Research Fellow, School of Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics, 
Ref. J23-1762.  

The School are seeking to appoint as soon as possible a Research Fellow for 
up to 6 months for an EPSRC funded project.  This project aims to 
construct, adapt and analyse some models for nanoscale dynamic processes 
in thin film phase-change alloys, appropriate to the next generation 
of optical data storage media.  Applicants should have a relevant PhD 
and be applied mathematicians or engineers with a sound mathematical 
and numerical modelling experience.  Applicants should preferably have 
experience in one or more of the following areas: phase-field models, 
phase-change alloys, spatially extended systems, and computational, 
analytical and/or asymptotic aspects of nonlinear partial differential 
equations.  Salary is in the range £20,044 pa - £24,352 pa depending 
on experience and qualifications.  Application packs are available from 
www.exeter.ac.uk/jobs; e-mail P.Ashwin@exeter.ac.uk; or telephone 
(01392) 263969, quoting reference number J23-1762.  The closing date 
for completed applications is 14 March 2006.
