Quantum Engineering Summer Seminar Series: Jon Felbinger, PhD [private-public partnerships] (Quantum Economic Development Consortium)

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

About the Series: The Quantum Engineering Summer Seminar Series is hosted by the Quantum Engineering Graduate Association (QEGA) every Friday at 12:00 - 1:00 pm EDT throughout the summer months and will be followed by a separate Fall series. The series invites leading world leading experts across academia, industry, and government working on experimental, theoretical, […]

MEAM Seminar: “Sedimentation of Active Suspensions: Hindrance and Phase-separation”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Sedimentation of active matter is found in many natural and industrial processes. It plays an important role on the distribution of plankton in oceans, which is key part of the carbon cycle (i.e. ocean's biological pump) that transports carbon from the ocean's surface to depth. In this seminar, I will present an investigation on the […]

Quantum Engineering Summer Seminar Series: William Oliver, PhD [superconducting qubits] (MIT and MIT Lincoln Labs)

MEAM Seminar: “Modboats: Building an Aquatic Modular Self-Reconfigurable Robotic System out of Underactuated Modules”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Modular robots offer the promise of flexibility; we will be able to deploy teams of generalist modules and reconfigure them into various specialists to perform whatever task is necessary. Surface swimming aquatic modular robots in particular are not well studied, however, because the literature assumes that the modules need to be holonomic, which makes them […]

MEAM Seminar: “Motion Planning for a Variable Topology Truss Robot”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Variable Topology Trusses (VTTs) are a new type of modular, self-reconfigurable robot (MSRR). Like other self-reconfigurable robot systems, a VTT can change its shape to adapt to a variety of tasks, offering a wider range of capabilities than a single robot configuration. While most MSRRs consist of robot modules that are connected in a chain […]
