Two three-year Postdoctoral Research Officer/Fellow posts Boundary Integral Equation Methods for High Frequency Scattering Problems Department of Mathematics/Mathematical Sciences

Universities of Bath and Reading

Supported by a recent UK EPSRC research grant, the Universities of Bath and Reading invite applications for two 3-year postdoc posts, to form a collaborative team together with investigators Prof Ivan Graham and Prof Valery Smyshlyaev (Bath), Prof Simon Chandler-Wilde and Dr Steve Langdon (Reading), several international visitors and four industrial/research bodies.

The successful applicants should have (or be close to completing) a PhD in mathematics (or equivalent), ideally in numerical analysis, and preferably have significant experience of programming and implementation of numerical methods. The ideal candidates would also have experience of some combination of: boundary integral equation methods, wave scattering/propagation problems and asymptotic analysis/methods. The posts are available from 1st October 2008 and should be filled by 31st March 2009.
