If you’re looking for an opportunity to innovate, head to the spaces where disciplines intersect.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released an alarming report this October about what it would take to cap rising global temperatures at 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Hitting this target has motivated countries to start developing and executing plans for decarbonization of their power generation and energy matrix, as well as other options, such as removing CO2 out of the atmosphere itself.
Dr. Tamás Terlaky, a professor of industrial and systems engineering at Lehigh University, has been elected vice president of meetings of INFORMS, the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences.
A driver behind the wheel of a luxury sedan spills a cup of hot coffee and, in a moment of distraction, suddenly faces a life-shattering crash.
But in a split second—cue the dramatic pause—the vehicle’s automatic breaking or crash avoidance technology engages the car’s brakes. A time-critical intervention that avoids the tragedy altogether.
D. Gary Harlow, professor and chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics at Lehigh University’s P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, has been named a fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).
Dr. Israel E. Wachs, the G. Whitney Snyder Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Lehigh University’s P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science has been elected as a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI).
