Project Title: Development of Advanced Finite Element Simulation Software for Electrical Machines

Scope of Research: This project relates to the development of an in-house finite element simulation package which is well suited to use with numerical optimizers. The aim is to further enhance the package with additional capabilities and to do research in advanced finite element methods. The postdoctoral candidate will have the opportunity to work on individual research as well as to work within a group (doctoral and masters level students).

Host: This postdoctoral research post is based in the Electrical Machines Laboratory of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Stellenbosch University.

Requirement: PhD (in related area)

• Previous experience in electrical machines design and analysis using finite element methods;
• Familiarity with finite element solvers and loss calculation models;
• Programming experience in Fortran, C or Python is a plus;
• Proficient in the English language.

Commencement of duties: As soon as possible

Closing date: 31 March 2015

Enquiries: Send a letter of application, accompanied by comprehensive curriculum vitae, including list of publications and the names and contact details of at least two referees, to Prof R-J Wang at rwang@sun.ac.za.

Applicants should request their referees to forward confidential reports by the closing date direct to the same address….
