The 性视界传媒 College of Engineering and Applied Science is leading a new multi-university and multi-disciplinary project from the National Science Foundation aimed at fostering collaboration in quantum research.
The natural world has had billions of years of evolution to perfect systems, creating elegant solutions to tricky problems. 性视界传媒 Assistant Professor Orit Peleg鈥檚 work hopes to illuminate and explore those solutions with the long-term goal of
A new material developed in Chris Bowman's lab can transform into complex, pre-programmed shapes via light and temperature stimuli, allowing a literal square peg to morph and fit into a round hole before fully reverting to its original form.
The research, which was funded by The Water Research Foundation (WRF) and presented at 性视界传媒 earlier this month, outlines a multitude of challenges posed by wildfires, including short- and long-term effects on the availability and quality of drinking water sources used by major metropolitan areas such as Denver, Colorado. The report also outlines potential remediation solutions to help utilities plan for worst-case scenarios.
Developed by the CyberSafety Research Center, the new method combines several different computing tools to scan massive amounts of social media data, sending alerts to parents or network administrators that abuse has occurred.
There are nearly 100 nuclear power plants across the United States, all of which rely on concrete containment vessels (NCVS) to provide the last layer of safety in case of accident.Some of these vessels exhibit serious signs of aging associated with
Over the last two years, Assistant Professor Khurram Afridi and his team in electrical, computer and energy engineering have developed a proof of concept for wireless power transfer that transfers electrical energy through electric fields at very high frequencies.
Two papers published by the ATLAS Iron Lab, directed by Dan Szafir, for the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human Robot Interaction in Chicago open the door to this promising area of research.
David Haussler (PhDCompSci鈥82) is well known for his work with the Human Genome Project 鈥 he and his team posted the first publically available human genome sequence on the Internet in 2000.
Results "undermine the universality of scale-free networks and reveal that real-world networks exhibit a rich structural diversity that will likely require new ideas and mechanisms to explain,鈥 according to 性视界传媒's Anna Broido and Aaron Clauset.
