MEAM Master’s Thesis Defense: “Investigating Jet Interactions in the Multi-Jet SALP Robot”
Jet propulsion is a common locomotion strategy in nature. We developed an underwater particle image velocimetry (PIV) system to investigate the hydrodynamic effects of the SALP (Salp-inspired Approach to Low-energy […]
MEAM Master’s Thesis Defense: “In Situ Additive Manufacturing of Metal-Graphene Composites by Upcycling Polymers”
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a bourgeoning additive manufacturing technique for rapid prototyping and creating unconventional designs using metal alloys. In parallel, graphene has garnered significant research interest since […]
Spring 2025 GRASP Seminar: Robin Walters, Northeastern University, “Pushing the Limits of Equivariant Neural Networks”
This will be a hybrid event with in-person attendance in AGH 306 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Despite the success of deep learning, there remain challenges to progress. Deep […]
MEAM Seminar: “Biomedical Innovations for Global Health Research and Technology (BIGHEART): NOAS, EXODUS, iTEARS, and BOAS”
This presentation will discuss the concept of BIGHEART and present various illustrative examples of this approach. The initial focus will be on NOAS (Nanoscale Optical Antennas) within the context of […]
CBE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Designing Solvent-Based Order Parameters for Characterizing Binding of Surfaces with Different Hydrophobicity Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations” (Jun Lu)
Abstract: Life is dependent on water: most self-assembly and binding processes of biomolecules take place in water. Water-mediated interactions are an essential driving force behind these processes, which is largely […]
ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Graph Neural Networks for Communication in Multi-Agent Systems”
Communication networks support a wide range of applications in multi-agent systems by solving core problems such as routing, scheduling, and resource allocation. In this thesis, we focus on data-driven routing […]
