ASU Research Computing is collaborating with Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) and Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center to host a free, four-day, hands-on Big Data summer bootcamp for students, faculty members and staff on Monday, June 4, 2018, to Thursday, June 7, 2018.
In April 2018, Fulton Student Organizations hosted the annual Student Organization Awards and Recognition (SOAR) Ceremony to recognize the accomplishments of outstanding Fulton Student Organizations.
Kristina Halona, Antares Systems Engineering Lead at Orbital and former American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) Phoenix board member, served as the keynote speaker. Approximately 100 student organization leaders and supporters attended the event.
See who our 2017–2018 winners are and read about their accomplishments.
Learn methods for understanding complex networks by examining the processes within networks spanning biological, traffic and the brain in this talk with Ambuj K. Singh, professor of computer science at the University of California, Santa Barbara, hosted by Assistant Professor Hanghang Tong.
Last week, the Fulton Schools Career Center hosted our annual Spring Career Conference. The day was filled with job search presentations, a panel, networking bingo and pizza, one-on-one rapid résumé reviews and an opportunity for international students to hear from an immigration attorney.
Learn about the multiplicity required to design the energy grid of the future through three case studies. Andrea A. Mammoli, Director of the Center for Emerging Energy Technologies at the University of New Mexico, talks about the evolution of the grid and how the distribution feeder holds the key to these changes.
Seminar: Building the Grid of Tomorrow: A cross-disciplinary bottom-up approach
Thursday, May 24, 2018
10 a.m.
Santa Catalina Hall (SANCA) 151, Polytechnic campus [map]
The 21st-century grid will evolve from pre-21st-century to one that relies primarily on a connected but decentralized architecture. The distribution feeder will change the game: from a system delivering energy to end users to becoming one that manages the local generation, consumption and storage.
Three case studies will be presented to illustrate the multiplicity of disciplines required to design such a grid.
Andrea Mammoli is a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of New Mexico and Director of the Center for Emerging Energy Technologies, an organization within the School of Engineering dedicated to research on the integration of distributed energy resources on the electricity grid through system architecture and controls. Mammoli has been active in the field of distributed energy systems since 2005, in the context of optimization and controls leading to better economics and enhanced resilience. These projects include solar-assisted HVAC in commercial buildings, building-scale energy storage, distribution-level PV and battery systems and microgrids.
Mammoli conducts research in collaboration with the Electric Power Research Institute, Sandia National Laboratories and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, among others. He obtained a doctorate in mechanical and materials engineering in 1995 from the University of Western Australia and was a Director’s Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory between 1995 and 1997 in the Energy and Process Engineering group. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications and was the recipient of numerous awards including the 2011 AEE Energy Educator of the Year.
The seminar is free and available via Adobe Connect.
With the exponential increase in energy consumption globally, one of the greatest challenges is finding improvements to sustainable and affordable energy networks that already exist. At this seminar, Amin Salehi-Khojin of the University of Illinois at Chicago will discuss breakthroughs in the field of energy conversion and storage systems.
Energy Conversion and Storage in 2D Material Based Systems
Tuesday, May 22, 2018
10 a.m.
Santa Catalina Hall (SANCA) 151, Polytechnic campus [map]
World energy consumption is projected to more than double by 2050 and to more than triple by the end of the century. Incremental improvements in existing energy networks will not be adequate to supply this demand in a sustainable and affordable way.
In this talk, Salehi-Khojin will overview recent research on structure-property-processing correlations in two-dimensional materials that resulted in breakthroughs in energy conversion and storage systems. Specifically, he will discuss
Amin Salehi-Khojin is an associate professor in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He received his doctorate in mechanical engineering from Clemson University and completed four years of post-doctoral studies in the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2008-2012).
His research mainly focuses on the synthesis of advanced materials for applications in electrochemical systems including CO2 conversion and lithium-air batteries. He is a co-author of more than 70 journal publications and co-inventor of 10 patent application. His research has been featured in more than 2,000 news releases including Times of London, Guardian, Forbes and MIT Technology Review. He has been cited as one of 100 leading global thinkers in 2016 by Foreign Policy Magazine.
The seminar is free and available via Adobe Connect.
Are you an undergraduate or recent graduate interested in a scientific research experience with the Department of Energy?
The Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships (SULI) program is now accepting applications for the Fall 2018 term. During this 16-week program, you will research under the guidance of laboratory staff scientists or engineers on projects supporting the DOE mission. Each DOE facility offers different research opportunities, and on the application, you may select your top two choices.
Have you recently started or will you soon be beginning your summer internship or first full-time professional position? You’re probably excited and maybe even a bit nervous. Relax! You are ready. You can do this. Consider the following recommendations and develop your plan to get off to a good start.
Bin Mu, an assistant professor for the School for Matter, Transport and Energy of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering, has a research opening for Fulton Undergraduate Research Initiative (FURI), Master’s Opportunity for Research in Engineering (MORE), Honors Research students and volunteer students regarding the design and prediction of materials’ structure-property relationships by machine learning/data mining.
The project is to develop a machine learning /data mining code for developing structure-property relationships of porous materials, which can be used in gas separation, CO2 capture, and water treatment applications.
The Class of 2018 did an excellent job of engineering their mortarboards and hardhats at the Spring 2018 Fulton Schools Convocation ceremony! So many of you put in a lot of hard work, making it difficult to narrow it down to our top three.
And the winners are…
