PSOC@Penn Seminar: Sadjad Arzash & Ping Zhou
MEAM Seminar: “Bistable Robots: Leveraging Task Features for Actuator Reduction”
/
Moore 212
Actuator reduction is especially important for aerial robots, where minimizing mass and conserving power is critical. Bistable mechanisms have been used to augment actuators by speeding up actuation time or […]
Penn American Red Cross Blood Drive
/
Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall
3417 Spruce St, Philadelphia, PA, United States
There is currently a critical need for blood donors, and members of the Penn Engineering community are invited to participate in a school-wide blood drive. To join in this effort, […]

/
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
MEAM Seminar: “Mechanics- Informed Optimization for Enhanced Adhesion and Toughness”
/
Towne 337
Structural design optimization has long played a crucial role in engineering, often with the goal of creating stiff and lightweight structures for aerospace and other applications. However, optimizing structures against […]
ESE PhD Thesis Defense: “Software/Hardware Co-optimization for Computer Systems with 3D-stacking Memories”
/
Moore 317
200 S 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Emerging 3D memory technologies, such as the Hybrid Memory Cube (HMC) and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), provide high bandwidth and massive memory-level parallelism. With the growing heterogeneity and complexity of […]

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
MEAM Seminar: “Wall-modeled Large-eddy Simulation of Non-Equilibrium Turbulent Boundary Layers”
/
Room 337, Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Accurate prediction of high-Reynolds-number turbulent flows is essential for the understanding and flow control of many engineering applications such as aircraft, turbomachinery, and marine vehicles. Additionally, most practical flows exhibit […]

/
GRASP Treehouse - Pennovation Complex; LAB Building (Bldg 250 - Suite 250)
3401 Grays Ferry, Philadelphia, United States
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT In many applications of autonomy in robotics, guarantees that constraints are […]
MEAM Seminar: “Hierarchical Methods for Geometric Control of Underactuated, Free-Flying Robotic Systems”
/
Towne 337
Free-flying robotic systems (such as multibody aerial and space vehicles) evolve on high-dimensional non-Euclidean manifolds subject to nonlinear, underactuated dynamics. Because such systems can rely only on the severely limited […]
MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Exploiting Flows for Orienteering and Planning Problems”
/
Towne 337
Task and path planning algorithms for robots in the presence of flows confront a fundamental dichotomy between the continuous and the discrete: task planning algorithms discretize the world and their […]
