MS0098: Internship - Control and Estimation for Large-Scale Thermofluid Systems
MERL is seeking a motivated graduate student to research methods for state and parameter estimation and optimization of large-scale systems for process applications. Representative applications include large vapor-compression cycles and other multiphysical systems for energy conversion that couple thermodynamic, fluid, and electrical domains. The ideal candidate would have a solid background in control and estimation, numerical methods, and optimization; strong programming skills and experience with Julia/Python/Matlab are also expected. Knowledge of the fundamental physics of thermofluid flows (e.g., thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics), nonlinear dynamics, or equation-oriented languages (Modelica, gPROMS) is a plus. The expected duration of this internship is 3 months.

EA0151: Internship - Physics-informed machine learning
MERL is looking for a self-motivated intern to work on physics-informed machine learning with application to electric machine condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. The ideal candidate would be a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering or computer science with solid research background in electric machines, signal processing, and machine learning. Proficiency in Python and Matlab is required. The intern is expected to collaborate with MERL researchers to build machine learning model for multi-modal data analysis, prepare technical reports, and draft manuscripts for scientific publications. The total duration is anticipated to be 3-6 months. The start date is flexible. This internship requires work that can only be done at MERL.
