MEAM Seminar: “Wave Engineering: From Geometry to Fragility”
/
Zoom - Email MEAM for Link
peterlit@seas.upenn.edu
The elastic properties of materials are determined by a few material constants such as the Young’s modulus. Using super-structures one can effectively change these “constants”. In this way we obtain […]
CBE Seminar: “Phase Behavior and Self-Assembly of Active Colloids”
/
Zoom - Email CBE for link
Abstract In recent years, a new type of synthetic microparticle has captured the imagination of researchers across the physical and biological sciences. These so-called active colloids convert chemical or environmental […]
