To reduce carbon dioxide emissions, a major driver of today's worsening climate change, it is essential to decrease the use of fossil fuels. While coal and natural gas, primarily used for electric power generation, are being replaced through active technological development, biomass has emerged as...
Advances in materials fabrication and probing have been instrumental in the continued miniaturization of high-performance electronic and photonic devices. Soon, the feature size variability will be just a few atoms where the fundamental and engineering limits become significantly important. In this seminar, I will present my recent and...
Stretchable and printable conductors play a crucial role in the design of soft electronics, textile electronics and the evolution of wearable technology. We established an extremely stretchable and printable conductor with high conductivity and durable stretching cycling through the incorporation of liquid metal. We extended...
Metrology, or the science of measurement, is essential in all manufacturing fields. The phrase “if it can’t be measured, it can’t be manufactured” may be overused, but it remains true. Once a workpiece is machined, its dimensions need to be inspected for quality control. There...
The 4th Industrial Revolution & AI technologies are poised to bring transformative changes to numerous manufacturing fields, including chemical processes. In this seminar, we will explore the evolution of chemical manufacturing processes from the "Dynamics" point of view. With advancements in measurement, communication, and computing...
Global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050 from current 8.1 billion. The rising population will significantly increase our demand for resources such as food, feed, fuels, chemicals/materials with concomitant generation of large quantity of residues and wastes (water) along with greenhouse gases...
