DESCRIPTION:"Digital Geomaterial Poro-Mechanics: A Multi-Physics Multi-Sca
 le Approach Elucidating the Physics of Environmental Resilience" presente
 d by Manolis Veveakis\, PhD Associate Professor Civil and Environmental E
 ngineering Duke University \nAbstract: \nEnvironmental Resilience is the 
 ability of geomaterials to maintain an acceptable level of strength for e
 ngineering applications (whether structural\, hydrogeological or geotechn
 ical) while exposed in long-term natural environmental adversity. In this
  talk we will show that the environmental resilience of rocks is a proper
 ty that depends on both the compositional and morphological properties of
  materials\, but also on the environmental factors that can affect and al
 ter them at different degrees and scales. We show that starting from digi
 tized CT-scan images of rocks and combining experimental\, numerical and 
 theoretical concepts we develop a three-scale modeling approach (km -or e
 ngineering- scale\, cm scale and sub-mm scale) whereby the resilience of 
 rocks in the engineering scale is directly linked to their microstructura
 l response in a variety of loading scenarios. Using metaheuristic approac
 hes a predictive constitutive relationship linking the response of rocks 
 with their morphometric properties (porosity\, surface area\, grain size 
 and Euler characteristic) and environmental factors (temperature\, pressu
 re\, chemistry of saturating fluids) is retrieved and tested. Finally\, e
 xamples of coupled mechanical deformation at elevated temperatures and/or
  in the presence of chemically active fluids that alter the microstructur
 e of the digital rock samples and affect the macroscopic response of rock
 s at the engineering scale will be discussed.\n\nFaculty\, Graduate Stude
 nts & Postdocs Welcome!\nThis is an in-person-only event.\nFirst 10 stude
 nts to sign-up upon arrival are invited to a free post-event dinner with 
 the speaker at Broadhead Center.

DESCRIPTION:Brief abstract:\nHuman locomotion is a highly dynamic activity
  demanding coordination across many parts of the body. Typical movement p
 atterns are often considered optimal in certain ways\, such as for minimu
 m energy consumption or favorable stability\; yet these patterns differ a
 cross individuals and can be altered by age\, injury\, or behavior. This 
 presentation will interweave several areas of ongoing research in locomot
 ion biomechanics and motor control\, such as: why and how upper body move
 ment can affect the ankles\; wearable technology and methods to measure a
 nd alter biomechanics in the "real world"\; biomechatronic prosthetic ank
 les to improve stability and balance\; and novel rehabilitation robots to
  study and train motor control in the legs.  \nBrief Bio:\nDr. Peter Adam
 czyk earned degrees in Mechanical Engineering from Case Western Reserve U
 niversity (B.S.) and the University of Michigan (M.S. and Ph.D) in the ar
 eas of Robotics and Biomechanics. He spent several years running a startu
 p company dedicated to advancing the science and technology of lower-limb
  prosthetics and real-world motion assessment. He is now the Mead Witter 
 Foundation Associate Professor in Mechanical Engineering at the Universit
 y of Wisconsin-Madison where he directs the Biomechatronics\, Assistive D
 evices\, Gait Engineering and Rehabilitation Laboratory (UW BADGER Lab\, 
 http://uwbadgerlab.engr.wisc.edu). \nDr. Adamczyk's research aims to enha
 nce physical and functional recovery from impairments affecting walking\,
  running\, and standing. Core foci include basic research on locomotion b
 iomechanics\; design of semi-active foot prostheses for gait restoration 
 after amputation\; wearable sensors for movement assessment during real-l
 ife activities\; and rehabilitation robotics to explore motor learning an
 d neural adaptation in the lower limb.

 advances in mechanical engineering and materials science provide broad ac
 cess to diverse\, highly engineered classes of 3D architectures\, with ch
 aracteristic dimensions that range from nanometers to centimeters and are
 as that span square centimeters or more.  The approach relies on geometri

DESCRIPTION:Porous materials play a significant role in modern life from e
 ngineering and sciences to medicine and health. Even though\, we are surr
 ounded by natural and man-made porous materials\, a fundamental understan
 ding of the complex physics and behavior of many porous structures remain
 s unknown. This lack of knowledge is mainly due to their complex\, hetero
 geneous structures and limited experimental capabilities to capture their
  behaviors across multiple temporal and spatial scales. In this talk\, I 
 will begin by providing an overview of porous materials and their substan
 tial role in engineering and scientific communities. I will then discuss 
 some of our recent efforts in developing novel multiscale numerical tools
  combined with phase-filed fracture method as well as a newly developed a
 symptotic homogenization method to capture effective properties of porous
  media subjected to multi-physics processes. I will conclude the talk by 
 how we can accelerate scientific discoveries in porous media by integrati
 ng novel numerical tools and advanced experimental capabilities.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nComplex cellular behaviors such as motion and divis
 ion are directed by far-from-equilibrium chemical networks that regulate 
 the assembly and reconfiguration of a cell's architecture at the molecula
 r scale.  We have been asking how one can program the evolution of synthe
 tic materials using designed chemical networks analogous to the biologica
 l networks that regulate cell and tissue architecture. In these systems\,
  the dynamical evolution of molecular programs\, or reaction processes\, 
 drive the evolution of the environment where materials assembly and act. 
  This work thus amounts to controlling the pathways of assembly and recon
 figuration. Molecular programs can comprise tens of species whose interac
 tions are kinetically controlled\, providing many new levers for controll
 ing material formation and metamorphosis. These methods are thus promisin
 g routes toward building radically new materials that could grow into spe
 cific shapes\, heal\, or adapt to their environments.   \n\nI will descri
 be our recent work focused on controlling the dynamic assembly and shape 
 change of biomolecular materials such as hydrogels and semiflexible polym
 er networks.  Different biomolecular signals can induce different dynamic
  polymerization and depolymerization processes in these materials and how
  chemical networks can be coupled to these materials to induce dynamic ma
 terial behavior. To understand what new behaviors can arise in these syst
 ems when the chemical networks that regulate them become large and comple
 x\, we have recently developed integrated synthetic in vitro genetic regu
 latory networks consisting of oligonucleotide templates\, T7 RNA polymera
 se and an RNase.  These networks can consist of tens of different interco
 nnected network elements\, making it possible to construct synthetic regu
 latory networks of complexities comparable to those of simple viruses\, e
 nabling stepwise\, multifaceted regulation of materials and chemistry.

