Faculty
- Professor Hanspeter Schaub is the new chair of the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the ºÚÁϳԹÏ.Schaub was elected chair by the Smead Aerospace faculty. He succeeds Brian Argrow, who is
- Researchers at ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï are part of a new $6 million grant from the National Science Foundation to help build the intelligent transportation systems of the future.
- A holistic discussion of quantum research on ºÚÁϳԹÏ's campus and across the state.
- Zamani wants to use real-life data, rather than mathematical models, to study and control autonomous systems with both software and physical components, bridging the gap between academia and industry and ensuring safety for all users.
- Six faculty members within the College of Engineering and Applied Science received CAREER Awards from the National Science Foundation in 2022.
- Shideh Dashti is an associate professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering at ºÚÁϳԹÏ's College of Engineering and Applied Science. Her research is focused on geotechnical engineering, centrifuge modeling, and designing resilient infrastructure in the wake of earthquakes and climate-related natural disasters.
- Global cement production accounts for 7% of annual greenhouse gas emissions in large part through the burning of quarried limestone. Now, a ºÚÁϳԹÏ-led research team has figured out a way to make cement production carbon neutral—and even carbon negative—by pulling carbon dioxide out of the air with the help of microalgae.
- Today’s offshore wind turbines can tower more than 490 feet above ground, their spinning blades churning out up to 8 megawatts (MW) each—about enough to power 4000 homes in the U.S. But with their increasing size comes challenges.
- The Pew Charitable Trust announced today that Assistant Professor Wyatt Shields has been selected as a 2022 Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences.
- Scientists at LongPath and ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï are using new laser technology to do what other technologies have struggled to do for years: detect natural gas, which is invisible to the eye, leaking from pipes at sites like this, in real time.
