Developing Intelligent Automation and Robotics for Smart Manufacturing Systems
Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: The current manufacturing paradigm is shifting toward production systems that demand significantly greater flexibility and adaptability. To achieve this objective, new system-level control strategies must be developed to control and coordinate different components on the shop floor. I will present our recent approaches to enhance flexibility and adaptability of manufacturing systems across multiple layers of automation. I will begin...
Particle Motions in Turbulence
Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: Our work is motivated by the need to understand and predict turbulent particle-laden flows across a range of environmental and industrial applications. In this talk, we consider a relatively canonical yet challenging experimental flow designed to be accessible to direct numerical simulation. A spherical particle in a turbulent boundary layer undergoes complicated particle-wall and particle-turbulence interactions. Particles with...