DESCRIPTION:This seminar provides an overview of two efforts directed towa
 rd assessing and improving the performance of structures conducted by res
 earchers in the Smart Structures Technology Laboratory at the University 
 of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  The first focuses on topology optimizat
 ion of structures subjected to random dynamic loads.  Nearly all approach
 es to date only consider static deterministic loads. However\, many of th
 e most severe dynamic loads that civil structures must withstand are rand
 om and dynamic in nature. A general topology optimization framework is pr
 esented to accommodate directly the random dynamic nature of the excitati
 on and the responses. The proposed framework is illustrated for seismical
 ly excited and wind excited buildings\, as well as bridges subjected to r
 andom traffic loading. The results demonstrate the efficacy of this appro
 ach for efficient topology optimization of buildings subjected to stochas
 tic dynamic loads. The second part of the seminar discusses recent advanc
 es in computer vision techniques as they apply to the problem of civil in
 frastructure inspection and monitoring. Inspection applications presented
  include identifying context such as structural components\, characterizi
 ng local and global visible damage\, and detecting changes from a referen
 ce image\, with focus on rapid structural condition assessment of buildin
 gs and bridges after disasters. Monitoring applications discussed include
  static measurement of strain and displacement\, as well as dynamic measu
 rements of displacement and modal analysis. Additionally\, promising area
 s of growth for research in the field of computer vision-based civil infr
 astructure inspection and monitoring. This research will ultimately lead 
 to more effective performance of our civil infrastructure.

  transmission and end use of natural gas.  We will examine a Bayesian inf
 erence approach built around turbulent transport theory applied to statio
 nary and mobile measurements of methane concentration. Additionally\, an 
 information-theoretic sensor path-planning algorithm will be demonstrated
  for scaling the approach from the single well to the region or enterpris
 e. It is based on a principle of maximum expected entropy reduction in th
 e fugitive source distribution\, conditioned on wind fields\, associated 
 dispersion\, and prior sensor measurements.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nRathnayake group focuses on designing environmental
 ly benign nanomaterials and explore their chemical and physical propertie
 s for sustainability applications\, specifically focusing on desalination
 \, wastewater remediation\, and critical mineral reclamation. We have dev
 eloped a series of bio-based coordination polymer frameworks with high su
 rface area and porosity with tailored selectivity to capture minerals and
  impurities in water resources and convert them for valuable commodities 
 in batteries. As our parent nanomaterials\, we have synthesized bioinspir
 ed porous microstructures of coordination polymer frameworks from natural
  polyphenols and biopolymers using green chemistry principles. Supporting
  their amphoteric sorption\, microstructures exhibit rapid removal of hea
 vy metals\, organic dyes\, selective extraction of lithium\, and desalina
 tion of dissolved solids. These de novo porous microstructures and their 
 physiochemical surface properties open new avenues to design thermally an
 d chemically stable\, eco-friendly\, low-cost amphoteric sorbents with mu
 ltifunctionality for adsorption\, ion-exchange\, separation\, storage\, a
 nd sensing of both anions and cations present in heterogeneous media. Thi
 s research has translated to a point-of use solid-phase extraction (SPE) 
 flow technology (TRL 4) for direct lithium extraction (DLE) and conversio
 n to battery grade lithium carbonate from brine resources\, while yieldin

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nWhat would we be able to do if we could build elec
 tronically integrated machines at a scale of 100 microns? At this scale\,
  semiconductor devices are small enough that we could put the computation
 al power of the spaceship Voyager onto a machine that could be injected i
 nto the body. Such robots could have on board detectors\, power sources\,
  and processors that enable them to sense\, interact\, and control their 
 local environment. In this talk I will describe several cutting edge tech
 nologies we are developing to achieve this vision.  \nBio:\n\nProfessor I
 tai Cohen studies the physics of matter in motion. At Cornell\, his resea
 rch has focused on building microscopic robots\, controlling the shear th
 ickening behavior of microscopic and nanoscopic particles suspended in a 
 fluid\, exploring the mechanics of materials ranging from biological tiss
 ues to origami inspired metamaterials\, discovering the aerodynamic and n
 euromuscular mechanisms used by insects during flapping flight\, and dete
 rmining how audiences at heavy metal concerts coordinate their movement. 
 Understanding how emergent behaviors arise from the microscopic rules gov
 erning these systems remains one of the biggest challenges in Physics.   
 \nProfessor Cohen received his BS in Physics from the University of Calif
 ornia at Los Angeles\, and his PhD in Physics from the University of Chic
 ago. Following his graduate studies\, he was a Post-doctoral fellow in Ph
 ysics and the Division of Engineering and Applied Science at Harvard Univ
 ersity. In 2005 he joined Cornell and is currently a professor of Physics
 . Professor Cohen is an NSF Career grant recipient\, he is a Fellow of th
 e American Physical Society\, and is the recipient of the Kappa Delta Ann
  Doner Vaughn Award for his work on cartilage mechanics. He has served as
  a Feinberg and Braginsky fellow (2012) and the Rosi and Max Varon Visiti
 ng Professor at the Weizmann Institute (2021) and the van der Waals Visit
 ing Professor at the University of Amsterdam (2022). He has published ove
 r 110 research articles\, given nearly 300 invited seminars\, colloquia a
 nd conference presentations\, and co-authored the book Finding Your Resea
 rch Voice: Story Telling and Theater Skills for Bringing Your Presentatio

