Singapore beBeeCoastalProtection Full time $90,000 - $120,000

We are seeking a Research Scientist to join our team in the field of Coastal Protection and Renewable Energy.

Job Description:

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and validating Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models to study wave attenuation by mangroves, seagrass, and coral. This involves calibrating simulations with experimental data, analyzing shear coefficients and drag forces, and contributing to interdisciplinary research on coastal protection.

The researcher will work closely with the project team to ensure all project deliverables are met. Responsibilities include conducting advanced stochastic analysis of wave environments, analyzing hydrodynamic behavior of floating breakwaters, performing CFD simulations, and developing finite element models.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Participate in and manage the research project to ensure all project deliverables are met.
  • Conduct advanced stochastic analysis of wave environments to evaluate the performance of floating structures.
  • Analyze hydrodynamic behavior of floating breakwaters under varied sea conditions.
  • Perform Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to optimize the design and performance of floating breakwaters.
  • Develop finite element models for stability assessment, structural integrity, and dynamic response of floating systems.
  • Design and analyze mechanical connectors for the integration of multi-purpose floating breakwater systems.
  • Develop innovative designs for floating breakwaters that integrate wave energy converters, tidal energy systems, and solar energy platforms.
  • Plan and conduct physical model tests in wave flumes or basins to validate computational models.
Required Skills and Qualifications:

To be successful in this role, you will need a PhD/Master's in Naval Architecture, Ocean Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related field. Proficiency in hydrodynamic modeling tools (e.g., ANSYS AQWA, OrcaFlex) and finite element analysis software (e.g., Abaqus, ANSYS) is essential. Experience with stability and mooring system design is also desirable.

You should have strong analytical skills, familiarity with data collection instruments and techniques, excellent communication and report-writing abilities, and good understanding of industry standard. Ability to work independently and in teams in both lab and field environments is required.

Benefits:

This role offers the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in Coastal Protection and Renewable Energy, working closely with a team of experienced researchers and engineers. You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, and opportunities for professional development and growth.
