Project Description The Bioastronautics Laboratory in the Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences is conducting experiments to explore how humans and autonomous systems can best team up to address the challenges of deep space missions. As part of these experiments, we have developed a computer interface that simulates what remote...

Project Description SBOLCanvas is a web-based application that can create and edit genetic constructs using the SBOL data and visual standards. SBOLCanvas allows a user to create a genetic design visually and structurally from start to finish. It also allows users to incorporate existing SBOL data from a SynBioHub repository...

Project Description The Neuromechanics lab combines ideas from neuroscience, babyÖ±²¥apps and biomechanics to understand the costs and rewards underlying movement control. Using modeling, robotic interfaces, and virtual reality, we try to reverse engineer how the brain selects and controls movements. The investigations provide insight into the interplay between the neural...

Project Description At the Emergent Nanomaterials Laboratory (ENL) we work at the forefront of materials research on exciting new applications for polymeric soft materials. We are currently working with a class of biodegradable materials called cyclodextrins, which are made of glucose molecules linked together into a cup-shaped ring. Cyclodextrins are...

Project Description Legacy pipelines made of cast iron, wrought iron, and bare steel are responsible for a disproportionate number of gas leaks in the United State’s infrastructure system. Many systems have exceeded their intended design life with increasing vulnerability to failure. The Center for Infrastructure, Energy and Space Testing (CIEST)...

Project Description US natural gas pipeline infrastructure has been serving the nation for decades, providing critical services and resources for energy flow. Many systems have exceeded their intended design life with increasing vulnerability to failure. The Center for Infrastructure, Energy and Space Testing (CIEST) is leading an international project to...

Project Description The Center for Infrastructure, Energy and Space Testing (CIEST) houses a large 400 g-ton centrifuge (the 2nd largest in the US). This centrifuge has recently been upgraded with a shake table so that can input scaled earthquake motions into a scaled model of soil-structure systems. Additional upgrades include...

Project Description A Human Landing System must robustly provide for the environmental and metabolic needs of the crew from the point of departure from Gateway, throughout the surface mission and until their return. Specifically, the Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) must provide a breathable atmosphere, potable water, food...

Project Description We are investigating how sanitation systems can be adapted to better meet household needs and preferences in rural Peru. We are using interviews and surveys to better understand benefits and aspirations, including how those related to social well-being, are tied to sanitation. The DLA will work with a...

Project Description Many applications of drop-based microfluidics have been explored in recent years, ranging from drug targeting to micro-chemical reactors. Understanding the physics of drop motion in microchannels is key to provide insights when designing such applications. This project investigates fundamental aspects of the behavior of droplets in microchannels via...