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Flight vehicles are becoming increasingly more flex
 ible. This is the case for transport aircraft\, unmanned aerial vehicles\
 , and even missiles. Such designs are inherently flexible and susceptible
  to adverse aeroelastic phenomena\, such as excessive response to atmosph
 eric turbulence and flutter instability. Some very flexible configuration
 s bring new challenges as the traditional structural and aeroelastic mode
 ls are inadequate to describe their behavior. In the Aeroelasticity Labor
 atory at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering\, we derive novel computati
 onal and experimental approaches to study very flexible wings and test me
 thodologies to assess their characteristics in flight. The talk will intr
 oduce some of our recent aeroelastic studies\, including a wind tunnel te
 st of an extremely flexible wing that deforms to 50% of its span under ae
 rodynamic loads and the Active Aeroelastic Aircraft Testbed (A3TB)\, a 3D
 -printed experimental vehicle for flutter suppression studies. \nProfesso
 r Daniella Raveh\, Technicon '92\, Ph.D. '99\, focuses her research in th
 e area of aeroelasticity\, the interaction between aerodynamic forces and
  flexible structures. She earned her Technion degrees in aerospace engine
 ering and was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Aerospace Systems Des
 ign Laboratory at Georgia Institute of Technology before joining the Tech
 nion in 2001.\nHost: Professor Earl Dowell

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:   Piezoelectric thin films are of increasing interes
 t in low voltage microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) for sensing\, actu
 ation\, and energy harvesting. This seminar will discuss how materials ar
 e optimized for these applications\, as well as examples of the use of pi
 ezoelectric films over a wide range of length scales. The key figures of 
 merit for actuators and energy harvesting will be discussed\, with emphas
 is on how to achieve these on practical substrates. For example\, control
  of the domain structure of the ferroelectric material allows the energy 
 harvesting figure of merit for the piezoelectric layer to be increased by
  factors of 4 - 10. Likewise\, control of crystallographic orientation an
 d substrate clamping enables large increases in the figure of merit for a
 ctuators. To illustrate the functionality of these films\, examples of in
 tegration into MEMS structures will also be discussed\, including miniatu
 rized ultrasound systems for imaging and particle manipulation\, low freq
 uency and non-resonant piezoelectric energy harvesting devices\, and piez
 oelectronic transistors as a potential replacement for CMOS electronics.\

DESCRIPTION:TALK ABSTRACT:\nLiquid-liquid phase separation in biological m
 embranes is usually described as occurring on sub-micron length scales. A
  stunning counterexample occurs in S. cerevisiae - the same yeast used to
  brew beer and make bread. When these yeast sense that they have run out 
 of glucose to eat\, coexisting liquid phases appear within the lipid memb
 rane that surrounds one of their organelles. This phase separation is fun
 ctionally important\, enabling yeast survival during periods of stress. T
 his talk will review recent results showing: (1) This miscibility transit
 ion is reversible as would be expected from equilibrium thermodynamics\, 
 even though it occurs in a living system. (2) Yeast actively regulate thi
 s phase transition to hold the membrane transition ~15C above the yeast g
 rowth temperature. (3) In cases when domains appear as stripes\, there is
  no current theory that explains all material properties and physical obs
 ervables of the system. No previous knowledge of biology is needed for th
 is seminar

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging allows non-
 invasive\, non-ionizing assessment of cardiac function and anatomy and is
  especially beneficial in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). C
 urrent clinical workflow mostly relies on manual analysis of CMR images. 
 Segmentation of different chambers\, mainly the left and right ventricles
 \, from CMR datasets is an essential step for calculation of clinical ind
 ices such as ventricular volume and ejection fraction. We present deep le
 arning methods and deformable models that can automatically segment CMR i
 mages and improve the accuracy and robustness. Training these models requ
 ires large annotated datasets\, which are not readily available particula
 rly for CHD patients. To mitigate this issue\, we devised a novel method 
 that uses a generative adversarial network (GAN) to synthetically augment
  the training dataset via generating synthetic CMR images and their corre
 sponding chamber segmentations. Our methods outperform the existing techn
 iques presented in different MICCAI challenges and commercially available
  segmentation software. Finally\, we argue that distributed learning meth
 ods that train locally but build global models can increase the access by
  preserving the privacy. We discuss asynchronous federated learning metho
 ds that provide high precision while significantly reducing the data tran
 smitted during client-server interactions.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Many problems in modern materials chemistry require 
 highly structured chemical environments at near-molecular scales\, integr
 ated into larger micro-to-macroscopic constructs - ranging from nanoelect
 ronics to ligand clustering in biology. However\, approaches that are suc
 cessful at achieving molecular-scale control are often difficult to exten
 d across length scales\, or into challenging chemically heterogeneous env
 ironments required for real function. Here\, we describe a surprisingly r
 obust and scalable route to achieve nm-to-macroscopic chemical patterning
  of materials based on amphiphilic striped phases\, which can be assemble
 d on graphite\, graphene\, MoS2\, and other 2D materials. Recently\, we h
 ave also demonstrated that these patterns can be assembled on hard\, crys
 talline 2D materials\, then transferred to soft\, amorphous materials inc
 luding PDMS and hydrogels. The transferred surface layer of fully extende
 d\, relatively rigid polydiacetylenes with functional headgroups confers 
 both chemical and mechanical function\, creating new opportunities for na
 nostructured material design in biology and wearable electronics. We will
  discuss the relationship between structure\, assembly\, and reactivity i
 n the molecular template layer\, as well as applications of the templates
  in directing the assembly of high-aspect-ratio inorganic nanocrystals an
 d in designed cell scaffolds for regenerative medicine.\n\nShelley Clarid

 defect and surface roughness. This talk presents a\nsharp-diffusive inter
 face computational method\nfor simulating multiphysics processes in metal
  AM\,\nfocusing on better handling gas-metal interface\,\nwhere metal AM 
 physics mainly takes place. The\nframework consists of two components. Th
 e first is\na mixed interface-capturing/interface tracking\nmethod to exp

