Postdoctoral Research Associate – Hydraulic Engineering Research Unit 0057 : Stillwater, OK, United States

A Postdoctoral Research Associate opportunity is available with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Hydraulic Engineering Research Unit (HERU) in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The selected applicant will develop basic and applied knowledge for the analysis and design of water conservation structures and channels for the control, conveyance, storage, and measurement of runoff waters. In collaborative research, quantify the processes associated with embankment breach such that timing, rate, and geometry of breach may be predicted, develop predictive tools for use in evaluating the performance of earthen embankment and related structures subjected to hydraulic attack in excess of design condition, and/or develop criteria for engineering measures to protect or stabilize disturbed materials and sediment.

Participation with the HERU will offer opportunities to network and collaborate with an outstanding group of researchers, scientists, and students. The HERU is a premier research facility where water for research is primarily supplied from an adjacent lake through a water delivery system that provides gravity flow to both indoor and outdoor model facilities at a relatively low cost. One indoor facility provides a recirculating system.

The appointment is full time for one year and may be renewed upon the recommendation ofARS and the availability of funding. The annual stipend rate will be commensurate with education level and experience. A stipend supplement is also provided to offset the cost of an individual or family health insurance plan. The participant must show proof of health and medical insurance. Health insurance may be obtained through ORAU/ORISE. Relocation reimbursement is provided. The participant does not become an employee of ARSor ORISE.

While participants will not enter into an employment relationship with ARS, this position requires a pre-employment check and full background investigation.

This opportunity is available to U.S. citizens, Lawful Permanent Residents (LPR), and foreign nationals.

This is an equal opportunity program open to all qualified individuals without regard to race, color, age, sex, religion, national origin, mental or physical disability, generic information, sexual orientation, or covered veteran’s status.

Qualifications:

To be eligible, applicants must have received a doctorate degree in Biological, Agricultural, Civil, or Hydraulic Engineering or another closely related field, with an emphasis in Geotechnical Engineering, Water Resources, and/or Computational Modeling within five years of the desired starting date. Knowledge or experience in Geotechnical Engineering, Physical Modeling, and/or Computational Modeling oriented toward problems concerning erosion of cohesive materials and/or failure of vegetation as it applies to hydraulic structures, channels, spillways, embankment, and flood conditions.

Preferred skills include:
■ Skilled in techniques used in modern hydraulic laboratory research and with field-data acquisition instrumentation and measuring practices
■ In-depth knowledge of one or more of the following areas: experimental and computational hydraulics, fluid mechanics, erosion mechanics and theory, and geotechnical engineering.
■ Professional knowledge of sediment transport theory, river mechanics, soil science, hydrology, and statistics
■ Working knowledge of data processing and geology
■ Knowledge and familiarity with computer modeling tools
■ Ability to execute standard software applications
■ Demonstrated ability to publish in peer-reviewed journals

How to Apply:

A complete application consists of:
■ A complete application
■ Official academic transcript(s) – scanned copies are acceptable
■ A current resume/CV
