PhD-Position (m/f/x) at ICAMS, Ruhr-University Bochum: Lattice-Boltzmann-based simulations of reactive flows through particle beds
The Complex Fluids Group at ICAMS, Ruhr University Bochum, investigates structure–property relationships in soft matter systems such as polymers, colloids, and suspensions, combining theoretical modeling with large-scale molecular simulations. Its research focuses on flow behavior, phase transitions, and non-equilibrium phenomena, with particular relevance to advanced materials design and processing. The group also has strong expertise in lattice Boltzmann modeling combined with machine-learning-based approaches for simulating complex reactive fluid flows and hydrodynamic interactions across multiple length and time scales.
The Ruhr-Universität Bochum is one of Germany's leading research universities, addressing the whole range of academic disciplines. A highly dynamic setting enables researchers and students to work across the traditional boundaries of academic subjects and faculties. To create knowledge networks within and beyond the university is Ruhr-Universität Bochum's declared aim.
