A PhD student assistantship is available in the Department of Mathematics and
Statistics at Old Dominion University (Norfolk, VA). This position will provide
a unique opportunity to work on a cutting-edge project in the group of Prof. N.
Yamaleev in close collaboration with research scientists of NASA Langley
Research Center. Current research in the group focuses on the development of
new entropy stable schemes for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations,
adjoint-based methods for optimization of turbulent flows, and grid adaptation
methods based on error minimization. Our group has a history of producing
highly educated, independent, exceptionally talented PhD students and postdocs.
More information about our research can be found at:
https://www.odu.edu/directory/people/n/nyamalee#profiletab=1. A typical PhD
study in our group leads to participation in national and international
conferences and meetings, multiple publications in top journals such as Journal
of Computational Physics, Computers & Fluids, AIAA Journal etc., and ample
opportunities for networking with leading research scientists from NASA,
national labs, academia, and industry.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated PhD candidate with a
M.S. or B.S. degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering or a closely
related field. A solid background in numerical methods for PDEs, strong hands-
on experience with programming in Fortran 90 or C++, and effective
communication skills (written/spoken English) are required.
The start date for this position is September 2021. Interested candidates should
apply for a graduate assistantship in computational and
applied mathematics at: https://www.odu.edu/admission/graduate . Further
details on how to apply can be found at:
