Mid-Atlantic HERC

Dr. Tugce Basers group in the Department of Civil Engineering at Saint Louis University is seeking two highly motivated postdoctoral scholars to join their team. These positions offer an exciting opportunity to conduct innovative research focused on developing and modeling multiphysics solutions to complex problems in porous materials. Candidates with a background in experimental and/or numerical multiphysics modeling of porous media, applicable to both terrestrial and extraterrestrial environments, are encouraged to apply.

The successful candidate will be joining a team of theorists and experimentalists and will conduct research on thermally induced multiphysics behavior of porous materials with applications in permafrost and geothermal energy for resiliency and adaptive infrastructure under changing environmental conditions Collaboration with team members and the supervision and training of graduate students, as needed, are key aspects of the role.

Qualifications:

A Ph.D. in Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, Materials, or Applied Physics.

A track record demonstrated in one or more of the listed disciplines.

Proven expertise in multiphysics modeling (thermal, chemical, mechanical, hydraulic, and wave propagation processes).

Proficiency in advanced programming and simulation tools such as MATLAB, LabVIEW, COMSOL, TOUGH, or ANSYS is highly desirable.

Strong interpersonal communication and teamwork abilities.

Capacity to work independently while effectively contributing to a collaborative team environment.

About Saint Louis University

Saint Louis University(SLU) is a private, co-educational Jesuit university located in St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Founded in 1818 by the Most Reverend Louis Guillaume Valentin Dubourg SLU is the oldest university west of the Mississippi River. The University has campuses in St. Louis, Mo. and Madrid, Spain. SLU values academic excellence, life-changing research, compassionate health care, and a strong commitment to faith and service. For nearly 200 years, the University has gone beyond teaching facts and figures, encouraging students to form ideas and identities. Today, SLU students are nearly 14,000 strong. The University has invested vast resources to advance academic programs and enhance the student experience. SLU also is a major research institution where premier researchers tackle local and global challenges. And the University's commitment to community service has earned it national acclaim and bolstered its status as a character-building college.
