Research theme area:
Fluid Mechanics, advanced image analysis, noise removal, pressure field reconstruction, and particle image velocimetry.

Abstract:
The candidate will collaborate with researchers from the FAPESP-Shell Research Centre for Greenhouse Gas Innovation of POLI-USP at the University of São Paulo. Summary of the program and projects can be found at the RCGI website (https://sites.usp.br/rcgi/).
The selected candidate will employ machine learning and other techniques based on the NavierStokes equations to perform flow analysis with a focus on noise removal and pressure field reconstruction. The candidate is expected to work with experimental and numerical data, especially from electrolyzer and fuel cell flows.

Description:
The applicant will contribute in line with the main objectives of the project:

Work with flows obtained by computational fluid dynamics simulation, synthetic images or experimentally. Use and/or develop computational algorithms (filters and/or neural networks) to remove noise from flow images. Develop computational algorithms

In-depth analysis

May 20, 2025

Colorado State University’s hurricane forecast estimates the 2025 hurricane season will exceed the 1991–2020 average, with an estimate of 17 named storms, compared with a historical average of 14 storms. Meteorologists expect 13–18 named storms, including 3–6 storms with direct impacts on the United States, during this year’s Atlantic hurricane season, according to reports from AccuWeather in April.

The potential for a stronger hurricane season suggests heightened risk for weather-related production outages in the U.S. oil industry, including potential refinery outages along the U.S. Gulf Coast. Last year, five hurricanes made landfall in the United States, shutting in some upstream crude oil and natural gas production temporarily and disrupting petroleum product supply chains in Florida.
