Join us in celebrating Women’s History Month with a Trivia Night happening on March 30th, 5-6:30 PM in the GGB Blue Lounge.
You'll meet some friends and compete in teams answering trivia questions around our theme for a chance to win prizes!
The U-M Mechanical Engineering Department is hosting the first 3-Minute Thesis (3MT®) Competition on Friday, March 31st. This is an opportunity for graduate students to build skills in communicating their research effectively to non-specialist audiences by presenting their thesis in 3-minutes using only one slide. We invite members of the engineering community to join us […]
Title: Transport Models and Optimization Algorithms for Rechargeable Batteries Date: 03/31/2023 3:00 pm Location: 2540 GGB
Safely exploiting the mobility limits of a vehicle is an essential capability for autonomous driving in time and safety critical applications such as extreme maneuvers in military operations or high-speed collision avoidance on roads. However, the traditional approach of treating planning and control problems separately leads to overly conservative solutions and limits such exploitation. To address this gap, we propose a paradigm shift from separate to combined treatment of planning and control problems, which allows for solving both problems with a consistent understanding of the capabilities and limits of the vehicle for improving performance and safety.

Understanding and being able to predict the outcomes of complex reaction systems would be invaluable to varied scientific and engineering disciplines, ranging from enabling future energy, aerospace, and chemical processing technologies to understanding the Earth’s climate and the potential origins of life beyond Earth. Yet, unraveling and making predictions of complex reaction systems, which often proceed via ~100s of intermediate chemical species and ~1000s of intermediate reactions, are notoriously challenging tasks.
Title: Investigation of In-vivo Integument Mechanics for Device Design at the Biomechanical Interface Date: 04/07/2023 3:00 pm Location: 2540 GGB
An EQ-4B Global Hawk, one of the United States’ most advanced and expensive unmanned aerial vehicles, lost stability and crashed in 2011 because a single screw loosened. In 2016, a Union Pacific train derailed in Mosier, Oregon due to a single loose bolt. It released 42,000 gallons of crude oil into the local environment. These two events (and many others) highlight our lack of knowledge pertaining to the long-term evolution of nonlinearities and their effect on the structure’s health and dynamics.
