The elastic properties of materials are determined by a few material constants such as the Young’s modulus. Using super-structures one can effectively change these “constants”. In this way we obtain […]
Abstract In recent years, a new type of synthetic microparticle has captured the imagination of researchers across the physical and biological sciences. These so-called active colloids convert chemical or environmental […]

This seminar will be held virtually - Zoom link coming soon. The engineering of Biology presents infinite opportunities for therapeutic design, diagnosis, and prevention of disease. We use what we […]
Abstract: Haptic devices allow touch-based information transfer between humans and intelligent systems, enabling communication in a salient but private manner that frees other sensory channels. For such devices to become […]
Find out how you can get more involved with STEM faculty and students. Learn more about STEM majors at Penn. Hosted by the Makuu Center and the SEAS Office of […]
I will present recent work on the modeling of the structural response of shape memory alloy tubes, bars, and beams. We have developed a new constitutive model that captures pseudoelastic […]
