Be the First to ApplyYou will provide technical expertise, support and guidance in research support. You may supervise a number of technical staff but even where you do not directly supervise staff you will still be expected to act as a role model and coach others as appropriate. You will need an in-depth understanding of the research questions, techniques and experimental protocols. You will be able to use your in-depth knowledge to advise on procedures, diagnose and resolve problems, and proactively suggest solutions to issues which arise. You may need to operate out of normal working hours to accommodate experimental procedures. In order to flexibly use resource you may be offered the opportunity to work in different areas of the department or wider university.
This position will focus on developing advanced turbulence simulations with modern data-driven methods to unravel the nonlinear mechanisms of noise generation by turbulent flows, which will inform novel control strategies for reducing noise at the source. This exciting interdisciplinary project lies at the interface of fluid dynamics, acoustics and data science and offers opportunities to collaborate with leading academic and industrial partners, such as from Southampton, Cambridge, MIT and Rolls-Royce.
