January 17, 2023 -MEAM Seminar: “Multifunctional Soft Materials for Electronics, Robots, and Adhesives”
MEAM Seminar: “Multifunctional Soft Materials for Electronics, Robots, and Adhesives”
Multifunctional soft materials and interfaces create intriguing new opportunities to enhance performance through programmable and adaptable properties. I will discuss: 1) Novel material architectures of solid-liquid soft composites for electronics, 2) Switchable and programmable materials for adhesion control, and 3) Morphing materials for soft robotics. For soft composites, I will show how liquid metal droplets […]

ASSET Seminar: Domain Adaptation Under Causally Structured Distribution Shifts, Zachary Lipton (Carnegie Mellon University)
Presentation Abstract: Faced with unlabeled data in deployment that is sampled from a different distribution than that which generated the training data, all bets are off. Moreover, while numerous heuristics have been proposed for this vague setting, it remains unclear when any among them are applicable. One way to render these problems identifiable is to […]
Spring 2023 GRASP SFI: Michael Johnson, Philadelphia Robotics Coalition “Building STEM Equity through Robotics”
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance via Zoom. ABSTRACT Philadelphia Robotics Coalition founder, and School District of Philadelphia engineering teacher Michael Johnson discusses how Philadelphia public schools are using the competitive FIRST robotics programs to build STEM equity in our city. With the goal to inspire and prepare the next generation of STEM […]

January 19, 2023 -BE Seminar: “Tissue Architecture Driven by Immune Cells” (John Hickey, Stanford University)
POSTPONED – MSE Seminar: “Additive Manufacturing of Intermetallic: A Designer’s Approach”
Modern materials contain extraordinary levels of complexity, with components spanning a hierarchy of length scales. Designing materials with complex microstructures and demonstrating unique behaviors would be difficult solely using a reductionist approach to materials development. A powerful utility in this endeavor is using multiple, correlative, and scaffolding computational tools. This talk focused on using an […]
BE Seminar: “Tissue Architecture Driven by Immune Cells” (John Hickey, Stanford University)
"Tissue Architecture Driven by Immune Cells" John has developed multiplexed spatial omics techniques and computational tools to decode critical interactions within the multidimensional data (e.g., multiscale models and deep learning algorithms). He applied these tools to understand spatial relationships of cells within the healthy human intestine, inflammation induced cancers (esophageal cancer), and in T cell […]

PICS/MEAM Seminar: “A Low Rank Tensor Approach for Nonlinear Vlasov Simulations”
In this work, we present a low-rank tensor approach for approximating solutions to the nonlinear Vlasov equation. Our method takes advantage of the tensor-friendly nature of the differential operators in the Vlasov equation to dynamically and adaptively construct a low-rank solution basis through the discretization of the equation and an SVD-type truncation procedure. We utilize […]
