We are looking for candidates to join the Utah Waves and Architected Materials Group . We have fully funded openings for undergrads, MS and PhD.
Applicants with track record / experience / expertise / strong passion in ANY ONE of the following technical fields are especially valued:
· - Finite element simulations
· - Vibrations and waves
· - Frontiers in condensed matter physics, including band structure, topological invariant, magic angle, multi-body topological order, spin-orbit coupling, etc.
· - Engineering applications of machine learning techniques
· - Quantum algorithms and their applications
Reserach work will be focused on computational studies using either commercial simulation platforms or open-source software packages. Tasks and responsibilities include data extraction, management and visualization as well.
Minimum requirements
Solid knowledge of numerical methods and linear algebra; AND
High proficiency in: either (1) any finite element software or (2) other numerical simulation techniques.
