    • MEAM Seminar: “Liquid Crystal Elastomers”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Liquid crystal elastomers are rubbery solids with liquid crystal mesogens incorporated into their main chains. They display an isotropic to nematic phase transformation accompanied by a large spontaneous deformation. This […]

    • MEAM Seminar: “Microdevices Enabled by Rarefied Flows”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    In this talk we will review emerging applications of rarefied gas dynamics for microscale sensing, actuation and power generation. Performance of conventional fluidic devices such as pumps, combustors and heat […]

    MSE Faculty Candidate Seminar: “Unsupervised Learning of Dislocation Motion”

    /
    Auditorium, LRSM Building 3231 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    High-performance designs that utilize metallic alloys are driving a need to quantify deformation in-situ at the finest length scales in order to reduce weight, increase operating temperatures, and improve fatigue […]

    MSE Faculty Candidate Seminar: “Atomically Thin Films and Superlattices”

    /
    Auditorium, LRSM Building 3231 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Thin film materials and heterostructures play a key role in modern technology including electronics and photonics. Atomically precise engineering of thin film materials enables unprecedented control of their structure and […]

    BE Seminar: “Immunomodulatory Biomaterials for Limb Salvage”

    /
    Room 337, Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Diabetes and peripheral arterial disease affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Patients with these conditions frequently develop chronic wounds on the lower limbs that lead to amputation, with a […]

    ESE & CIS Seminar: “Toward Power-Efficient Computing with Applied Inference”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Abstract: We require computers that extract value from exponential data growth even as exponential transistor scaling falters. With limited scaling, power and thermal density threaten performance. Architects must pursue power […]
