Job Description
Missions
At the Futuroscope site of Institut Pprime the CNRS is recruiting a Researcher within the framework of the SALSA project (funded by the DGAC and coordinated by Airbus).
The successful candidate will collaborate with Airbus researchers and with the 2AT team at Institut Pprime to develop a shape-optimisation tool based on resolvent analysis, applied to landing-gear aeroacoustics
Activity
The researcher will develop a numerical methodology based on a resolvent formulation of the Boundary Element Method. He/she will apply this tool to perform the shape optimisation of a landing gear. He/she will then carry out the experimental validation of the optimised geometries in the anechoic wind tunnels of Institut PPRIME, using source localisation systems based on microphone arrays.
Your Profil
Skills
The researcher should have the following skills:
- demonstrate excellent teamwork and communication skills,
- be strongly motivated for high-impact applied research,
- a high degree of autonomy and creativity in problem-solving,
- openness to collaboration with industrial partners (Airbus) and have a strong interest in aerospace modelling projects.
The candidate must hold a PhD in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering or a related field.
The candidate must have a proven experience in numerical simulation in fluid mechanics and/or aeroacoustics, as well as strong skills in linear algebra and signal processing.
Your Work Environment
UPR 3346, Pprime Institute, is a CNRS unit under a specific agreement with the University of Poitiers and ISAE-ENSMA (partners).
It has around 600 staff: 200 EC, 40 researchers, 100 IT, 180 PhD students and 40 fixed-term contract staff. The research work will be carried out within the D2-FTC department, Fluids, Thermal and Combustion, which corresponds to a continuum ranging from fluid mechanics, inert, anisothermal and reactive fluids, to effects related to complementary physical properties of thermal, combustion and detonation.
