Research Associate on Enabling CO2 storage using Artificial Intelligence - Edinburgh, United Kingdom - Heriot-Watt University Malaysia
Description
Salary: Grade 7 (£36,023 - £44,263)
Contract: Full-time (35 hours per week), Fixed Term for 14 months
The Lyell Centre at Heriot-Watt university (HWU), Edinburgh, Scotland has an opening for one PDRA position to work on the project ECO-AI (Enabling CO2 storage using Artificial Intelligence techniques). This post is funded through EPSRC. Further details about ECO-AI are available at the project webpage
Detailed Description
The successful candidate is expected to develop cutting edge deep learning models for storage site characterization to determine optimal CO2 injection and leakage risk assessment. Two aspects are of special interests: (a) Development of a framework for fast capacity estimation using AI-solver including geological uncertainties across scales, and (b) development of optimal CO2 injection and monitoring strategies using model-based reinforced learning algorithms.
In addition, the successful candidates will contribute to a wide range of AI applications in subsurface flow modelling including (a) stochastic generation of porous media realizations using deep generative models (b) deep learning based property prediction using various architectures (c) Deep learning based proxy modelling with physics based losses and built-in model constrains (e) Effective optimization techniques for physics constrained implicit neural models (f) Efficient coupling of deep learning models to numerical solvers for hybrid CO2 flow modelling. The developed machine learning techniques will be open-sourced and be validated across a wide range of applications and on experimental data and direct numerical simulations generated by the project team.
The successful candidates will be part of a large multidisciplinary research project on maximising CO2 storage in deep geological formations. The candidates will benefit from interactions with the project team across Heriot-Watt university and Imperial College London
Key Duties & Responsibilities
The successful candidate will be expected to undertake the following:
