A non-local (gradient) plasticity model for porous metals that accounts for deformation-induced anisotropy is presented. The model is based on the work of Ponte Castañeda and co-workers on porous materials […]
As 3D printing and other advanced manufacturing techniques have become more common, it is increasingly possible to produce structures with nearly arbitrary internal geometric and compositional features, opening up vast […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance via Zoom. ABSTRACT What will it take to develop robots that work with us in […]
Fluids confined in nanopores are ubiquitous in nature and technology. In recent years, the interest in confined fluids has grown, driven by research on unconventional hydrocarbon resources -- shale gas […]
Data compression is enjoying a renaissance fueled by an unprecedented growth in both the amount of data being generated and our reliance on powerful computation. At its heart is an […]
Aquatic modular self-reconfigurable robotic systems (MSRRs) have incredible potential for bringing practical, flexible, and adaptable robotic tools to challenging environments. They could build mobile ocean platforms or bridges for larger […]
This distinguished lecture will be a hybrid event held in the Glandt Forum (Singh Center) and via Zoom. A light reception will follow the live lecture. Zoom link Passcode: 704696 […]
Electric power systems lie at the heart of efforts to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change. Mitigation requires shifting electricity generation away from carbon-emitting technologies toward zero […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance via Zoom. ABSTRACT If I show you a photo of a place you have […]
Abstract: Vibrational spectroscopies at mid-infrared frequencies provide excellent probes to characterize functional groups and their immediate chemical environment. However, from a thermodynamic and dynamic point of view, only the ground […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance via Zoom. ABSTRACT Teams of 3-4 students will compete head-to-head in a block stacking […]