 (EIBM) to impose the critical\nflow\, heat\, and phase transition Neumann
  BCs\,\nwhich are enforced in a smeared manner in current\nAM models\, on
  the gas-metal interface with strong\nproperty discontinuity.\nI will dem

 sed by thoroughly comparing the simulated\nresults against experimental m

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nA major challenge in the study of dynamical systems
  is that of model discovery: turning data into reduced order models that 
 are not just predictive\, but provide insight into the nature of the unde
 rlying dynamical system that generated the data. We introduce a number of
  data-driven strategies for discovering nonlinear multiscale dynamical sy
 stems and their embeddings from data. We consider two canonical cases: (i
 ) systems for which we have full measurements of the governing variables\
 , and (ii) systems for which we have incomplete measurements. For systems
  with full state measurements\, we show that the recent sparse identifica
 tion of nonlinear dynamical systems (SINDy) method can discover governing
  equations with relatively little data and introduce a sampling method th
 at allows SINDy to scale efficiently to problems with multiple time scale
 s\, noise and parametric dependencies.   For systems with incomplete obse
 rvations\, we show that the Hankel alternative view of Koopman (HAVOK) me
 thod\, based on time-delay embedding coordinates and the dynamic mode dec
 omposition\, can be used to obtain a linear models and Koopman invariant 
 measurement systems that nearly perfectly captures the dynamics of nonlin
 ear quasiperiodic systems. Neural networks are used in targeted ways to a
 id in the model reduction process. Together\, these approaches provide a 
 suite of mathematical strategies for reducing the data required to discov
 er and model nonlinear multiscale systems.\nNathan Kutz is the Yasuko End

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nArtificial intelligence (AI) may capture the proper
 ties and functions of materials better than previous theoretical/computat
 ional methods because it targets correlations and does not assume an unde
 rlying physical model. However\, the statistical analysis and interpretat
 ion require careful attention.\nIn this talk I will discuss recently deve
 loped\, explainable AI methods [1\,2] and applications [3-5] that combine
  detailed\, consistent experimental data (called "clean data") with theor
 etical data for the identification of "rules" that determine the properti
 es and functions of materials. These "rules" depend on descriptive parame
 ters\, called "materials genes". In analogy to genes in biology they are 
 correlated with a certain material property or function. Thus\, these mat
 erials genes help the identification of materials that are\, for example\
 , better electrical conductors or better heat insulators or better cataly
 sts.\n\n(*) Work done in collaboration with Lucas Foppa\, Thomas Purcell\

DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we will present the recent progress on doped Hf
 O2 based ferroelectric devices. First\, we will discuss fundamental devic
 e physics including the minor loop switching and history effect\, the dra
 in-erase scheme and the variability and scalability of ferroelectric fiel
 d effect transistor (FeFET). Machine learning assisted predictive modelin
 g framework for phase variation is proposed. Second\, we will present com
 pute-in-memory (CIM) paradigm for deep neural network acceleration. For M
 B-level image classification workloads\, a new concept on ferroelectric n
 on-volatile capacitor (nvCap) for charge-domain computing is proposed\, a
 nd the related capacitive crossbar array is experimentally demonstrated. 
 Hybrid synapse that combines charging/discharging mechanism and non-volat
 ile storage is proposed for in-situ training. For GB-level bioinformatics
  workloads\, 3D NAND architecture based on FeFET is proposed for implemen
 ting hyperdimensional computing with heterogeneous integration.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nInterfacial water structure is key to diverse che
 mical and physical processes\, including many of environmental and geoche
 mical relevance.  It can be probed by vibrational sum-frequency generatio
 n (vSFG) spectroscopy as well as ultrafast time-resolved vSFG.  Combined 
 with computational tools\, such as molecular dynamics simulations\, a mic
 roscopic understanding of interfaces can be approached.  Our experiments 
 show that in the absence of surface charge (pH 2)\, water at silica surfa
 ces exhibits significantly slower OH stretch vibrational relaxation (~600
  fs) compared to bulk water.  However\, at charged silica surfaces (e.g.\
 , pH 6)\, bulk-like fast dynamics (~200 fs) are observed at low ionic str
 ength.  This decelerates to ~600 fs with the addition of NaCl.  In parall
 el\, vSFG results demonstrated that silica interfacial water structure is
  most sensitive to ions at pH=6-8\, correlating with the known salt and p
 H dependence of silica surface reactivity.  Consequently\, it is unclear 
 whether the observed slowing of the vibrational dynamics is due to the re
 duction in the Debye length\, or because of changes in the local hydrogen
  bonding environment caused by the electrolyte and how this might depend 
 on the identity of the ions or the solid surface.  The combination of mol
 ecular dynamics simulations with spectroscopic and time-resolved vSFG exp
 eriments on aqueous Al2O3 interfaces\, along with the use of a molecular 
 probe (SCN-)\, sheds light on the ongoing debate on the role of ions in i
 nterfacial water structure and the hydrogen bonding network\, as well as 
 whether the observed behavior is specific to silica/water interfaces or c
 an be generalized to other aqueous interfaces.

DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nElectrochemical processes are vital for global deca
 rbonization efforts because they are central to many energy-efficient sto
 rage and conversion technologies and can also be leveraged for large scal
 e chemical manufacturing. In the context of these energy applications\, i
 t is necessary to understand factors that control the kinetics and select
 ivity of electrochemical reactions. At the electrode level\, many factors
 \, including the chemical composition\, atomic or molecular structure\, s
 urface area\, and morphology\, have been leveraged to direct electrochemi
 cal reactions. An emerging strategy is to geometrically confine the elect
 rochemical reaction within a porous electrode material. This places a phy
 sical boundary around the electrochemical reaction and thus defines the r
 eaction microenvironment\, while also spatially restricting the reactants
  and products. Experimental studies of nanoconfinement effects on electro
 chemical reactions require electrochemical interfaces with well-defined e
 nvironments. In this presentation\, I will discuss our materials chemistr
 y approach to define the confined electrochemical environment within mole
 cularly pillared transition metal oxides\, and our study of electrochemic
 al reactions taking place within these electrodes using in situ and opera
 ndo electrochemical methods.

