From undergrads to postdocs, students spent their summer on the Rice University campus in a mechanical engineering program in Nonlinear Dynamics of Coupled Structures and Interfaces.
U.S., Italian researchers test 'proprioceptive' feedback with skin-stretch device.
He has received $5 million grant by the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) to research personalized computer models to predict surgical outcomes for bone-cancer patients.
“We wanted to create an artistic exhibit that shows the real-time position of the sun and moon, connecting their locations to the location of the user. We wanted to bring people closer to the sun and moon.”
Drew Petty and Kelly Kidder are the 2017 recipients of the RCEL Leadership Award and the Parks Prize, respectively.
Rigging standard dumbbells to keep a user from getting hurt during a solo workout is pretty smart. So the Rice University students who invented the system call themselves “Smart Bells.”
“Robotics and manufacturing are core to mechanical engineering. I want our department to contribute to this national initiative for robotics R&D, education and training.”
Five of the nine Rice University faculty members named to the Clarivate Highly Cited Researchers list for 2016 are in the George R. Brown School of Engineering, and three of the others have joint appointments in engineering.
