Research Fellow - Offshore Geotechnics

Develop a whole-life geotechnical design framework for offshore anchoring systems in the Centre of Excellence for Intelligent & Resilient Ocean Engineering. Generate and interpret finite-element datasets, derive a lumped-element macro model, and implement an accessible stand-alone calculation tool. The research forms part of the Royal Academy of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies. The appointment is for 24 months, with potential extension to 36 months.

PhD or equivalent professional qualification in geotechnical engineering; strong numerical, computational and coding skills. Interests in offshore renewable energy and seabed sediments are desirable.