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials S
 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Emily Pentzer\, Professor 
 of Chemistry Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A & M\, who will 
 be giving a talk on "Leveraging Polymer Chemistry and Emulsions for Energ
 y Applications."\n\nAbstract: The Pentzer group uses fundamental polymer 
 chemistry and Pickering emulsions to prepare composite structures and est
 ablish structure-function-application relationships. Emulsions are biphas
 ic systems in which droplets of one liquid (e.g.\, oil) are dispersed in 
 a continuous phase of another (e.g.\, water)\, and those stabilized by pa
 rticles are called Pickering emulsions. These phase-separated systems pro
 vide an ideal platform for the synthesis of composites of disparate mater
 ials when combined with polymerizations. Specifically\, the Pentzer group
  developed 2D particle surfactants that could be used for different fluid
 -fluid interfaces\, including oil-water\, oil-oil\, and ionic liquid-oil\
 , and they combine the high interfacial area with simple polymerizations 
 to fabricate hybrid structures. For example\, organization of polymers at
  the fluid-fluid interface can produce liquid-filled capsules for carbon 
 capture or thermal energy management\, as well as functional additives fo
 r additive manufacturing. This presentation will describe the production 
 of polymer composites including porous scaffolds\, stabilized bubbles\, c
 apsules of functional liquids\, and polymer particles armored with inorga
 nic particles\; the impact of composition and architecture will be discus
 sed\, focusing on direct air capture of CO2 and thermal energy management
 .\n\nBio.: EMILY PENTZER is Professor of chemistry materials science and 
 engineering\, and chemical engineering at Texas A&M University\, where sh
 e also serves as Associate Dean of Research for the College of Arts and S
 ciences. She received a BS in chemistry from Butler University (2005) and
  PhD in chemistry from Northwestern University (2010)\, where her thesis 
 focused on preparing and polymerizing unsaturated lactones and lactams. S
 he then worked with Professor Todd Emrick in the Polymer Science and Engi
 neering Department at UMass Amherst where she focused on the synthesis an
 d assembly of electronically active materials for organic photovoltaics. 
 In 2013\, Dr. Pentzer started her independent career as an assistant prof
 essor of chemistry at Case Western Reserve University and she moved to Te
 xas A&M in 2019.

 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Alan H. Epstein\, R.C. Mac
 laurin Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics Emeritus (MIT)\, who wil
 l give a talk entitled\, "Batteries\, Airliners\, and Money."\n\n\nABSTRA
 CT: In recent years there has been much excitement over the possibility o
 f battery energy storage replacing aircraft fuel\, both to reduce aviatio
 n's environmental impact and to enable new civil aviation markets. Intere
 st in commuter\, regional\, and narrowbody airliners has been driven by g
 lobal warming concerns\, while excitement over electric Vertical Takeoff 
 and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft is focused on opening new markets for aviati
 on. Since the useful energy density of current batteries are more than an
  order of magnitude lower than that of fuels now used or contemplated\, m
 uch attention has been paid to the battery energy density needed to yield
  ranges useful in various aircraft markets. This lecture examines how cha
 racteristics of known battery chemistries can influence electric aircraft
  design\, cost\, and environmental impact. The focus is on battery power 
 for scheduled airlines since they produce the vast majority of aviation's
  environmental impact. Themes include the importance of operational const
 raints on economics\, the treatment of uncertainty in engineering decisio
 n making\, and how technology might change the outcome.\n\nBIO: DR. ALAN 
 EPSTEIN joined the faculty at MIT in 1980 where he is now the R.C. Maclau
 rin Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics Emeritus. Starting in 2007\
 , he was the Vice President Technology and Environment at Pratt & Whitney
 \, retiring in 2018. Dr. Epstein has published and lectured widely on aer
 ospace technology\, microsystems\, and the environment\, and has testifie
 d to Congress on these topics. He has served on many advisory panels incl
 uding as the chair of the NASA Aeronautics and Space Engineering Board\, 
 chair of the Board on Army Science and Technology\, and a member of the N
 ASA Advisory Council. Dr. Epstein is a member U.S. National Academy of En
 gineering and chair of its Aerospace Section. He is an Honorary Fellow of
  the AIAA\, a fellow of the ASME and a fellow of the UK Royal Aeronautica

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nBulk nanostructured materials offer tremendous op
 portunity for re-inventing materials\, but also pose challenges both in t
 erms of characterization\, design\, processing\, and scaling. This talk w
 ill present recent work developing nanoengineered hierarchical advanced (
 aerospace-grade) composites with enhanced mechanical properties\, with a 
 focus on imparting multifunctionality. Such hybrid advanced composites em
 ploy aligned nanofibers (in most of our work\, aligned carbon nanotubes\,
  A-CNTs) in several architectures to enhance \\ bulk properties of existi
 ng aerospace-grade advanced composites. Building multifunctionality concu
 rrent with these mechanical property improvements includes thermal and el
 ectrical conductivity tailoring for ice protection\, damage sensing\, and
  self-manufacturing\, among others. For example\, out-of-oven (OoO) manuf
 acturing utilizes conductive heating from flexible nanostructured CNT fil
 ms to conductively\, rather than convectively\, heat the composite\, resu
 lting in 2-3 orders of magnitude reduction in required energy\, opening u
 p new possibilities in areas such as accelerated curing\, autoclave-free 
 processing\, and cure sensing. Fundamental studies on polymer-nanofiber i
 nteractions via variable-volume fraction (vol%) A-CNT polymer nanocomposi
 tes\, including processing limits to ultra-high vol% systems\, led to the
  development of a combined top-down and bottom-up fabrication methodology
  that addresses several of the key issues (agglomeration\, viscosity\, sc
 ale\, alignment) that have frustrated the use of nanomaterials in bulk ma
 terials. New research in related areas including carbon nanostructure cat
 alysis\, nanomaterials in microelectronics and energy storage\, 3D damage
  progression via x-ray tomography\, and new work in boron nitride nanotub
 es (BNNTs) will be introduced if time allows.

