A recent article on the Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation (LVEDC) website features Lehigh's Technical Entrepreneurship (TE) master's program, which will begin accepting applications on
Robotic arms are typically composed of joints, which help the arm move and perform a task. Each of those joints is capable of either rotating or extending—and the number of such possible independent movements is referred to as the robotic system’s degree of freedom. The more joints in the arm, the higher the degree of freedom.
The promise of quantum computing is a big one.
The ability to solve—in days—problems in areas such as mathematics, finance, and biological systems that are so complex it would take a classical computer hundreds of years to calculate.
But that ability is a long way off, and a big reason why is noise.
Associate professor Maryam Rahnemoonfar, a leader in “data science for sustainability,” joined the faculty of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, with a joint appointment in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, on August 15, 2022.
Rahnemoonfar is an expert in data science, machine learning, computer vision, and remote sensing. She comes to Lehigh from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC), where she was an associate professor in the College of Engineering and Information Technology.
The P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science is pleased to introduce the following new members to our distinguished faculty:
Dan M. Frangopol, the inaugural Fazlur R. Khan Endowed Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture at Lehigh University, is a co-author of a paper recognized with the 2022 European Council on Computing in Construction (EC3) Thorpe Medal.
Chances are, you’ve never given much (if any!) thought to the films that coat things like your phone charger. But without them–and without their exact dimensions of thickness and hardness–the technology we rely on every day would be useless. In this episode, associate professor Nick Strandwitz explains what he calls the “magic” of atomic layer deposition, a thin film growth technique that, among many other things, helps our computers and smartphones do what they do–and do it fast.
