Applications are invited for a 12-month FAPESP-funded postdoctoral position at the University of São Paulo, São Carlos, Brazil. The project concerns the development of mathematical and computational methods for dredging planning in Brazilian rivers, coupling numerical optimization and computational fluid dynamics. Relevant topics include PDE-constrained and multiobjective optimization, adjoint methods, surrogate models, scientific computing, and CFD. Applicants should have a PhD in applied mathematics, computational science, engineering, operations research, or a related field. Candidates with strong expertise in either optimization or CFD are encouraged to apply. Candidates of all nationalities are eligible.
Application deadline: November 30, 2026.
