    • MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Experimentally Validated Reduced-order Modeling for the Control of Flow in Compliant Structures”

    /
    Moore 216 200 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    While the movement of fluid through rigid systems is a well-characterized classical problem, predicting the behavior of fluid flow in compliant systems, in which structural deformation and the behavior of the fluid are strongly coupled, remains a challenge. There are many applications related to soft actuators, adaptive structures, and biomedical transport devices in which understanding […]

    MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Neural Operator Design From A Test-Time Learning Perspective”

    /
    Towne 319 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, United States

    Neural operator models offer a path toward modeling physical systems at low computational cost by learning mappings between function spaces. However, as mesh sizes and model parameter counts scale up, standard operator architectures face steep computational bottlenecks. In this presentation, I will motivate neural operator design directly from a test-time learning perspective. I will demonstrate […]

    MSE Society: Ice Cream Social – Liquid Nitrogen

    /
    Quain Courtyard

    On Wednesday, September 2, the Penn Materials Science and Engineering MSE Society will host its annual Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Social from 5:00–6:00 p.m. in the Quain Courtyard. Join us for homemade vanilla ice cream prepared with liquid nitrogen, the fixins, and a chance to connect with fellow students, faculty, and staff.

    MSE Seminar: “Working Safely in the Lab: Navigating Common Laboratory Hazards in MSE Research”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    EHRS staff will discuss how to work safely in the lab while navigating the changing landscape of materials science and engineering research. The talk will also cover; - Safety and evacuation procedures. - Safe use of tube furnaces, especially in combination with flammable gases. - Hazards associated with old chemical inventory. - Sustainability initiatives at […]

    MEAM Seminar: “Additive Manufacturing of Electronic Skins and Musculofascial Multifunctional Structures”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Materials of the future require burgeoning combinations of outstanding properties (e.g.’s, mechanical, electrical, and stimuli-responsiveness). My talk will cover two broad examples of current and ongoing work from our group towards this effort. The first example will cover our work on designing liquid metal emulsions for 3D printed soft conductors and electrochemically active materials to […]

    MEAM Seminar: “Lagrangian Stretching: A New Lens on Complex Fluid Flows”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Viscoelastic flows are common in many natural and industrial applications, such as biofilm transport, drug delivery, and enhanced oil recovery. The stretching of polymeric chains in viscoelastic flows induces elastic instability, which manifests in symmetry-breaking, time-dependent flows, and anomalous transport properties. The knowledge of the polymeric stress field is essential for understanding transport in viscoelastic […]
