The waste generated by power generation utility companies could be a potential source of metals and minerals that are key components of modern electronics, batteries, vehicles, and the clean-energy industry as a whole.
Sensors enable us to monitor changes in systems of all kinds.
The materials at the heart of those sensors, of course, ultimately determine their end-use application. Devices made of silicon, for example, enable ultrafast processing in computers and phones, but they aren’t pliable enough for use in physiological monitoring.
They also require a lot of energy to produce.
When we think about drones, we tend to think about Amazon. But their potential is much greater, and arguably far more important, than dropping off a box of laundry pods by lunchtime (an idea that’s struggled to take off since Jeff Bezos floated it more than a decade ago).
Thank you to everyone who came to our end of the 2023-2024 school year party on Friday, May 3rd. We had lots of great food and socializing. We were able to welcome our newly declared students and celebrate some standout undergraduate and graduate students.
Elsa Reichmanis, Professor and Carl Robert Anderson Chair in Chemical Engineering in Lehigh University’s P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, has been elected to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, a highly regarded national honor society.
Reichmanis is an internationally recognized expert in the field of microlithography. She has made wide-ranging contributions in the design and development of polymer/organic materials and processes for advanced electronics and photonics.
As artificial intelligence is inevitably woven into the workplace, teams of humans will increasingly collaborate with robots on complex design problems, such as those in the auto, aviation, and space industries.
Lehigh ISE Timothy J. Wilmott Endowed Chair Professor and Chair Luis Nunes Vicente has been selected as a Fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM). SIAM has over 14,000 individual members in all areas of industrial and applied math.
