Dear Professor, Azarpeyvand,

I am writing to express my enthusiastic interest in the Research Associate position as advertised
on your university website. With a strong background in experimental aerodynamics and
aeroacoustics, along with a commitment to groundbreaking research, I am excited about the
prospect of contributing to your world-leading team at the University of Bristol.
Currently pursuing a postgraduate research degree in Mechanical Engineering at Melbourne
University, I have honed my skills in aerodynamics measurements and experimental research
techniques (PIV). My academic journey has equipped me with a profound understanding of
dynamic stall phenomena, making me well-suited to contribute meaningfully to your ongoing
research.
I am particularly drawn to the unique opportunity to work on pitching aerofoils using the state-
of-the-art facilities at the University of Bristol, including the National Aeroacoustic Facility and
the National Pressure Neutral Acoustic Wind Tunnel. The chance to collaborate with experts
from the University of Cambridge and Queen Mary University of London adds an additional
layer of excitement to this role.
In my previous role at the University of Queensland, I successfully conducted experimental
aerodynamic tests on the wake behavior behind the physical cylinders equipped with the fin and
foam. My experience in utilizing various flow measurement techniques, such as hotwire, PIV,
and remote sensing, aligns with the requirements of the role. Additionally, my proficiency in
programming with Matlab, combined with my ability to collaborate with cross-disciplinary
teams, positions me to contribute to the success of your project.
What excites me most about this opportunity is the chance to work on a fundamental yet
industrially important problem and collaborate with world-leading academics in the field. I am
eager to bring my skills, knowledge, and dedication to your esteemed team and contribute to the
publication of groundbreaking research in top journals.
Enclosed is my resume, which provides further details about my academic and professional
background. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experiences align with the
specific needs of your team during an interview. Thank you for considering my application.
I look forward to the possibility of contributing to the innovative research conducted at the
University of Bristol.
Here is the name and Email of my referees:
Prof. Ivan Marusic, imarusic@unimelb.edu.au
Prof. Kamel Hooman, K.Hooman@tudelft.nl
Dr. Pooyan Rahmanivahid, pooyan@gcet.edu.om
