Lehigh, Stony Brook, and Northwestern team with NSF to advance machine learning
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has announced its support of a Lehigh University-led research team that will advance machine learning by tying together techniques drawn from the fields of statistics, computer science, and applied mathematics.
Lehigh's CEE department recognized as second best program in the world by the AWRU
The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) recently listed Lehigh’s civil engineering program as the second best in the world, coming in right behind China’s Tongji University. For the department of civil and environmental engineering, it’s been a recognition 150 years in the making.
The 17-year professor - all with Lehigh - also heads the university's COR@L Laboratory
Professor Ted Ralphs was named interim chair of the department of industrial and systems engineering in August.
Srinivas Rangarajan, assistant professor in the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering, received a research grant from The American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund (ACS PRF) in September 2017.
Arindam Banerjee, an associate professor in the department of mechanical engineering and mechanics, was awarded a three-year NSF grant to study the impact of free-stream turbulence on tidal turbines.
Tidal energy is a form of hydropower that converts the energy obtained from tides into electricity. Hydrokinetic power has great potential for future energy generation since the tides are more predictable than the wind and sun.
Arup K. SenGupta, P.C. Rossin Professor in the departments of civil and environmental engineering and chemical engineering at Lehigh University, has written a book, “Ion Exchange in Environmental Processes: Fundamentals, Applications and Sustainable Technology,” published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. in September 2017.
Lehigh had a strong presence at the IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC) held during the first week of October 2017 in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. IPC is IEEE’s flagship conference dedicated to the fields of optics and photonics.
Lehigh faculty and students from the Center for Photonics and Nanoelectronics (CPN), the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), and the Department of Material Science and Engineering (MSE) presented nine technical talks.
Scientists in the United States and China have announced a discovery that they believe could enable the engineering of alloyed materials that are stronger and more ductile and possess superior electrical, magnetic and physical properties.
Writing in Science, the nation’s leading scientific journal, the researchers said they had found a surprising degree of order in the interior grain boundaries—the interfaces between crystalline grains—that determine the properties of polycrystalline materials such as metals and ceramics.
Lehigh University's newly established Department of Bioengineering is presenting in 18 poster and panel sessions at the annual meeting of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) in Phoenix, Arizona from October 12-14, 2017.
A “first-of-its-kind” optimization model developed by Lehigh engineers—in collaboration with Pennsylvania’s Department of Corrections (PADOC)—last night received the prestigious Daniel H. Wagner Prize for Excellence in Operations Research Practice for 2017.
