PhD Student (f/m/d) in Quantum Algorithms for Droplet and Bubble Oscillation Dynamics Modelling

With cutting-edge research in the fields of ENERGY, HEALTH and MATTER, around 1,500 employees from more than 70 nations at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) are committed to mastering the great challenges facing society today.

The Center for Advanced Systems Understanding (CASUS) is a German-Polish research center for data-intensive digital systems research. The Institute of Fluid Dynamics conducts both fundamental and applied research in the fields of thermo-fluid dynamics and magnetohydrodynamics to enhance the sustainability, the energy efficiency, and the safety of industrial processes.

In a joint effort of both institutes, the Department AI4Quantum – Machine Learning for Quantum Simulation and Computing and Thermal Energy and Process Engineering are looking for a PhD Student (f/m/d) in Quantum Algorithms for Droplet and Bubble Oscillation Dynamics Modelling.
