Job Record #18735
TitlePostDoc:Extreme hydrometeorological events in Morocco
CategoryJob in Academia
EmployerUniversity Mohammed VI Polytechnic
LocationMorroco, Benguerir
InternationalYes, international applications are welcome
Closure Date* None *
Description:
One of the major obstacles to Morocco’s development is the management of water 
resources. The country faces very severe hydroclimatic conditions, characterised 
by low precipitation with high inter-annual variability. Additionally, water can 
be highly variable from week to week. The weather often shifts from extreme dry 
conditions to sudden heavy rainfall episodes. Further, water demand is constantly 
increasing due to agricultural intensification, urbanisation, population increase 
and the development of tourism. This increase is very difficult to sustain under 
present conditions. As a result, Morocco is consistently confronted to water 
shortages.
In order to mitigate the negative impact of these events, a National Water 
Strategy was developed. It aims at improving water use through the construction of 
substantial additional infrastructure, like dams and inter-basins water transfer 
projects. While such projects may enhance water capture and withdrawal capacities, 
to do so, they must be combined with management tools to optimise their use. Water 
management in Morocco is still based on reactive rather than preventive policies. 
The last few years, during which many extreme events occurred, have shown how 
vulnerable this type of governance was to climatic hazards. Despite the rain, 
several dams in the kingdom dried up due to poor management. Furthermore, the risk 
for water resources related to the occurrence of climate and weather hazards 
remains little understood and improperly evaluated.
We propose here to improve on the current water management by better understanding 
and quantifying the risks related to drought and extreme rainfall. We still 
understand little about the probability, magnitude and extent of these events in 
Morocco. By definition, extreme events are rare; observations are also lacking in 
most areas in Morocco, and usually cover periods too short to yield a complete 
picture of the tail of the hydroclimatic parameters distribution. Finally, as the 
global climate is changing, stationarity is not a valid assumption anymore, and it 
becomes crucial to consider possible changes in extreme events characteristics 
over time to develop and implement effective risk management strategies.

Description:
Large eddy simulations of rotor/propeller aerodynamics and aeroacoustics

The Department of Aerodynamics, Energetics and Propulsion at ISAE-Supaero, 
Toulouse, France, is looking for a PhD candidate to work on the Large Eddy 
Simulation of rotor and propeller aerodynamics and aeroacoustics. In future 
concepts such as those recently described by Johnson \& Silva (NASA concept 
vehicles and the engineering of advanced air mobility aircraft. (2022) The 
Aeronautical Journal, 126(1295), 59-91), the aerodynamics and aeroacoustics is 
rendered complex partly because of interactions between multiple 
rotors/propellers and airframe. In order to properly capture those phenomena, 
high-fidelity numerical simulations of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations 
can be performed.

In this framework, it is proposed to :

> Perform large eddy simulations of relevant rotor/propeller - airframe 
configurations using an in-house code

> Assess results against experimental data obtained in an anechoic room and 
aeroacoustic wind tunnel (within a companion project)

> Analyse data using advanced post-processing tools, including spatial and 
temporal modal decompositions (e.g. SPOD, BMD), to unravel the flow physics that 
leads to enhanced or reduced aerodynamic performance and aeroacoustic footprints

The work thus includes meshing (ICEM and/or GMSH), high performance computing 
(on local and national clusters) and data processing (manipulating large 
datasets).  Advanced post-processing will be performed using in-house and/or 
available research codes (Python and/or Matlab) from the literature. In this 
regard, the candidate should have a good background in fluid mechanics and be 
familiar with programming languages. Knowledge in aeroacoustics and a first 
experience in computational fluid mechanics is a plus. Furthermore, the 
candidate should be highly rigorous and demonstrate ability to work both in 
autonomy and in close collaboration with other researchers.

The candidate will be hosted at ISAE-Supaero in Toulouse, France. The PhD 
program is fully funded by the French ministry of research for three years. It 
is supervised by R. Gojon and T. Jardin at the Département Aérodynamique, 
Energétique et Propulsion (DAEP), a laboratory comprising approximately 60 
people working on aerodynamics and propulsion for aeronautics and astronautics.

TitleDevelopment of models to simulate alkaline electrolysers
CategoryPostDoc Position
EmployerCEA
LocationFrance, Saclay
InternationalYes, international applications are welcome
Closure DateSunday, December 31, 2023
Description:
TotalEnergies aims to become a pioneer in the production of green H2, and thus a key player in the new 
hydrogen ecosystem. Green hydrogen is produced using an electrolyzer powered by a renewable energy 
source. The heart of an electrolyzer is an electrochemical cell consisting of a cathode and an anode 
separated by an ionically conductive membrane. Under polarization, water is dissociated into hydrogen at the 
cathode (HER reaction) and oxygen at the anode (OER), with the membrane ensuring that the gases do not 
mix. The cells are connected in series in the form of stacks with a power output of 1 to 10 MW for future 
industrial applications.
Two electrolyzer technologies are considered mature: alkaline and PEM (proton exchange membrane). In this 
context, the development of a digital twin of electrolyzers is essential to gain a competitive edge in terms of 
the design and operation of green H2 assets, as it will help us predict electrolyzer behavior.
To be successful, this digital electrolyzer model needs to encompass two different aspects:
Such a tool will also enable us to carry out predictive maintenance and optimize operations. It will also enable 
the emergence of new R&D topics to improve the performance of alkaline electrolyzers.
The DAWN project will be based on the use of two multiphase fluid simulation tools:
- canoP , a library for developing multiphase CFD applications with adaptive mesh refinement (Drui 2017,
