Internships @GeoMod in 2021 in Lausanne: probabilistic methods or app development a distancia, residencia en América del Sur

Internship: Development of standalone smartphone apps for coputational geomechanics

Duration: 4 to 6 month, fulltime, in 2021

Motivation: Smartphone applications are fashion. The idea is to investigate to which extent such applications can complement the toolbox of computational methods developed on laptops, for geotechnical applications.

Project: The proposed project lies at the intersection of software development and computational methods. Based on the work of earlier trainees the present project will concentrate on the development of a smartphone application. The trainee will be asked to develop a pilot smartphone application, given the corresponding laptop application. More specifically the work will consist in: assimilating the work already done on the development of standalone applications dedicated to the solution of a single type of geotechnical problem, developing a generic API for Android smartphones, activating either cloud or laptop computations

Documentation: ZSOIL

Prerequisites: - Good expertise in Python, background in computational methods and cloud computing. Strong interest in the subject. MS student in computational mechanics or equivalent.
