General Description
Functional Recovery Design of Steel Structures
This position is part of the National Institute of Standards (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. NIST recognizes that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest, thus requires that such institutions must be the recipient 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.
A Senior Researcher is sought for a position in Structural Engineering to contribute to cutting-edge work on resilience-based seismic design of steel structures. This opportunity is part of a high-impact research effort focused on advancing the science of seismic design for damage control, post-earthquake performance, residual capacity, and repairability of steel buildings at both the component and system levels. The researcher will collaborate closely with leading experts at NIST and academia to accelerate the development of next-generation seismic design and post-earthquake evaluation procedures.
Key Responsibilities
Synthesize knowledge from past experimental tests and high-fidelity models of structural steel components. Develop new nonlinear finite element models to address key data gaps in steel component behavior. Translate findings into technical guidance that informs seismic design for damage control, post-earthquake assessment and decision-making for structural engineers. Conduct nonlinear dynamic analyses and consequence modeling across a suite of steel building archetypes to demonstrate the real-world application of the developed procedures.
Qualifications
Ph.D. in Civil Engineering with a focus on the behavior of steel structures Strong background in the behavior of structural steel components and nonlinear analysis of steel systems, with emphasis on seismic effects Experience with OpenSees and/or other high-fidelity finite element software; proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB Excellent written and oral communication skills Strong publication record in leading peer-reviewed journals

Vaccine Requirements
Johns Hopkins University strongly encourages, but no longer requires, at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The COVID-19 vaccine does not apply to positions located in the State of Florida. We still require all faculty, staff, and students to receive the seasonal flu vaccine. Exceptions to the COVID and flu vaccine requirements may be provided to individuals for religious beliefs or medical reasons. Requests for an exception must be submitted to the JHU vaccination registry.
This change does not apply to the School of Medicine (SOM). SOM hires must be fully vaccinated with an FDA COVID-19 vaccination and provide proof of vaccination status.
For additional information, applicants for SOM positions should visit https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/coronavirus/covid-19-vaccine/ and all other JHU applicants should visit https://covidinfo.jhu.edu/health-safety/covid-vaccination-information/.
The following additional provisions may apply, depending upon campus. Your recruiter will advise accordingly.
The pre-employment physical for positions in clinical areas, laboratories, working with research subjects, or involving community contact requires documentation of immune status against Rubella (German measles), Rubeola (Measles), Mumps, Varicella (chickenpox), Hepatitis B and documentation of having received the Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis) vaccination. This may include documentation of having two (2) MMR vaccines; two (2) Varicella vaccines; or antibody status to these diseases from laboratory testing. Blood tests for immunities to these diseases are ordinarily included in the pre-employment physical exam except for those employees who provide results of blood tests or immunization documentation from their own health care providers. Any vaccinations required for these diseases will be given at no cost in our Occupational Health office. Seniority level
