. Interested candidates should apply as soon as possible. Email: dibakar.datta [at] njit.edu
