The main course will be given by Felix Otto and additional lectures presented by Scott Armstrong and Antoine Gloria. There will also be a limited number of short contributed talks. The school is intended mainly for PhD students and early stage researchers, but open for everyone. Registration is free, but participants are required to register in advance, for organizational purposes. Further information on the school and deadlines (partial financial support, submission of an abstract for the contributed talks) can be found on the web page of the winter school: http://www.math.uni-augsburg.de/de/prof/ana/Tagungen/Winter-School-Stochastic-Homogenization/ Looking forward to see you in Augsburg. Best regards, The organizers Lisa Beck, Dirk Blomker, Franco Flandoli and Marco Romito ------ Subject: University Academic Fellowship Position, Univ of Leeds From: Samantha Haynes Date: July 31, 2015 The University of Leeds biggest ever recruitment of academic researchers includes an exciting new opportunity to join the Institute of Applied Geoscience (IAG) in the School of Earth and Environment. The University of Leeds aim to recruit 250 University Academic Fellows by 2017 who have the potential to make a major contribution to the University's academic performance and standing. This scheme started last year and 76 outstanding individuals were appointed. These Academic Fellowships last for 5-years, and are then designed to convert to permanent positions as Associate Professor. Whether you are looking to establish your academic career as a new fellow or already hold an existing funded fellowship and wish to bring it to the University of Leeds we want to hear from you. Pore-Scale Modelling for Future Energy Solutions Modelling gas and fluid flow in porous media is central to the development of future energy technologies involving subsurface geological structures including: - Predicting and optimizing production from unconventional petroleum reservoirs; - Improving methods for enhanced oil recovery; - Assessment of radioactive waste disposal and CO2 storage sites; - Development of novel energy storage systems, for example, subsurface storage of hot water or compressed air, and (v) injection of waste material produced during oil-field decommissioning. With a PhD in Petroleum Engineering, Computational Fluid Dynamics or related subject, you will have a strong research record in fluid flow modelling at the pore-scale, the ability to teach at both Undergraduate and Postgraduate level, as well as a clear and compelling vision for personal academic development.
