Hi, I’m John Steuben!

I’m a material scientist, mechanical engineer, and robotics designer. My work spans a wide range of topics, from theoretical development, through computational models and physical experiments, all the way to practical hardware and software deployment. I’m currently plying my trade at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, in Washington DC. An overview of my research work can be found here.

Outside of work, I’m an avid cyclist, a lover of the outdoors, and a practitioner of the mechanical arts. A blog of my adventures in these pursuits can be found here.

If you’d like to know more about any of my work, or would like a PDF of any of my papers, please contact me!
