CEE Prof. Frangopol and alum Kim ’11 PhD co-author third book on structural performance
System Reliability, Risk, Longevity, Sustainability and Optimal Decision-Making—the latest collaboration by the distinguished structural engineering professor and his former doctoral student, now a professor at Wonkwang University—will be published by CRC Press in April 2025
Tackling the toxic legacy of fracking wastewater
Groundbreaking process developed by Lehigh Engineering researchers, detailed in 'Nature Water,' concentrates hypersaline brine at room temperature, offering an energy-efficient path to cleaner disposal and resource recovery
Smarter quality control for tiny tech
In memoriam: Donald L. Talhelm, ECE professor emeritus
Lehigh alumnus Donald L. Talhelm ’59 ’60G ’78P ’81P, professor emeritus of electrical and computer engineering and a former ECE associate department chair, passed away November 10, 2024, at the age of 92.
Sustainable research goes beyond the Lehigh Valley
Prof. Jonas Baltrusaitis of Lehigh's Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department (ChBE) traveled to Tokyo and Australia to visit fellow research collaborators. While in Tokyo, he met with Prof.
‘We now know why lithium nano-cathodes fail, and it’s all thermodynamics’
In its newsletter “Ceramic Tech Today,” the American Ceramic Society highlighted research led by Professor Ricardo H.R. Castro, chair of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Lehigh University, on why lithium-ion battery cathodes fail.
Widely used in a range of devices, from smartphones to electric vehicles, Li-ion batteries are essential to today’s energy and mobility systems.
With This 1 Move, Google May Have Solved a Huge AI Content Problem
Lichao Sun, professor of computer science and engineering, and research colleagues have released a study into a technique that prevents AI systems from unfairly or illegally “scraping” musical tracks to train their data-hungry AI algorithms, Inc. reports. The HarmonyCloak tool adds data to music recordings that effectively tricks an AI algorithm into thinking it’s already heard a particular track. The algorithm decides there’s nothing new there to learn from, and so it moves on without incorporating the music into its training data.
Can electrical signatures help diagnose Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a complex and long-term illness characterized by extreme fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest, and can worsen with physical activity. The exhaustion is severe enough to limit a person’s ability to carry out daily activities like cooking, showering, or even getting dressed. Additional symptoms can include muscle pain, joint pain, memory issues, headaches, sleep problems, and sensitivity to light or sound.
Lehigh partners with North Carolina A&T to enhance flood damage mapping with AI and advanced radar
One only needs to glance at the news, social media, or even just out the window to understand the devastation caused by flooding. Recent back-to-back major hurricanes have brought catastrophic rainfall that has devastated communities across the southeastern United States.
With climate change, experts predict these extreme weather events will increasingly become the norm. Among the many ways that researchers are devising strategies to protect and assist vulnerable areas, one such effort involves increasing the speed and accuracy of damage assessments.
