Modeling of Fluid-Solid Interaction by Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics: PDF and 
PhD positions are currently available in the field of Smoothed Particle 
Hydrodynamics. The research specifically focuses on the modeling of Non-
Newtonian multiphase flow, and fluid-solid interactions (FSI) and will 
therefore involve the development of an FSI-SPH solver with the capability of 
treating multiphase Newtonian and non-Newtonian flow problems. Suitable 
candidates should have a strong background in fluid mechanics and transport 
phenomena, and be able to program with Fortran and C programming languages. Our 
current ISPH and WCSPH codes are able to model single and multiphase Newtonian 
and Non-Newtonian flows. Interested candidates should e-mail their statement of 
purpose, and detailed CV including their publication records to Dr. Mehmet 
Yildiz, meyildiz@sabanciuniv.edu, Sabanci University, Faculty of Engineering 
and Natural Sciences. Only successful candidates will be informed about the 
outcome of their applications after May 15, 2013. Application deadline is May 
10, 2013.