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Dept. of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Scienc
 e welcomes Carmel Majidi\, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Carnegi
 e Mellon University\, who will give the talk\, "Soft-Matter Engineering f
 or Robotics and Wearables."\n\nAbstract: Progress in soft lithography and
  soft materials integration has led to extraordinary new classes of soft-
 matter sensors\, circuits\, and transducers.  These material technologies
  are composed almost entirely out of soft matter - elastomers\, gels\, an
 d conductive fluids like liquid metal - and represent the building blocks
  for machines and electronics that are soft\, flexible\, and stretchable.
  Because of their intrinsic compliance and elasticity\, such devices can 
 be incorporated into soft\, biologically-inspired robots or be worn on th
 e body and operate continuously without impairing natural body motion. In
  this talk\, Majidi will review recent contributions from his research gr
 oup in creating soft multifunctional materials for wearable electronics a
 nd soft robotics using these emerging practices in "soft-matter engineeri
 ng" with a focus on soft robots powered using shape memory materials and 
 soft material architectures for highly stretchable digital electronics\, 
 wearable energy harvesting\, and electrically-responsive actuation. In ad
 dition to describing the synthesis and properties of these materials\, Ma
 jidi will highlight several systems-level implementations that demonstrat
 e their practical use in robotics\, bioelectronics\, and human-computer i
 nteraction.\n\nBIO: CARMEL MAJIDI is the Clarence H. Adamson Professor of
  Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon\, where he leads the Soft Mach
 ines Lab dedicated to the discovery of novel material architectures that 
 allow machines and electronics to be soft\, elastically deformable\, and 
 biomechanically compatible.  Currently\, his research is focused on model
 ing\, design\, and control of soft robotic systems as well as the develop
 oment of multifunctional materials that exhibit unique combinations of me
 chanical\, electrical\, and thermal properties and can function as "artif
 icial" skin\, nervous tissue\, and muscle. Majidi received his PhD in Ele
 ctrical Engineering at UC Berkeley with postdoc appointments at Harvard &
  Princeton.

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials S
 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Wilbur Lam\, Professor at 
 Emory University\, who will give the talk\, "Engineering microsystems to 
 investigate the cellular mechanics of blood in health and disease."\n\nAB
 STRACT: Hematologic processes are frequently comprised of cellular and bi
 omolecular interactions that are biophysical in nature and may involve bl
 ood cells (red blood cells\, white blood cells\, and platelets)\, endothe
 lial cells\, soluble factors (coagulation proteins\, von Willebrand facto
 r\, and cytokines)\, the hemodynamic environment\, or all of the above. T
 hese phenomena are often pathologically altered in hematologic diseases b
 ut are difficult to study using standard in vitro and in vivo systems. Wi
 th the capabilities to dissect cellular and biomolecular phenomena at the
  micro to nanoscales with tight control of the mechanical and fluidic par
 ameters\, micromechanical and microfluidic systems can serve as novel yet
  physiologic in vitro disease models to provide insight into the pathophy
 siology of blood disorders. Due to their inherent portability\, these mic
 rosystems can also be translated into diagnostic tests used at the point-
 of-care or even at home\, where they can be conducted by patients themsel
 ves\, especially if those technologies are coupled to existing consumer-b
 ased devices like smartphones. By developing state-of-the art microdevice
 s to answer hematologic questions that be addressed with standard techniq
 ues\, microsystems engineering has the potential to significantly advance

 rials Science welcomes Yonggang Huang of Northwestern University to deliv
 er the 2025 George W. Pearsall Distinguished Lecture-noon\, March 5\, 202
 5\, in Schiciano Auditorium. Reception to follow.\n\nTitle: \nBioelastic 
 State Recovery for Haptic Sensory Substitution\n\nAbstract: \nThe rich se
 t of mechanoreceptors found in human skin offers a versatile engineering 
 interface for transmitting information and eliciting perceptions\, potent
 ially serving a broad range of applications in patient care and other imp
 ortant industries.  Targeted multisensory engagement of these afferent un
 its\, however\, faces persistent challenges\, especially for wearable\, p
 rogrammable systems that need to operate adaptively across the body.  Her
 e\, we present a miniaturized electromechanical structure that\, when com
 bined with skin as an elastic\, energy-storing element\, supports bistabl
 e\, self-sensing modes of deformation.  Targeting specific classes of mec
 hanoreceptors as the basis for distinct\, programmed sensory responses\, 
 this haptic unit can deliver both dynamic and static stimuli directed as 
 either normal or shear forces.  Systematic experimental and theoretical s
 tudies establish foundational principles and practical criteria for low-e
 nergy operation across natural anatomical variations in the mechanical pr
 operties of human skin.  A wireless\, skin-conformable haptic interface\,
  integrating an array of these bistable transducers\, serves as a high-de
 nsity channel capable of rendering input from smartphone-based 3D scannin
 g and inertial sensors.  Demonstrations of this system include sensory su
 bstitution designed to improve the quality of life for patients with visu
 al and proprioceptive impairments.\n\nBio: \nYonggang Huang is the Achenb
 ach Professor of Mechanical Engineering\, Civil & Environmental Engineeri
 ng\, and Materials Science & Engineering at Northwestern University. He i
 s interested in the mechanics of stretchable and flexible electronics and
  deterministic 3D assembly. He has published two books and more than 700 
 journal papers\, including 15 in Science and eight in Nature. He is a mem

