tenure-track group leader in Designer Matter (AMOLF Amsterdam)

Research institute AMOLF (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) is looking for a tenure-track group leader in the field of Designer Matter.
For this opening, possible topics include:
– metamaterials and systems that process information;
– spatiotemporally complex chemical pathways and assembly;
– the use of machine learning to analyze and design new materials.
Other inspiring research topics in this area will also be considered.

If you know of suitable candidates, I would be most indebted if you would forward this email, or contact me directly.

AMOLF is highly committed to diversity. Therefore, we strongly encourage women to apply. The deadline for applications is April 10, 2020. This date may be extended to ensure a diverse pool of applicants. For further information and to apply, please visit: amolf.nl/jobs/types/amolf-group-leader

Warmest wishes, Martin van Hecke

——————————————————–
AMOLF is a world-leading interdisciplinary research institute focussed on the Physics of Functional Complex Matter. Central to the mission of AMOLF is to initiate promising new research directions. We offer a scientifically inspiring collaborative environment, state-of-the-art infrastructure and an interdisciplinary research program. AMOLF is located at the Science Park in Amsterdam, in close proximity of the University of Amsterdam and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

Our tenure track system is modeled on the US system, with similar independence and career perspectives, and with a generous start up package (investment and personnel). The Dutch funding system is particularly attractive for junior staff building up a new group, as there are a variety of substantial personal grants available for junior people. Successful candidates will be able to start a group as independent principal investigator, with a clear path to a permanent position after 5 years.

poste chercheur Ifremer « conceptualization and numerical sediment transport modelling » (Brest)

A permanent research position is open at Ifremer (Brest, France) on
conceptualization and numerical sediment transport modelling.

Anticipating future trajectories of coastal seascapes and related sediment habitats in response to global changes and actual pressures requires
determining and modelling the main mechanisms driving sediment dynamics.
In this context, the IFREMER/DHYSED laboratory has developed over the last
decades the MUSTANG <https://wwz.ifremer.fr/dyneco/Lab.-Dhysed/MUSTANG>
process-based numerical model. This model can simulate the main processes
driving the coastal sediment dynamics and is coupled with hydrodynamics
and ecological models, hence contributing to provide an integrated
approach of the ecosystem dynamics.

As the successful candidate, you will be in charge of developing
innovative approaches for modelling mixed sediment dynamics (sand/mud)
and associated processes. Various mechanisms can be considered, among
them (but not exhaustively):

Analysing and conceptualizing inter-granular processes, and related
vertical structuration of the sediment matrix,
       Investigating the cohesive behaviour of sediment mixtures and its
consequences on sediment erosion/resuspension,
       Extending the 1DV approach of the sediment compartment toward a 3D
approach,
Developing the innovative continuous modelling approach, originally
conceptualized in the laboratory and fully complementary to the more
traditional partitioned sediment/water column approach,

The researcher will also be in charge of managing and maintaining the
MUSTANG numerical model at the state of the art, closely interacting with
the researchers and engineers in the laboratory, and users both in Ifremer
and in a national/international context. This position also provides
opportunities to collaborate with modellers in ecology for predicting the
future of coastal ecosystems.
Requirements :

PhD in physical oceanography or numerical modelling,
Solid knowledge on sediment dynamics, sedimentary processes and their
conceptualization,
Strong/Advanced experience on numerical modelling,
Strong skills in programming languages under intensive computing
environments,
Good synthesis, writing and communicating skills,
Fluent English.

Applicants can contact Dr Romaric Verney (romaric.verney@ifremer.fr
<mailto:romaric.verney@ifremer.fr>) for further information. Applications
must be completed online through our portal (follow the link
