Oliver Buxton

DTU Wind is advertising a PhD scholarship in Forcing and Nonlinear Interactions in Wind Turbine Wakes . The project focuses on turbulence , fluid mechanics , wind energy , and data-driven modeling , with the goal of extending an existing fast wake-aerodynamics framework to capture nonlinear triadic interactions in wind turbine wakes. The position is a strategic collaboration between DTU - Technical University of Denmark and Imperial College London , and will be co-supervised by Professor Oliver Buxton from Imperial College London. The post references prior work by Andersen & Murcia Leon (2022) and inspiration from Biswas & Buxton (2026), indicating a research direction at the intersection of wake aerodynamics, turbulence modeling, and computational/physics-informed methods. This is a PhD opening , not a postdoc or masters call. The post highlights candidates who are motivated by fundamental questions in turbulence and excited to develop next-generation models for wind turbine wakes. No explicit funding amount, tuition details, or waiver information is provided in the post. Application deadline: 2026-09-06. Interested applicants should use the provided DTU application portal link and review the full job description for complete requirements and submission instructions.
