Following the recently announced retirement of longtime mechanical engineering professor John Ochs, the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science has announced new leadership for key programs that emerged and flourished under his guidance.
Eventually, your phone charger is going to die.
Month after month of getting pushed and pulled into and out of its port will degrade the protective film that coats the connector. And then, usually when you need it the most, your charger kicks it, your phone soon follows, and life as you know it comes undone. As least for a while.
This inevitable breakdown happens of course to everything, from industrial systems to vehicles to nanoelectronics. Friction causes parts to drag against each other, which wastes energy and wears out materials.
We live in the era of software 2.0.
The Internet of Things is coming of age.
The explosion of connected devices—and their rapid insurgence into our homes and workplaces—has so far outpaced investment in keeping them secure.
But that’s starting to change, as buyers and sellers of “smart” products are less willing to throw caution to the wind when it comes to cybersecurity, according to Dr. Rick Blum, the Robert W. Wieseman Professor of Electrical Engineering at Lehigh University.
Dr. Mooi Choo Chuah, a professor of computer science and engineering at Lehigh University, has been awarded a 2019 Qualcomm Faculty Award (QFA). The award supports key professors and their research through a charitable donation to their university.
Dr. Xiaochen Guo and her team at Lehigh University are leading the way in cutting-edge research into artificial neural networks, mimicking the way the brain learns so similar systems can be implemented in computers.
To create a more energy-efficient and brain-like system for use in artificial intelligence, Guo’s novel approach is to create a living neural network—a machine using actual human cells—to run learning applications.
Professor Dan M. Frangopol was recently awarded the inaugural Fazlur R. Khan Life-Cycle Civil Engineering Medal.
Dan M. Frangopol, the Fazlur R. Khan Endowed Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture, recently received two significant international academic honors.
Prof. Dan M. Frangopol, Lehigh’s Fazlur R. Khan Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture, has recently earned significant honors from organizations the world over.
Dan Frangopol, a structural engineer noted for his contributions to life-cycle engineering, has been named an honorary professor by two of China’s top engineering universities: the Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) and Chang’an University in Xian.