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials S
 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Bobby Noble\, Senior Progr
 am Manager Gas Turbine R&D at EPRI\, who will be presenting a lecture ent
 itled\, "Decarbonization Pathways - How Dispatchable Gas Turbines Are Cri
 tical for Our Energy Trilemma." \n\nABSTRACT: Most countries and areas wo
 rldwide have decarbonization goals with major milestones targeted for 203
 0\, 2040\, and 2050. These goals target major carbon reductions to full\,
  net-zero requirements over the next quarter century.  While 26 years may
  seem like an extended timetable\, as an energy industry there are many c
 hallenges to overcome in a short period of time to realize these goals.  
 To ensure reliable\, resilient\, and affordable energy\, it is imperative
  to bolster a mix of generation and source options. It is clear renewable
 s alone\, even with battery storage\, will not meet the needs of society.
  Clean energy sources like Nuclear and dispatchable generation using low-
 carbon fuels or carbon capture are needed as well.  Specifically for Gas 
 Turbines\, low-carbon fuel options are of strong interest around the worl
 d.  Typically\, most will point to hydrogen\; however\, ammonia is a stro
 ng candidate for some areas along with renewable liquid fuels playing a l
 arge part. This seminar will focus on research from around the world aime
 d at developing additional capabilities for gas turbines\, specifically h
 ighlighting NOx emissions. Demonstration data will also be shared to help
  translate laboratory testing to the real-world along with effects on com
 bustion dynamics and operability range implications.\n\nBOBBY NOBLE is th
 e Senior Program Manager for the Gas Turbine R&D at EPRI. He is responsib
 le for the gas turbine research area\, where he and his team work on topi
 cs involving all aspects of the gas turbine system. His primary gas turbi
 ne expertise is in gas turbine combustion\, with focus on combustion dyna
 mics\, hydrogen and other renewable fuels\, along with next-generation\, 
 low-NOx combustor architectures. He's instrumental in gas turbine health 
 and performance analytics developments\, including digital twins. Mr. Nob
 le is an ASME Fellow with more than 20 years of experience in the gas tur
 bine and power industry. He's the 2024 ASME Westinghouse Silver Medal rec
 ipient. He holds five patents\, co-edited the book "Renewable Fuels: Sour
 ces\, Conversion\, and Utilization\," and has authored/co-authored 15+ jo
 urnal publications along with 50+ conference publications.

 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Omar Farha\, a professor a
 t Northwestern\, who will be giving a talk entitled\, "Smart and Programm
 able Sponges: from Basic Science to Implementation and Commercialization.
 "\n\nAbstract: As chemists and materials scientists\, it is our duty to s
 ynthesize and utilize materials for a multitude of applications that prom
 ote the development of society and the well-being of its citizens. Since 
 the inception of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)\, researchers have propo
 sed a variety of design strategies to rationally synthesize new MOF mater
 ials\, studied their porosity and gas sorption performances\, and integra
 ted MOFs onto supports and into devices. MOFs are a class of porous\, cry
 stalline materials composed of metal-based nodes and organic ligands that
  self-assemble into multi-dimensional lattices. In contrast to convention
 al porous materials\, an abundantly diverse set of molecular building blo
 cks allows for the realization of MOFs with a broad range of properties. 
 Efforts have explored the relevance of MOFs for applications including\, 
 but not limited to\, heterogeneous catalysis\, guest delivery\, water cap
 ture\, destruction of nerve agents\, gas storage\, and separation. For ex
 ample\, we have developed an extensive understanding of how the physical 
 architecture and chemical properties of MOFs affect material performance 
 in applications such as catalytic activity for chemical warfare agent det
 oxification. Recently\, start-up companies have undertaken MOF commercial
 ization within industrial sectors. ION-X™ is used in this talk as an exam
 ple to show case the way NuMat Technologies is innovating at the intersec
 tion of molecular design and precision engineering\, to build the product
 s driving the industries of tomorrow.\n\nBIO: Omar K. Farha is the Chair 
 of the Chemistry Department and a Charles E. and Emma H. Morrison Profess
 or in Chemistry at Northwestern University\, an Executive Editor for ACS 
 Applied Materials & Interfaces and President of Numat Technologies. His c
 urrent research spans diverse areas of chemistry and materials science ra

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials S
 cience welcomes Professor Diann Brei (Northwestern)\, to present the MEMS
  Seminar\, "Smart Technology Design in a Transformative World."\n \nABSTR
 ACT: All around us our world is undergoing rapid transformative technolog
 ical change\, from energy to mobility to health sectors. To meet volatile
  needs\, there is a growing demand for integrative thinking. Integrative 
 thinking is systematically integrating disparate disciplines to effective
 ly tackle complex engineering problems. For decades\, the field of Smart 
 Materials and Structures has fostered an integrative mindset - it is in o
 ur DNA. While emerging technologies based upon smart materials hold many 
 benefits for industry\, it has been a long journey to transition research
  advancements into real products. The field of smart materials and struct
 ures is viewed as "enabling" or "emerging" spanning either a) new markets
  where the products are first generation without a clear application and 
 there is an absence of design models present so empirical developmental m
 ethods must be employed\, or b) developing markets where there are a few 
 guiding models/methods but the products are not optimized and not reachin
 g their full commercial potential. ... There needs to be a clearer path t
 o transition all the progress made during the past twenty-five years of r
 esearch into fruitful commercial products\, especially within high-volume
 \, low-cost markets. This talk will discuss these efforts from a technolo
 gical design and development perspective with application examples from s
 everal industries such as 1) Medical industry with Liftware spoon to coun
 teract hand tremor and FDA fast track MENDD treatment for bowel growth\, 
 and 2) Automotive industry with Soft Adaptive Structures for deployable i
 nterior and exterior features in autonomous vehicles. The importance of c
 ollaborative\, synergistic mission-driven relationships spanning from bas
 ic research to device design into system integration will be highlighted 
 as crucial for successful transition from emerging smart material researc
 h of today to competitive commercial products of tomorrow.

