Applications are invited for the post of Research Associate to work with Professor A. P. Dowling and Professor K. Glover on a fundamental study of the control of combustion instabilities. Currently, the performance of aeroengines and power stations is limited by the onset of these instabilities. The Research Associate will apply advanced robust control theory both to a model of nonlinear flame oscillation and to an experiment. The work is funded by EPSRC and the European Community. It is expected that the person appointed should have, or expect to have, a PhD Degree in model-based robust control.
Salary is on the Research Associate scale up to a maximum of £21,016 a year. The appointment will be for a period of up to eighteen months. Applications in the form of a curriculum vitae, including the names and addresses of two referees, should be sent to Professor A. P. Dowling, Department of Engineering, Trumpington Street, Cambridge, CB2 1PZ, by 17 June 1999. Further information can be obtained either from Professor Dowling (e-mail apd1@eng.cam.ac.uk, tel. 01223 332739) or from Professor Glover (e-mail kg@eng.cam.ac.uk, tel. 01223 332752).
