CBE Seminar: “Lipid-like Materials for RNA Delivery: A How-to Guide for Hacking Gene Expression”
PICS Seminar: “Topology, Geometry, and Fracture in Networked Materials: A Tale of Scales”
/
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
The skeleton of many natural and artificial structures may be abstracted as networks of nonlinearly interacting elements. Examples include rubber, gels, soft tissues, and lattice materials. Understanding the multiscale nature of deformation and failure of networked structures hold key for uncovering origins of fragility in many complex systems including biological tissues and enables designing novel […]

MEAM Seminar: “Data-driven Discovery of Governing Physical Laws in Engineering, Physics, and Biology”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
A major challenge in the study of dynamical systems is that of model discovery: turning data into models that are not just predictive, but provide insight into the nature of the underlying dynamical system that generated the data. This problem is made more difficult by the fact that many systems of interest exhibit parametric dependencies […]
ESE Seminar: “Connecting Bits to the Physical World”
/
Room 337, Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Analog, RF and power integrated circuits are the key connectors between the physical world and the digital or cyber world. In this talk I will give my perspective on broader research trends in analog integrated circuit design research and illustrate several of these trends with results from my research group. The analog circuit design discipline […]

/
Greenberg Lounge (Room 114), Skirkanich Hall
210 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. David Issadore are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Venkata "Ravi" Yelleswarapu. The public is welcome to attend.
PICS Seminar: “Impact of Non-Native Structures in Ionic Liquid-Ionic Liquid Mixtures on Phase Equilibria Properties of Gases”
/
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Ionic liquids are substances that are composed entirely of ions. Negligible vapor pressures and the availability of a large number of cations and anions to tune physicochemical and biological properties for a given chemical process have been the primary drivers for research in this field over the last two decades. Majority of these investigations have […]
MEAM Seminar: “Fault-Tolerant Control on VTOL Aircraft”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
High-speed rotorcraft such as coaxial compound helicopters have a significant degree of control redundancy that can be exploited to minimize power requirement, noise, and vibration, in various flight conditions. This lecture focuses on a new idea – how control redundancy can be leveraged to compensate for control actuation failure. Both adaptive as well as robust […]

ESE & GRASP Seminar: “Efficient Computing for AI and Robotics”
/
Room 337, Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Computing near the sensor is preferred over the cloud due to privacy and/or latency concerns for a wide range of applications including robotics/drones, self-driving cars, smart Internet of Things, and portable/wearable electronics. However, at the sensor there are often stringent constraints on energy consumption and cost in addition to the throughput and accuracy requirements of […]
