MEAM Seminar: “Electrets, Magnetics and Deformation in Soft Materials”

Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.edu

Soft robotics, energy harvesting, large-deformation sensing and actuation, are just some of the applications that can be enabled by soft dielectrics that demonstrate substantive electromechanical coupling. Imagine now also a […]

MEAM PhD Thesis Defense: “Analytical Homogenization Estimates for the Effective Properties and Field Statistics of Viscoplastic Composites and Particle Suspensions”

Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.edu

Heterogeneous materials are commonly found in nature (e.g. soil, rock, blood) and engineering applications (e.g. paints, lubricants, sintered materials). Understanding the microstructure-properties relations is crucial to predicting how these materials […]
