HIRING! Research position on Efficient numerical solution of multiphysics problems in biomedicine.

The SISSA dealii-X group is led by A. Cangiani and includes P. Africa and G. Rozza. The group is renowed for the development of polytopic FEMs and reduced order modelling and is involved in the modelling of the cardiovascular system. The postdoc will contribute to the efficient implementation of these powerful and flexible methods within the deal.II library for the solution of multiphysics problems in complex domains. Tasks include:

• integration polytopic methods within the dealii-X meshing for exascale tools;
• exploitation general mesh methods as coarse solvers for complex multiscale problems.
