ME Alumni Connect Day enjoyed another great turnout this year, with over 40 alumni and nearly 400 students participating. The event provides an opportunity for students to connect with alumni, build their network and gain insight into what it's like
The challenges of wildfires, industrial pollution and vehicle emissions have centered the issue of outdoor air quality in the public consciousness.With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic and the realization that the pathogen primarily transmits
Last summer, over 3,500 leaders from more than 500 university and college engineering schools attended the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Annual Conference & Exposition. Rebecca "Becky" Komarek and her co-authors, Angela Bielefeldt and Daniel Knight won Best Paper LEAD Division and the Best Overall Professional Interest Council (PIC) paper award across a group of divisions.
Studying how insects perform key tasks is giving scientists insight into how robots can achieve complex actions with limited processing power, pointing towards building them on the scale of flies and cockroaches.
Researchers at ²ÊÃñ±¦µä are using lasers to precisely quantify the performance of high-speed engines. Those measurements — recently described in detail in Optica — are key to propelling superfast hypersonic vehicles and providing better engine performance overall.
The Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering had another successful year for research funding, bringing in 37 new awards and funding on 72 existing sponsored projects, which totaled nearly $14 million.Fiscal year 2022 marked 10 consecutive
The Quantum Engineering Initiative (QEI) Collaboration Lab will encourage cross-campus research and experiments in the high-impact field of quantum engineering.
Shelly Miller, professor of mechanical engineering, has been recognized with 2022-23 Distinguished Research Lectureships. The Lectureship is among the most esteemed honors bestowed upon a faculty member at the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä.
Professor Sean Humbert discusses the movie Real Genius, flies, ski testing and dynamic modeling, math and slarving and more.
Scientists at LongPath and ²ÊÃñ±¦µä are using new laser technology to do what other technologies have struggled to do for years: detect natural gas, which is invisible to the eye, leaking from pipes at sites like this, in real time.
