We are recruiting a Research Assistant to contribute to advanced aerodynamic simulation within the EPSRC programme grant REMODEL, focused on enabling high-fidelity, industrial-scale CFD workflows. Based at Swansea University, you will work on the analysis of flows over complex geometries, with particular emphasis on accurate boundary layer resolution, multi-scale features, and high-speed regimes relevant to real-world applications. The role will involve applying CFD methodologies to challenging problems, generating and analysing high-quality simulations for realistic engineering configurations. A central focus will be on achieving robust boundary layer representation using structured and hybrid meshing approaches with geometry-aware refinement. You will contribute to the development and enhancement of an existing high-performance mesh generation framework, versions of which are used in industrial environments, including Airbus Defence and Space and HPC Singapore. This will involve designing and implementing new capabilities for unstructured and hybrid mesh generation, boundary layer construction, and geometry-conforming discretisations. A significant proportion of the work will involve developing and extending meshing software, with a strong emphasis on robustness, scalability, and performance for HPC applications. You will collaborate closely with partners across the REMODEL consortium to ensure interoperability with solver technologies and integration into scalable HPC workflows. The role also includes contributing to peer-reviewed publications and supporting the translation of research developments into practical simulation capability. At Swansea, you will join a technically focused and research-active group with strengths in CFD, meshing, and high-performance computing. You will have access to modern HPC resources, established development practices, and opportunities to contribute to software used across multiple institutions. Applicants should demonstrate experience in parallel programming (MPI/OpenMP), alongside strong Fortran or C++ engineering skills. Prior exposure to mesh generation, adaptivity, or computational geometry would be advantageous. Experience with computational fluid dynamics, particularly in aerodynamic applications, is beneficial. See the job description for further details.
