Numerical Investigation of Liquid Metal Magneto-Coriolis-Centrifugal Convection

This PhD project will focus on the modelling of electro-magnetic effects, in particular, clarify the possible role of Alfvén waves in planetary core convection.

Anelastic Coriolis-Centrifugal Convection: A More Realistic Local Model for Planetary Interior Processes

PhD position in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics within the project MAGNADO - The Magnetohydrodynamics of Liquid Metal Tornadoes.

Stability and transition in compressible shear flows

Coventry University (CU) is inviting applications from suitably-qualified graduates for a fully-funded PhD studentship

Nonequilibrium two-phase flow in disordered media: Memory, hysteresis and energy dissipation

This interdisciplinary project aims to resolve this knowledge gap. To that end, we will develop state-of-the-art computational and experimental methods, in close collaboration with prof. with M. Dentz (IDAEA-CSIC) and J. Ortin (Uni. of Barcelona), including short stays in their laboratories in Barcelona. The project also aims to use the insights gained from the small-scale investigation towards reservoir simulations of carbon geosequestration, in collaboration with the British Geological Survey.

Correlation ensembles in complex networks

Coventry University (CU) is inviting applications from suitably-qualified graduates for a fully-funded PhD studentship  

Non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq Effects in the Ultimate State of Rapidly Rotating Rayleigh-Bénard Convection

This PhD project tackles one of the key processes that drive the dynamics of planetary atmospheres and interiors: turbulent convection.
