Job Description
The Center for Smart Engineering Materials (CSEM) New York University Abu Dhabiseeks to recruit a postdoctoral associate to work on the development characterization and applications of novel self sensing concrete with a dual capability of self healing through the integration of smart technologies.
The successful applicant will work on four main areas leading to the success of this fascinating project:
- To design and assess the performance of selfsensing cementitious materials endowed with high sensitivity resistance to temperature and durability under the highly basic environment of concrete.
- To develop structuralhealthmonitoring networks specifically directed toward the oil and gas industry.
- To develop novel selfhealing cementitious materials through chemical and/or biomineralization.
- To synthesize the findings to formulate and assess the performance of selfsensing and selfhealing cementitious composites.
- The candidate will work in a multidisciplinary environment consisting of Research scientists graduate students and undergraduate students.
Applicants should have experience in developing and characterizing sensors structural health monitoring systems and selfhealing construction materials. Proficiency in characterizing construction materials conducting electrical resistivity measurements and performing advanced data analysis and signal processing (e.g. using Matlab or Python) is required.
Experience with largescale concrete testing modeling and simulation (e.g. COMSOL Abaqus) is a plus. Familiarity with AC impedance spectroscopy electromechanical impedance wave propagation and vibroacoustics will be beneficial for this project.
Applicants should have an undergraduate degree and Ph.D. in Civil Engineering Materials Science or closely related fields. Candidates with outstanding interpersonal and communications skills problemsolving and decisionmaking abilities are preferred.
The terms of employment are very competitive and include housing and educational subsidies for children. Applications will be accepted immediately and candidates will be considered until the position is filled. To be considered all applicants must submit a cover letter curriculum vitae transcript of degree a onepage summary of research accomplishments and interests and at least 3 letters of recommendation all in PDF format.
If you have any questions please email Dr. Kemal Celik at.
