From new approaches for tendon injury treatment to biomass-based construction materials, Cornell Engineering’s inaugural Sprout Awards are funding unique research projects with the potential to grow partnerships across Cornell.
Researchers designed a new system of fluid-driven actuators that enable soft robots to achieve more complex motions, leveraging the very thing – viscosity – that had previously stymied their movement.
The Additive Vehicle-Embedded Cooling Technologies project at Cornell is being funded by NASA to advance the future of space exploration, including nuclear power-enabled missions.
Simplicity was a winning strategy for a trio of engineering students in the annual Cornell Robotics Competition, held Dec. 1 in the Duffield Hall atrium.
Researchers combined optical sensors with a composite material to create a soft robot that can detect when and where it was damaged – and then heal itself on the spot.
Supported by a new three-year, $600,000 National Science Foundation grant and an industry partner, Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering professor Keith Evan Green and collaborators are working on what they say is a next frontier in domestic human-machine interaction, a new category of space-making robots that people will inhabit.
Following its successful launch, a unique spacecraft course offered by Cornell’s Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering will be making its return next academic year. The course, Spacecraft Thermal Management, was piloted in the spring and included the opportunity…
The algorithms are unique in that they take a holistic approach to action anticipation, combining visual data – where an athlete is located on the court – with information like an athlete’s specific role on the team.
Rocky An ’23 proposes a theory that could solve the decades-old mystery of why astronauts’ immune systems become suppressed in space.
Cornell doctoral student Dory Peters, a student in the lab of Nikolaos Bouklas, has been selected to receive a 2022 Ford Foundation Fellowship. Peters’ proposed area of research is the development of new computational techniques that will accelerate computations for highly deformable structures, soft robotics to human-computer interaction, and solid and fluid interactions in the subsurface environment.
