Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Floating Offshore Wind University of Oxford - Department of Engineering Science Oxford, England, United Kingdom This full-time fixed-term research position invites a motivated early-career researcher to join the Environmental Fluid Mechanics Group at the University of Oxford's Department of Engineering Science. Funded by the Supergen Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Hub, the role focuses on the fluid dynamics of floating offshore wind - a leading edge of renewable energy research that blends numerical modelling, data-driven methods and experimental approaches to tackle real-world challenges in sustainable power generation. The post is initially for one year with the potential for extension and offers the opportunity to contribute to next-generation hybrid testing methodologies that advance understanding of turbine performance under realistic wind and wave conditions. General Description As part of the research project on floating offshore wind energy, you will engage in high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of floating wind turbines modelled via actuator-line methods. Your work will assess the applicability and limitations of reduced-order models for turbine performance prediction and support the development of machine-learning surrogate models capable of reproducing aerodynamic loads in real time for use in physical experiments. This blend of theory, numerical simulation and data-centric modelling aims to drive innovation in hybrid testing and deepen scientific understanding of how floating turbines behave in complex environmental conditions. Eligibility Criteria Applicants should hold a PhD (or be close to completion) in engineering, fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, applied physics or a closely related discipline. A strong record of research achievement, as demonstrated through publications or equivalent outputs, is expected. Required Expertise, Skills A solid background in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind turbine fluid mechanics is essential, with the ability to interpret and model the aerodynamics of wind energy systems and floating body dynamics. Experience with data-driven modelling techniques and high-performance computing will support contributions to surrogate model development.
