In particular, you will improve and validate physical models for high-fidelity numerical simulation, for the first time including all relevant EM-plasma interactions, thermochemical non-equilibrium and radiation effects for both Earth and Mars atmospheres. This position provides you an unique opportunity to work on advanced MHD technologies which can introduce a paradigm shift in aerospace science and technology by turning active magnetic shielding into reality and, potentially, into the spotlight not just for space travel but also for future hypersonic transportation systems.<\/p>\n<p>At the core of this work will be developing physical and computational models to predict surface heat fluxes and electron density distribution for the mitigation of radio blackouts during a planetary entry (Mars, Earth). Models shall be validated against the experimental data measured in VKI and University of Stuttgart.<br \/>\nAs well as carrying our research to the highest standards, the successful applicant will be expected to work as part of a multidisciplinary team and to prepare reports and presentations for project meetings and publications for international journals.<\/p><div class=\"kdpkb6780390607516\" ><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5811055133939296\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"8669520966\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\nmargin: 5px; padding: 0px;\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.kdpkb6780390607516 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<p><strong>The successful <\/strong><br \/>\napplicant will have a PhD or equivalent professional qualifications and experience in numerical simulation relating to hypersonic flows or plasmas.
