August 13, 2019 -MEAM Seminar: “Mechanical Models for DNA”
MEAM Seminar: “Mechanical Models for DNA”
We will discuss two complementary mechanical models for DNA that deal with, respectively two problems: one, phase transitions in a DNA molecule, and two, allosteric interactions between two ligands bound to DNA. Experimental studies on single molecules of DNA have reported a rich variety of cooperative structural transitions, including coexistence of three phases, when a […]

August 14, 2019 -MEAM Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Additive Manufacturing and Mechanical Properties of Cellulose Nanofibril Materials”
MEAM Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Additive Manufacturing and Mechanical Properties of Cellulose Nanofibril Materials”
Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) are a nanomaterial derived from plants that have high specific stiffness and strength, can be made into optically transparent materials, and are biodegradable. These properties make CNFs an attractive building block for bulk structural materials. However, CNFs are typically produced in aqueous suspension at low CNF weight fractions (<1 wt.%), which makes […]

August 15, 2019 -MEAM Seminar: “Delivering Expressive and Personalized Fingertip Haptic Cues”
MEAM Seminar: “Delivering Expressive and Personalized Fingertip Haptic Cues”
The importance of meaningful tactile experiences has become increasingly apparent in areas such as teleoperation, education, and gaming. As the applications of rendering haptic stimuli are growing, so are the requirements of haptic interfaces, in that the intended audience is becoming more diverse and the intended interactions are becoming more complicated. For the past few […]
