Job Description

The Postdoctoral Appointee will be part of an R&D group developing multiphysics modeling tools with applications to nuclear fuel recycling, critical materials recovery and purification, and nuclear nonproliferation.

With guidance, the appointee will:

  • Develop advanced multiscale, multiphysics simulation tools relevant to the modeling of processes involving combined nuclear, chemical, and electrochemical phenomena

  • Create new reduced-order models and submodels related to fluid flow, heat transfer, thermochemistry, and electrochemistry in reactive systems

  • Use modeling tools such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to develop and optimize new processes and equipment designs using high-performance computing

  • Develop process- and facility-scale models as the foundation for digital twins of chemical processing facilities with relevance to critical materials and nuclear reprocessing

  • Analyze data, prepare manuscripts...
