Postdoc positions available at the University of Wisconsin! The project is a DoD-funded computational and theoretical study: the idea is to integrate and extend ideas and tools from dynamical systems theory and machine learning for better understanding, prediction and control of complex chaotic dynamics in systems like wall turbulence. Here is a publication on the topic: https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.101.062209
To apply, send a CV and PDFs of publications to mdgraham@wisc.edu.
