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 […]
Abstract: Heterogeneous catalysis is of central importance to the global economy today, facilitating the conversion of raw materials into valuable fuels and chemicals, and the abatement of chemical pollutants in […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
This professional development workshop series is designed to provide Penn Engineering graduate students and postdocs with a richer understanding of what it is like to pursue a career in academia […]
Abstract: Computational modeling is an important tool to aid chemical process development. Theoretical and data-driven models can be applied both for the optimization of specific processes, and for the initial […]
On the eve of the Intergovermental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report, I will present a brief overview of how climate science has evolved since the publication of […]
Abstract Photons play a central role in many areas of quantum information science, either as qubit themselves or to mediate interactions between long-lived matter based qubits. Techniques for (1) high-fidelity […]
Abstract: Current hardware and operating system abstractions were conceived at a time when we had minimal security threats, scarce compute and memory resources, and limited numbers of users. These assumptions […]
Abstract: As a global society, we have been burning fossil fuels to meet our energy and transportation needs since the start of the industrial revolution. This has resulted in atmospheric […]
