Johns Hopkins University
Postdoctoral Fellow (PREP0003524)
Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, United States, 21276
Overview
PREP Research Associate This position is part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Professional Research Experience Program (PREP). NIST recognizes that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest and thus requires that such institutions be the recipients of a PREP award. The PREP program requires staff from a wide range of backgrounds to work on scientific research in many areas. Employees in this position will perform technical work that underpins the scientific research of the collaboration. Research Title:
Development of Acoustic-Based Standards for Gas Flow Metrology Team and Focus:
The NIST Fluid Metrology Group (FMG) seeks a motivated individual with a background in acoustics, physics, or engineering to join a multi-disciplinary team developing flow measurement techniques and calibration systems. The team is working to develop new flow standards and measurement capabilities based on acoustics, including a long-wavelength acoustic time-of-flight flowmeter and a density measurement technique based on resonant spectra of acoustic resonators. Responsibilities
Contribute to the design, construction, and testing of a flowmeter based on long-wavelength acoustics. Collaborate in the development of theoretical models of acoustic dissipation in a resonant cavity. Implement advanced signal analysis techniques on acoustic signals to reduce uncertainty and improve speed while determining fluid properties. Conduct research to implement novel approaches for measuring fluid flow and determining gas density based on acoustics and advanced signal processing. Present research findings, technological developments, and calibration results at internal meetings, external stakeholder meetings, and scientific conferences. Qualifications
A Ph.D. in engineering, physics, or related field. Experience conducting experimental research, particularly related to acoustics, fluid flow, signal analysis, or metrology. Ability to control, operate and automate scientific test equipment and instrumentation. Familiarity with design and simulation tools such as SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, MuMax, COMSOL, or similar. Familiarity with programming languages Python, MATLAB, or LabVIEW. Strong oral and written communication skills. Application Instructions
