Postdoctoral Fellow

Job Description

About the opportunity:

Mahindra University in collaboration with Virginia Tech have jointly launched an Interdisciplinary Advanced Research Center for Transformative Technologies (I2T2) at Mahindra University, Hyderabad campus.

Project 1:

Research topic: Physics Informed ML RVDS-LSUM Scheme for analysis and design of complex Aerospace configurations

Position: Postdoctoral Fellow (PDF)

Duration: 2 years (Initial appointment for 1 year, extendable based on performance)

Project Guide: Prof. Arya Kumar Bhattacharya

Job Description:

- To advance the LSKUM-RVDS-ELM methodology to the design and optimization of complex Aerospace configurations using the inviscid Euler equations for transonic regimes.
- This methodology belongs to the domain of Physics-Informed Machine Learning, here LSKUM denotes Least Square Kinetic Upwind Method (refer works of SM Deshpande et al), and preliminary description of RVDS (Residual Variation Diminishing Scheme) and ELM (Extreme Learning Machine) may be found at 10.1109/ACCESS.2024.3457670 .
- Further extension of the methodology to low supersonic speeds and also RANS approaches are envisaged.
- The candidate should have completed Doctoral work in the area of CFD, have some appreciation of AI / ML including optimization techniques, and have good software development skills.
- Should have orientation to work in a team and a fair record of quality published work.
