July 8, 2024 -CBE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Metal Oxides and Ion-Modification: A Study in Chemical Stability, Transformations, and Dynamics” (Bader A. Alayyoub)
CBE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Metal Oxides and Ion-Modification: A Study in Chemical Stability, Transformations, and Dynamics” (Bader A. Alayyoub)
Abstract: Metal oxides, both simple and complex, are essential for catalysis and energy conversion due to their versatile physicochemical properties and are often enhanced through ion doping, a well-established strategy to improve their functionality. However, challenges remain, particularly in accurately characterizing the surface stability of such oxides beyond idealized conditions and in understanding the thermodynamics […]

July 9, 2024 -ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Graph Machine Learning under Requirements”
MEAM Seminar: “Metallivore Robots Powered by Aluminum-air Batteries”
Mobile robots have shown significant advancements in agility, intelligence, and efficiency over the past few decades. However, their endurance and overall performance remain limited by the onboard power supplies. Current power sources typically restrict mobile robots to areas close to the electrical grid and necessitate heavier batteries for extended range. Energy refueling could be significantly […]
CBE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Path-Sampling and Machine Learning for Rare Abnormal Safety and Reliability Events” (Vikram Sudarshan)
Abstract: It is crucial for chemical and manufacturing industries to ensure safe and reliable operation of their plants and processes, by mitigating safety issues (e.g., extreme operating conditions) and reliability issues (e.g., production losses). But, a significant challenge faced by these industries is that such events are rare and undesirable, with little occurrence data available […]
ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Fair and Generalizable Machine Learning for Neuroimaging”
Machine learning has been widely adopted to medical imaging research, yet it suffers from domain shift for real world applications. Due to the heterogeneity of medical data, machine learning-based diagnostic models are also prone to biases. In this thesis, we start from arguing the necessity of domain adaptation to achieve the optimal performance for each […]
ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Graph Machine Learning under Requirements”
Graphs are powerful mathematical tools that enable modeling of complex systems. Graph machine learning exploits possibly unknown data structures, which provides a unified approach to tackle a wide variety of problems. However useful in practice, graph machine learning solutions tend to suffer from three main limitations: they do not scale with the size of the […]

July 11, 2024 -MEAM Seminar: “Examples of Elasto-Capillary Mediated Interactions on Thin Elastic Film”
MEAM Seminar: “Examples of Elasto-Capillary Mediated Interactions on Thin Elastic Film”
I plan to tell two short stories. The first story is about a new drop fluidics that uses a deformable and stretchable elastomeric film as the platform. Such a soft film decorated with magnetic particles can be deformed locally with an external magnetic field. When these deformations are coupled with capillary force, small liquid drops […]
