SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Adam Caparco
DESCRIPTION:Protein-based materials for sustainable bioprocesses \nProtein materials\, whose function can be programmed by their amino acid sequence\, possess the potential to address many societal challenges by providing a sustainable and biocompatible alternative to many traditional materials. As an example\, the enhancement of enzymes for biocatalysis serves as a gateway for more sustainable chemical manufacturing. I will demonstrate that by designing an enzyme to fuse to a solid support material\, we can vastly improve its stability and recover the material between reactions for multiple uses. Protein materials also serve as a platform for targeted delivery in medicine and agriculture. I will show that by transforming inactivated plant viruses into spherical nanoparticles for encapsulation\, hydrophobic agrochemicals can be delivered through the soil and paralyze roundworms for pest management with high efficacy. \n\nAdam Caparco\, Ph.D. is a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California\, San Diego in the Department of NanoEngineering. His research under Prof. Nicole Steinmetz is funded by a USDA NIFA fellowship and is focused on using plant virus nanoparticles as agricultural delivery systems for pest management and genetic engineering of plants. Prior to this position\, Dr. Caparco completed his doctoral work in Biomolecular Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology under Profs. Julie Champion and Andreas Bommarius\, where he focused on using self-assembled protein materials for sustainable biocatalysis. During his doctoral studies\, he was awarded a STEM Chateaubriand fellowship and worked with bioinformaticians and biochemists at Genoscope in France. As an undergraduate\, Dr. Caparco studied Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of California\, Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Prashun Gorai
DESCRIPTION:A Journey from Atoms to Materials: Designing Functional Materials for Energy and Microelectronics \nTechnological developments often rely on specifically designed materials and molecules. The increasing pace of technology development\, coupled with rising energy needs and climate challenges\, requires faster approaches for materials discovery. Historically\, materials have been discovered by trial-and-error approaches that rely on chemical intuition. Designing materials with tailored properties is challenging because of the astronomical number of possible compounds and structures\, and materials behaviors that do not adhere to standard chemical intuition. \nComputations have made great strides in accelerating materials development\, but many challenges remain. We are addressing some of these challenges\, including inverse materials design and bridging the gap between theoretical predictions and real materials. In this talk\, I will share examples from our work on the computational discovery and design of functional materials\, as well as modeling of defect and doping properties of semiconductors. \n\nDr. Prashun Gorai is a research assistant professor at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) with a joint appointment at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). He obtained his bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering from IIT Madras (India)\, and his PhD\, also in Chemical Engineering\, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He was a postdoctoral fellow at CSM and NREL between 2014-2017. His research team uses quantum-chemical calculations\, high-throughput computing\, and machine learning to discover and design functional materials for energy conversion and storage\, and next-generation microelectronics. The International Thermoelectric Society awarded him the Young Investigator Award in 2022 and the Royal Society of Chemistry (Materials Horizons) recognized him as an Emerging Investigator in 2020. He is a recipient of the Chemistry of Materials Lectureship and Best Paper Award 2023.

SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Jason E. Bara
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability through Plastic Upcycling and Molecular Design of Green Solvents \nThis talk will give overviews of two relatively new research areas in the group of Prof. Jason E. Bara. First\, efforts in plastic waste depolymerization and upcycling will be discussed with a focus on progress that is being made in two particularly challenging materials: poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and polyurethanes (PU). As PVC is the 3rd-most produced plastic worldwide\, it is also very different than other commodity polyolefins including polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). PVC offers unique opportunities for chemistry (via depolymerization and functionalization) as well as solubility behaviors which enable it to be fractionated which can be advantageous and enable new applications for waste PVC\, including 3D printing. Bara’s group is also developing a new process dubbed “imidazolysis” which can break down crosslinked PU materials with recovery of small molecules. With respect to the design of green solvents\, this talk will illustrate how Bara and collaborators are utilizing molecules with glycerol “skeletons” to tackle challenges in CO2 capture (including direct air capture (DAC))\, batteries\, plastic wastes\, additive manufacturing\, and extractions of lithium and other critical materials from dilute sources. \n\nJason received a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Colorado at Boulder. He has authored more than 160 peer-reviewed research publications on the topics of separations\, ionic liquids\, polymer membranes\, and chemical process engineering. He has also been awarded 15 U.S. patents for new technologies developed in these areas. In recognition of his research\, he received the Permeance Prize for Mid-Career Excellence from the North American Membrane Society (NAMS) (2024)\, Early Career Fellow from the Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Division of ACS (2021)\, the Membranes (MDPI) Young Investigator Award (2020) and the FRI/John G. Kunesh Award from the Separations Division of AIChE (2015). Jason has also been recognized for his contributions to chemical engineering education as the 2018 recipient of the Ray W. Fahien Award from ASEE and the 2017 recipient of the David Himmelblau Award for Innovations in Computer-Based Chemical Engineering Education Award from AIChE. \nZoom Link