DESCRIPTION:TITLE:\nAI/ML in Additive Manufacturing and Polymer Synthesis 
 for New Data and Discovery\n \nAbstract:\nCreating and curating new data 
 appends the way we approach materials science. In additive manufacturing 
 (AM)\, the fabrication of parts and objects with high complexity and high
  performance is advantageous over other methods. Using nanocomposites ena
 bles highly improved properties even with "commodity polymers" that do no
 t need to undergo high-temperature processes or extensive reformulation. 
 With artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML)\, optimizing th
 e formulation and manufacturing methods is possible. Using sensors capabl
 e of a feedback loop mechanism and the ability to use simulation to creat
 e digital twins\, optimizing properties in record time is possible. Stati
 stical and logic-derived design\, including regression analysis\, are sta
 rting points for designing experiments (DOE) or principal component analy
 sis(PCA) in optimization and analysis vs trial-and-error approaches when 
 working with polymer materials. In this talk\, we demonstrate the approac
 hes toward understanding Nanostructuring in composites and hierarchical a
 pproaches in optimization via AI/ML and other training/learning sets for 
 specific properties and applications\, such as 3D printing and flow chemi
 stry reactions. Introducing more sensors (monitoring instruments) in AM p
 rocesses and real-time ML with online monitoring allows a feedback loop a

DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials S
 cience\, Spring 2025 Seminar Series\, welcomes Charbel Farhat\, Professor
  at Stanford University\, to present the lecture\, "Innovative Computatio
 nal Methods for Predicting Supersonic Parachute Inflation Dynamics in Mar
 s Landings." \nABSTRACT: Current Mars landing technology utilizes low-den
 sity supersonic decelerators\, such as lightweight\, high-efficiency para
 chutes. Future missions with larger and heavier rovers will require bigge
 r parachutes and inflatable drag devices\, necessitating advanced simulat
 ions using high-fidelity\, multi-disciplinary computational models for su
 personic parachute inflation dynamics (SPID). These models must address c
 omplex factors\, including shocks\, turbulence\, porous flow boundary con
 ditions\, the behavior of fabric materials\, extensive contact between th
 in surfaces\, and highly nonlinear fluid-structure interactions amid topo
 logy changes.\nThis lecture presents research conducted at Stanford Unive
 rsity in collaboration with NASA Ames and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory t
 o develop these computational models and highlights several associated in
 novations. Key advancements include a multi-scale approach for modeling w
 oven fabric dynamics through locally attached microstructures and mechani
 cs-informed machine learning\, a total variation diminishing method for s
 olving multi-material flow problems while eliminating spurious oscillatio
 ns\, a subgrid scale modeling technique for porous wall boundary conditio
 ns\, and an energy-conserving discretization method for fluid-structure t
 ransmission interfaces of disparate spatial dimensions.\nAdditionally\, t
 he lecture will report validation results from simulating the SPID of par
 achutes tested during NASA's 2018 ASPIRE mission\, which informed the par
 achute design selection for the Mars 2020 mission that successfully lande
 d Perseverance on February 18\, 2021.\n\nCHARBEL FARHAT is the Vivian Chu
 rch Hoff Professor of Aircraft Structures at Stanford University's School
  of Engineering\, where he chaired the Department of Aeronautics and Astr
 onautics from 2008 to 2023. His service includes participation in the Spa
 ce Technology Industry-Government-University Roundtable (2017-23)\, U.S. 
 Air Force Scientific Advisory Board (2015-19)\, Dept. of Commerce's Emerg
 ing Technology and Research Advisory Committee (2008-18)\, and Director o
 f the Stanford-King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology Center of E
 xcellence for Aeronautics and Astronautics (2014-24).

DESCRIPTION:Superfluorescence (SF) is a hallmark of macroscopic quantum co
 herence\, in which an initially incoherent ensemble of quantum emitters s
 pontaneously synchronizes\, leading to a burst of coherent light. Traditi
 onally\, this process requires cryogenic conditions to suppress dephasing
 \, as the emergence of coherence demands that the collective light-matter
  coupling outpace decoherence processes.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present
  the discovery of an unconventional form of SF that persists at room temp
 erature in lead-halide perovskites\, enabled by the formation of solitons
 -self-organized quantum islands of coherence embedded in an incoherent ba
 ckground. These solitonic regions act as localized macroscopic quantum st
 ates that are vibrationally isolated from the thermal lattice via a mecha
 nism we term Quantum Analog of Vibration Isolation (QAVI). While conventi
 onal SF relies on radiative coupling to induce phase synchronization\, so
 litonic SF emerges from a nonlinear\, density-driven structural transitio
 n governed by exciton-lattice interactions.\n\nThis phenomenon not only c
 hallenges long-standing assumptions about coherence limits in solids\, bu
 t also points to a broader framework for realizing macroscopic quantum ph
 ases in thermally disordered environments-where self-localization and col
 lective order can coexist without global symmetry breaking.\n\nKenan Gund
 ogdu received his B.S. in Physics from Boğaziçi University in 1999 and hi
 s Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Iowa in 2004\, where he studied
  spin dynamics in semiconductors. He completed two postdoctoral appointme
 nts-first in the Chemistry Department at the University of Iowa and then 
 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Since 2008\, he has been a 
 faculty member in the Department of Physics at North Carolina State Unive
 rsity. His research focuses on ultrafast spectroscopy\, quantum coherence
 \, and emergent phenomena in quantum materials\, including recent work on
  room-temperature solitonic superfluorescence in lead-halide perovskites.
