This fellowship opportunity is offered by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) under the NRC Research Associateship Programs. It supports postdoctoral research in nonlinear dynamical systems with broad applications across physical sciences, mathematics, engineering, and biology. Research areas include nonlinear detectors, arrays of coupled oscillators, control and tracking of nonlinear systems, and sensor design. Current projects involve modeling and control of complex nonlinear mechanical structures, reaction-diffusion systems, fluid turbulence, and biological and chemical sensor development.
The research is conducted in collaboration with other NRL divisions such as the Center for Bio-Molecular Science and Engineering and Information Technology, as well as with academic institutions.
