Seeking a Postdoc Position in Computational Mechanics and Machine Learning

Submitted by gjwang on

I am a postdoc in the department of mechanical and aerospace engineering at UCLA.  I got a bachelor's degree in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from Harbin Institute of Technology (ranking 1st in our major). I obtained my PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park.

Both my PhD and postdoc work are in integrating machine learning and physics-based simulations with application to granular flow and mobility of unmanned vehicle on soft terrain. I have extensive coding experience in MATLAB, C++, and PYTHON. Specifically, I developed physics-based computational frameworks to capture multi-physics/multiphase/multiscale phenomena. I then leveraged data driven modeling (machine learning, reduced order modeling, data assimilation) for fast prediction of the same. Orders of magnitude reduction in computational time are achieved with the data-driven modeling approach compared with physics-based simulations.

I am looking for another round of postdoc. I can start as soon as July or August this year. If you are interested, feel free to contact gjwang [at] ucla.edu (gjwang[at]ucla[dot]edu)

Attached please find my CV  and poster summary of my work.

Best,

Guanjin
