Abstract: Colloidal particles accumulate and organize at fluid interfaces via capillary interactions. We study pair interactions and structure formation around spherical particles with pinned contact lines. Particles attract to apparent […]
In the late 1940s, John von Neumann first introduced the concept of self-replication as a way of furthering cellular reproduction research. By the late ‘50s and ’60s this research diverges […]
Older adults are forming a much larger percentage of the population leading to a strain in the healthcare sector. It is expected that the population aged 65 and over in […]
Abstract: Several chemical processes involve the use of mutually immiscible molecules, for example a water-soluble catalyst is used in combination with oil-soluble reagents to produce water soluble products. There are […]
Abstract: Embryonic tissues and cancer have in common the fact that they are both highly proliferative tissues rapidly moving through the cell cycle, as opposed to most other differentiated tissues […]
Self-reconfigurable modular robots are composed of a small set of modules with uniform docking interfaces. Different from conventional robots that are custom-built and optimized for specific tasks, modular robots are […]
It has been twenty years since the advent of the first power-autonomous legged robots, yet they have still not yet been deployed at scale. One fundamental challenge in legged machines […]

The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Andrew Maidment are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Trevor Vent. Title: "Development and Evaluation of Next […]
Suspensions of non-Brownian particles in fluids are commonly found in nature (e.g. mud, soils, and debris flows) and in the industry (e.g. paints, food, and cosmetics). Understanding the relations between […]
Lightweight structures are the product of the science of making systems as light as possible with constraints, which often refer to being sufficiently strong and stiff. Although the development of […]
