Post-Doctoral Research Associate – Fusion Breeding Blanket Modeling
Please note this position will be working for the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, in partnership with Type One Energy
This position involves computational research to evaluate and design solid particle based fusion breeding blanket working in collaboration with Type One Energy. The researcher will have experience with computational multiscale materials modeling and irradiation effects or gas behavior in solids, and involve using the cluster dynamics code Xolotl to evaluate and optimize tritium generation and tritium extraction from the blanket particles.
This is a grant-funded position and is contingent upon the continued funding of the grant.
The post-doc will work within a diverse and energetic team in the development of these capabilities and interface with research scientists at Type One Energy, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, University of Tennessee-Oak Ridge Innovation Institute, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory as part of model benchmarking and experimental validation. Additional duties include technical interactions with graduate students, contributing to and developing new research initiatives, and writing technical reports and peer reviewed scientific journal articles.
