The 35th edition of the Robert J. Melosh Competition for the best Ph.D. paper in Computational Mechanics will take place on October 14th 2024 in Teer Bldg 203. Further information about the competition can be found on the website https://cee.duke.edu/about/awards-honors/melosh-medal/call-for-papers.
In this talk, we present a multiscale adaptive data-driven framework to simulate the behavior of complex systems. Such complex systems typically display non-linear, non-local, micro-morphic features that have challenged continuum and discrete models for over a century. We use granular materials as canonical examples of complex systems to contextualize our proposed data-driven framework, highlighting its […]
As we move forward into the fall semester and onwards to winter we would like to highlight an engaging and community-building activity called Story Circles. The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) developed Story Circles to equip participants with intercultural competency building skills, and proficiency in these skills will enable interactions across differences […]
Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are a fascinating class of materials that display soft and semi-soft elastic behavior as well as a less explored viscoelastic behavior. These materials are composed of liquid crystal molecules and polymerizing agents to form a solid that behaves as an elastomer but also like a liquid crystal. The interaction of these […]

We invite Pratt faculty & staff to join us for a Character Forward Workshop where we will learn about character education, reflect on the history of engineering ethics education, identify character traits we want to cultivate, and consider strategies for cultivating those traits inside and outside the engineering classroom.
All engineering Master's students are invited to use this weekday service to have an individual conversation with a career coach about any topic. No appointment is needed and the conversation length will vary based on the number of students waiting. Also, check out the CSPD website. There's lots to help you if office hours aren't […]

Recording large-scale brain activity patterns at cellular resolution in freely-behaving mice using current recording approaches presents several challenges. First, linear microscopy methods lack the depth penetration and optical sectioning required for deep-tissue recording, while multiphoton microscopy allows for recording neuronal activity only from a single plane or few axially-shifted planes. In addition, cellular-resolution recording requires […]