SUMMARY:IEEE Microsystems Boston Tech Talk: "Systems Based on Ultrasonic MEMS: Commercialization and Future Directions" with Professor David Horsley
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Prof. David Horsley \nTalk: “Systems Based on Ultrasonic MEMS: Commercialization and Future Directions” \nDate & Time: Tuesday\, 12th March\, 6 – 8pm (Eastern Time) \nLocation:  \nNortheastern University – Innovation Campus\, Burlington\n147 S. Bedford Street\nBuilding 5 Conference Hall\nBurlington\, MA 01803 \nPlease RSVP at your earliest convenience. This will be an in-person meeting. \nAgenda: \n6 – 6:45pm: Networking Dinner\n6:45pm – 7:45pm: Tech Talk \nAbstract:\nThe increasing maturity of thin-film piezoelectric materials and the MEMS manufacturing ecosystem has enabled the rapid development of sensor systems based on piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs). In this talk\, I will describe work by my research group over the last decade to develop and commercialize PMUT-based systems for consumer electronics applications\, starting with air-coupled PMUTs used for time-of-flight (ToF) range-finding and human presence sensing. These ToF sensors were commercialized by my startup\, Chirp Microsystems (now part of TDK)\, and are used today in various products such as smart-locks\, robot vacuum cleaners\, and laptops. We subsequently developed an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor based on the monolithic integration of PMUTs with CMOS that is used for biometric authentication in consumer products today. A common feature of the ToF sensor and the fingerprint sensor is that they are systems that combine MEMS\, integrated circuits\, and algorithms. The ability to realize a complete ultrasonic system on chip (SoC) opens new research opportunities in areas such as portable medical imaging systems for point-of care ultrasound (POCUS) as well as wearable ultrasonic devices. \nSpeaker Bio:\nDavid A. Horsley is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northeastern University\, where he is co-director of the Institute for NanoSystems Innovation (NanoSI)\, and an Adjunct Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California\, Berkeley\, where he is co-director of the Berkeley Sensor and Actuator Center (BSAC). Dr. Horsley co-founded several deep-tech companies\, most recently Chirp Microsystems (now part of TDK InvenSense)\, a manufacturer of MEMS-based ultrasonic sensors. Dr. Horsley was Co-Chair of the 2016 IEEE Sensors Conference\, Co-Chair of the 2017 Transducers Research Foundation Napa Microsystems Workshop\, and Co-Chair of the 2020 IEEE MEMS Conference. Dr. Horsley is an IEEE Fellow\, a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors\, is a recipient of the National Science Foundation’s CAREER Award\, the UC Davis Outstanding Junior Faculty Award\, the 2016 NSF I/UCRC Association’s Schwarzkopf Award for Technological Innovation\, and the 2018 East Bay Innovation Award. He has authored or co-authored over 200 scientific papers and holds over 30 patents.

SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Dr. Michael Murrell
DESCRIPTION:Energetic Constraints on Biological Assembly and Motion \nOn small length-scales\, the mechanics of soft materials may be dominated by their interfacial properties as opposed to their bulk properties. These effects are described by equilibrium models of elasto-capillarity and wetting. In these models\, interfacial energies and bulk material properties are held constant. However\, in biological materials\, including living cells and tissues\, these properties are not constant\, but are ‘actively’ regulated and driven far from thermodynamic equilibrium. As a result\, the constraints on work produced during the various physical behaviors of the cell are unknown. Here\, by measurement of elasto-capillary effects during cell adhesion\, growth\, and motion\, we demonstrate that interfacial and bulk parameters violate equilibrium constraints and exhibit anomalous effects\, which depend upon a distance from equilibrium. However\, their anomalous properties are reciprocal\, and thus in combination reliably define energetic constraints on the production of work arbitrarily far from equilibrium. These results provide basic principles that govern biological assembly and behavior. \n\nMichael Murrell received his BS at Johns Hopkins University and his PhD at MIT. He then had a joint postdoctoral fellowship between the Institute for Biophysical Dynamics at the University of Chicago\, and the Institut Curie\, in Paris\, France. He now runs the Laboratory for Living Matter within the Systems Biology Institute at the Yale West Campus\, as part of the Biomedical Engineering and Physics Departments. His laboratory studies the non-equilibrium properties of biological systems\, as well as designs and engineers novel bio-inspired materials. His group comprises a diverse group of experimentalists\, computational scientists\, and theorists all driven to understand some of the most fundamental questions in biophysics.

SUMMARY:Julian Gutierrez PhD Dissertation Defense
DESCRIPTION:Announcing:\nPhD Dissertation Defense \nName:\nJulian Gutierrez \nTitle:\nTowards Real-Time Safe Flight Paths for Urban Air Mobility \nDate:\n3/21/2024 \nTime:\n12:00:00 PM \nLocation: Zoom \nCommittee Members:\nProf. David Kaeli (Advisor)\nProf. Pau Closas\nDr. Evan Dill (NASA)\nDr. Natasha Neogi (NASA) \nAbstract:\nThe emergence and development of advanced technologies and vehicle types have created a growing demand for introducing new forms of flight operations. These new and increasingly complex operational paradigms\, such as Advanced and Urban Air Mobility (AAM/UAM)\, present regulatory authorities and the aviation community with the challenge of finding methods to integrate these emerging operations without significant additional risk to pedestrians and infrastructure. Predictive and autonomous risk mitigation capabilities become critical to meet this challenge. However\, urban environments experience effects that are computationally expensive to model\, limiting conventional aviation concepts\, policy\, and risk prediction tools from being effectively translated into this space. With the emergence of High-Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystems in the last two decades\, we can use these software and hardware capabilities to help bridge the gap between real-time predictive responses and modeling accuracy. \nIn this dissertation we first present a simulation framework to estimate the quality of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) performance for autonomous aircraft in urban environments. We propose a new algorithm designed for HPC to accelerate modeling the characteristic effects of dense urban canyons on GNSS\, allowing the extension of established GNSS integrity techniques into urban navigation. Additionally\, we provide a thorough validation of the simulator\, which proves high-accuracy modeling when compared to sensors in the real world. Second\, we use this simulation framework to provide situational awareness when processing the raw output of a GNSS sensor. This effort focuses on multipath mitigation\, which reduces the error in the estimated position solution. Third\, we use this simulation framework as the input into a new 4D path-planning algorithm based on an adaptation of the Bellman-Ford algorithm. HPC techniques are employed to accelerate the algorithm to produce flight paths that minimize exposure to GNSS risks. We evaluate the computational cost of satellite availability fluctuations by prioritizing events when satellite availability changes as triggers for these updates.
