Abstract: As the intensive use of natural resources continues to place significant pressure on aquatic ecosystems (e.g., hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico), numerous methods and models have been explored in the literature. However, finding equitable solutions for both people and the planet requires open dialogue and accessible scientific information. Despite various approaches, a gap […]

Abstract Traditional polymeric materials have limitations that hinder the development of next-generation products. For instance, many natural materials can restore a portion of their properties after sustaining sub-critical damage—an ability that artificial materials have only recently begun to mimic. Imbuing polymers with the ability to self-heal would be of great advantage for advanced applications (e.g., […]

Abstract Space nuclear propulsion (SNP) can help enable robust exploration and utilization of the solar system. Initial operational systems may be used primarily in cislunar space or for deep space science missions. Higher-performance SNP systems may be used for human missions to Mars and beyond. The seminar will discuss potential SNP mission applications and historical […]

MAE Seminar – Nature’s Unifying Theories and How They Can Be Used for Good November 7, 2024, at 12:50pm, Location: MAE-A 303 Philip LeDuc, Ph.D Departments of Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computational Biology, and Biological Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University Abstract I have always been interested in examining whether seemingly unconnected areas of my life […]

Abstract Many of my successes in my 20+ year R&D career in ophthalmics were achieved by never giving up. Under the guidance of Dr. Eugene Goldberg, he shaped the way I performed R&D by teaching me to always keep going. There has to be a way! I hope to share some of the technologies I’ve […]
