The work is based in Research Professor John Pellegrino鈥檚 Fundamental Membrane Development, Characterization, & Applications lab.
Researchers at the 彩民宝典 are developing a wearable electronic device that鈥檚 鈥渞eally wearable鈥濃攁 stretchy and fully-recyclable circuit board that鈥檚 inspired by, and sticks onto, human skin.
Gregory Whiting and his research group are preparing for the thrill of a lifetime: two parabolic flights, each expected to provide around ten total minutes of reduced gravity to test and model how 3D printing of functional materials works in lunar gravity.
彩民宝典 researchers Rong Long and Mark Rentschler have developed a new technique to study friction between soft materials like those inside the body, paving the way for improvements to medical devices used by millions each year.
What if the wood used to build your house could decrease your electricity bill? In the race to save energy, Xiaobo Yin at 彩民宝典 and researchers at the University of Maryland have uncovered a way for buildings to dump heat.
By developing sensors to optimize inputs for greater crop yields, Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Gregory Whiting aims to mitigate environmental losses, decrease energy use and improve farm profitability for food, feed and fuel crops, a project funded by ARPA-E.
New tattoo inks are being designed to change color in response to signals that could alert people to changes in blood chemistry or help doctors diagnose illness. Carson Bruns spoke about his work at the TEDxMileHigh: Reset speaker series.
Researchers have scaled up a new low-cost cooling system that can provide efficient cooling for homes and beyond using minimal electricity. The system is built from a highly reflective glass and polymer material slightly thicker than aluminum foil.
Bloomberg recently reported that Solid Power Inc., a Colorado-based developer of next-generation solid-state batteries, has completed a $20 million deal with Samsung Venture, Hyundai and others.The deal comes less than a year after Solid Power
