Research line: Rubén Zorrilla's research is mainly focused on the resolution of multiphysics engineering problems, with special emphasis on the Fluid-Structure Interaction one. In this regard, he plans to continue exploiting his previous research on CFD and FSI non-conforming mesh methods to extend their application range to exact geometry representation solvers as well as to the Fluid-Structure-Contact Interaction problem.
He also aims at complementing these main research lines with the development and implementation of numerical methods for other engineering problems such as the compressible Navier-Stokes equations or the free-surface flows.
As an important member of the Kratos Multiphysics community, he is also expected to maintain his contribution level by doing code revision, maintenance, documentation and validation tasks.
Position: Severo Ochoa PhD Position in Credible Data-driven Models group
Team leader: Pedro Díez
Functions: Complete a PhD in "Computational and Mathematical Modeling" at UPC. The candidate is expected to complete the PhD thesis in a maximum of three years. Collaborate with various research groups at CIMNE and around the world. Publish a minimum of two publications in JCR newspapers during the PhD period.
Project: "Bayesian - Reduced-Order inversion scheme for nonlinear problems with applications to lithospheric structure"
The idea of the project is to solve an inverse problem regarding the lithospheric structure parameters. To this end, a large number of results of the forward Stokes flow problem in a three-dimensional domain are required. Solving the problem at an affordable computational cost, the full order finite element method and reduced-order approaches are used. A smart implementation of the nonlinear rheological parameter description is aimed, for physical completeness, at both the full and reduced-order approaches.
