Open Postdoc on computational methods and inverse problems

Submitted by Andrew J. Gross on Fri, 01/10/2025 - 18:03

uncertainty quantification

A Postdoctoral Fellow is sought to fill an immediate opening in the Gross Materials Lab at the University of South Carolina to work on a DARPA funded project. The postdoc will have the opportunity to attend regular meetings with DARPA and other DOD program managers. The research is focused on extracting yield surfaces from data rich full-field experimental information by solving an inverse problem.
