Object Transport by Confined Active Fluids
Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: Active fluids, and more generally active matter, are out of equilibrium systems emblematic of biological materials, such as a cell interior or a developing multicellular organism. Chemical energy is locally converted into work that can guide their evolution through internal stresses in ways that lead to instabilities and generally rich phenomenology. Means to organize such systems to perform life-like tasks is particularly interesting...
Expecting Turbulence: Flow-informed Machine Learning for Prediction and Control
Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: Advances in data-driven and learning-based methodologies have enabled unprecedented autonomy in many engineered systems, but intelligent modeling and control of fluid flows have yet to be realized. Motivated by the enormous potential of intelligent interactions between engineered systems and fluid flows across many applications, my research seeks to bridge the gap between data-driven, computational, and experimental fluid mechanics...

Library Workshop: OrcID
ORCiD (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) is a persistent digital identifier to resolve the researcher's name ambiguity problem. Researchers are required to provide their ORCiD iD when applying for a grant or submitting an article for publication. Learn more about creating an ORCiD iD at www.iam.uiowa.edu/planter, linking your ORCiD iD to the University of Iowa, and adding your publication records from data sources (Scopus, CrossRef, etc.) to your ORCiD. Led by Carol Hollier, sciences reference...
Library Workshops: A Guide to Scholarly Publishing—from Journals to Open Access
Are you unsure which journal to publish in? Have you ever wondered how to identify and avoid predatory publishers? What is the difference between traditional publishing and open access? This workshop will provide answers to these questions and more, and you’ll learn strategies for navigating the jungle of scholarly publishing. Bring your own questions too! Presented by Kari Kozak, director, Sciences and Engineering Libraries.
