In this talk, I will trace my group's history in using molecular dynamics simulations to investigate conceptual links among molecular architectures, intermolecular interactions, and network structures and how they determine thermomechanical properties of polymerized materials that these applications demand.
Students will present their final design projects at the Enabling Engineering Fall Showcase. The projects that will be presented are listed below. Accessible Golfing Caution Radar Accessible Plant Watering System Switch Activated Cornhole VR App Switch Activated Toys Adaptive Drum Set Prosthetic Finger Enabling Engineering is a Northeastern University student group that designs and builds […]
Title: COPILOT: Cooperative Perception using Lidar for Handoffs between Road Side Units Committee Members: Prof. Kaushik Chowdhury (Advisor) Prof. Stratis Ioannidis Prof. Jennifer Dy Abstract: This thesis presents COPILOT, a ML-based approach that allows vehicles requiring ubiquitous high bandwidth connectivity to identify the most suitable road side units (RSUs) through proactive handoffs. By cooperatively exchanging […]
