The Future Energy Center (FEC) is looking for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics.

The announced position is a unique chance to join one of Sweden's most active research environments with over 30 senior researchers and doctoral candidates.

Position description
This is a strategic recruitment connected to research activities on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), conducted at MDH with financing by ABB and KKS. The aim of this position is to leverage our existing research experience on the topic to the next level and develop the area and associated research competence at MDH in the long term. The successful candidate is therefore expected to be able to independently lead this research area at MDH after 3 years. We are part of a larger consortium developing an open-source SPH code with the purpose of using it to understand better energy-intensive processes and optimize their control and performance. The position involves working in cooperation with ABB as well as several other partner organizations. The successful candidate is therefore expected to interact effectively with partner research institutes, industry, colleagues and other stakeholders and build long-term collaboration networks.

You are expected to contribute within the existing research team through:

• Active engagement in research, developing a distinct line of research on SPH through new independent research projects.
• Actively contributing to education on all levels.
• Supervising masters and doctoral students.
• Applying for suitable external research funding.
• Participating in joint departmental and university-wide undertakings.
• Participating in international collaborations on a high scientific level.
• Collaborating with research groups within and outside of MDH.

As stated above the position is meritorious for future employment at MDH. It shall include teaching at second cycle level both within your core competence and on a more general level, as well as administrative and management duties (up to 20-30%). The position is advertised as a temporary employment of 3 years with the possibility of establishing a permanent position.

Qualifications
The applicant is required to have a PhD degree in a relevant field such as Mechanical Engineering, Energy Engineering, or Aerospace Engineering.

To qualify for the appointment as a postdoctoral research fellow, you should have received a PhD within 2010-2017 and shown research and pedagogical skills within the subject area. Further reference is made to the Higher Education Ordinance section 4 and Appointments Procedure for teachers at Mälardalen University.

The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English.

Assessment criteria
In general terms the assessment criteria shall be based on the ability to cooperate as well as the ability and suitability otherwise required to fulfil the duties well.

The same attention shall be paid to the assessment of teaching skills as to the assessment of academic skills.

Decisive importance is attached to personal suitability. We value the qualities that an even distribution of age and gender, as well as ethnic and cultural diversity, can contribute to the organisation.

The school will select the most suitable candidate for this position following a combined evaluation of competence and skills, in addition to documented qualifications. Decisive importance is attached to personal suitability. Personal suitability will be judged in relation to the candidate's capacity to effectively carry out the research work in this area, to integrate and contribute to a positive development of the research environment at MDH, as well as deliver value to the our partner organizations.
