Jobbnorge ID: 170170

Job abstractJV_description

A permanent position as researcher in Porous Media Physics is available at PoreLab - Center of Excellence- at the Department of Physics.

The position is externally funded.

Starting date as soon as possible.

The theme of the researcher position will be "Experimental transient immiscible two-phase flow". The aim of the researcher project is to increase the understanding of how different forces both short range (e.g. capillary forces) and long range (e.g. viscous and gravitational forces) act in different flow regimes and to understand the specific scaling properties of the structures. The candidate will in the project investigate non-trivial fluid invasion mechanisms like corner and film flow which is of great importance for trapped fluid cluster both in steady state and transient immiscible two-phase flow.

The position is an excellent possibility for a young scientist to qualify for a tenured academic position. It is expected that the candidate actively pursues possibilities for new projects within the field, by participating/submitting applications to the EU, the Research Council of Norway and industry. The candidate will take part in supervision of students and also outreach activity connected to PoreLab.
