    MEAM Seminar: “Exploiting Bistability for the Static, Dynamic and Aerodynamic Control of Mechanical Metamaterials”

    July 21 @ 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM /
    Heilmeier Hall (Room 100), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Mechanical metamaterials achieve extraordinary physical properties through their internal geometric architectures. While traditional metamaterials are limited by fixed designs, multistable reprogrammable metamaterials can modify these properties post-fabrication and morph into […]

    BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: Mengdi Tao

    July 27 @ 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM /

    The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Ravi Radhakrishnan are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Mengdi Tao. Title: "Disease Modeling and Systems Pharmacology: […]

    Tuesday Jul 28

    MEAM Seminar: “Multiscale Fatigue Fracture of Hierarchical Additively Manufactured Alloys”

    July 28 @ 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Most mechanical failures are caused by fatigue, where damage accumulates gradually during sub-critical cyclic loading. Yet despite nearly two centuries of study, the microstructural origins of fatigue fracture remain elusive. […]
