PhD Project on Adaptive Probabilistic Meshless Methods

There is an opening for a PhD student to work with me and co-PIs Jon Cockayne and James Kermode on the project “Adaptive probabilistic meshless methods for evolutionary systems” as part of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Modelling of Heterogeneous Systems at the University of Warwick.

This project will develop and implement a new class of numerical solvers for evolving systems such as interacting fluid-structure flows. To cope with extreme strain rates and large deformations these new solvers will be adaptive and meshless, and they will also implicitly represent their own solution uncertainty, thus enabling optimal design and uncertainty quantification. This exciting project brings together aspects of continuum mechanics, numerical methods for partial differential equations, and statistical machine learning.

Interested students should contact me and the other PIs with informal queries. Formal applications should use the HetSys application page.
