The research domains of the Business Unit Water focus on water policy, surface and groundwater and modelling, urban water, sediment management, coastal zone management, water management systems and water related issues. Due to the increasing number of assignments, our Business Unit Water is seeking a engineer specialised in hydraulic modelling with TELEMAC

Your role:

• You will be part of a multi-disciplinary team working in Antwerp on hydraulic modelling projects with Telemac – software.

Your profile:

• University degree;
• Your mother tongue is English or Dutch (or you are very fluent in one or more of these languages), you have the willingness to learn Dutch in a short period;
• General knowledge of marine and coastal hydraulics is a must.
• You have at least three years experience with numerical models, of which at least 2 years with TELEMAC.
• A Ph.D. and/or peer reviewed publications in this field are an asset;
• You have the ambition to grow further as an expert in numerical modeling, data processing and interpretation of measurements and model results and become an internal expert in your field;
• You are technologically literate, an organizer and strive for quality and accuracy.
• You are eager to demonstrate your skills in a competitive environment and convince the client of the added value of Antea Group;
• You are willing to carry out a part of your work at a location other than our offices, either in Belgium (e.g. at the client's offices) or abroad (e.g. in the framework of an international project);
• In addition to the required technical skills we are looking for a team player. Our new employee will think and plan along with our integrated water assignments.

Our offer:

• We offer you an exciting technical function with extensive development opportunities and responsibilities in a thema-oriented and participatory company
• An eager and dynamic team awaits your input in the development of integrated water projects in both domestic and foreign markets
• Location: Antwerp , Belgium. Starting date : 2015, 1st of Jan.
• An intensive supervision by experienced colleagues.

VIE proposal for the groundwater code ESTEL

Details

Published on Wednesday, 31 July 2013 16:15

Development of numerical methods in the groundwater flows and pollutant transfer code ESTEL within the open-source framework openTELEMAC-MASCARET

 - EDF R&D / LNHE and STFC Daresbury.

Context

The openTELEMAC-MASCARET system is an integrated suite of modules used to simulate free-surface flows involving flooding, wetting and drying as well as discharge of pollutants and release of freshwater. It also includes the 3D code ESTEL, which is a groundwater model for contaminant transfer in variably saturated flows. ESTEL has mainly been applied to study nuclear waste disposal safety assessments. Possible future applications of ESTEL deal with hydrogeological studies for safety assessment of industrial facilities, coupling surface and subsurface or watershed influence analysis. However, for this purpose, numerical developments in ESTEL are required, especially for large scale modeling with accurate precision.

Closing date: 8th February 2013

1. Novel Wave Energy Converters
2. Modelling Coastal Hydrodynamics and Morphodynamics
3. Tsunami Overtopping and Loading on Coastal Defences

1. Wave energy is an abundant resource but cost effective conversion into electricity has remained elusive. EPSRC is funding the project ' Step-WEC: STEP change for Wave Energy Conversion through floating multi-body multi-mode systems in swell' as part of the Supergen Marine Challenge 2: Marine Energy Technology for 2050. Applicants are sought with capability in wave and floating body hydrodynamics. The project is theoretical and experimental. Familiarity with WAMIT will be an advantage. Start date 1st April 2013. Duration 1 year in first instance on 3 year project. Ref. EPS-02003

2. This project is part of the NERC consortium iCOASST (integrated coastal sediment systems) and involves large-scale long-term coastal hydrodynamics modelling on the UK continental shelf driving morphodynamic change. The TELEMAC suite will be employed for this purpose. Start date 1st April 2013. Duration 2 years. Ref. EPS-02103

3. This project is part of the NERC consortium grant 'Will climate change in the Arctic increase the landslide-tsunami risk to the UK?'. This work package is concerned with tsunami overtopping, inundation and loading on coastal defences. In-house codes will be used for overtopping and TELEMAC for inundation. Start date 1st October 2013. Duration 18 months. Ref. EPS-02102
