NoOffer Description The candidate will collaborate with researchers from the project AVENIR promoted by Total Energies at the Research Centre for Greenhouse Gas Innovation (RCGI), an Engineering Research Center (ERC) set jointly by the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) and Shell, and hosted by the University of São Paulo's Engineering School (POLI-USP).
Summary of the program and projects can be found at the RCGI website .The objective of the project AVENIR – Anisotropic ViscoElastic Seismic Imaging – is to build highly efficient, domain-specific language software tools to perform full waveform inversion (FWI) based on three-dimensional, tilted transverse isotropic (TTI) viscoelastic wave modeling.The applicant will be based at the School of Civil Engineering, Architecture and Urban Design (FECFAU) of the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in São Paulo state, Brazil, and shall contribute to the following main objectives of the project:Development of mesh generation and adaptation algorithms to produce optimized spatial discretization for finite element-based anisotropic elastic and viscoelastic wave propagation;Develop interface matching strategies to allow the coupling with acoustic solvers (and consequently save computing time in the propagation through the water layer).This project is suitable for a highly motivated candidate and requires programming skills and knowledge on numerical methods.
The candidate must have a PhD degree in engineering, computing, mathematics, physics, or geophysics.
Knowledge of English is required.
Experience in the development of large-scale numerical methods and high-performance computing is highly desired.This call offers one grant for this project.
