Researchers from CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ will fly drones into severe storms this spring and in 2020 in one of the largest and most ambitious drone-based investigations of meteorological phenomena ever.
Twenty-five YOU’RE@CU Undergraduate Research Students will present their work in a poster session from 5-6 p.m. on April 29 in the Engineering Center lobby.
Mechanical engineering capstone teams working with QL+ had two primary aims: making an impact on a wounded veteran’s life and putting mechanical skills to the test. They designed a luggage carrier device for wheelchair users and a disabled swimmer lift system.
CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ engineering students are finalizing an infrared imaging system that will allow a user to monitor subsurface features in wind turbine blades, an invention that could make wind turbine repair safer, faster and more cost-efficient.
Researchers at BioServe Space Technologies are developing a system to test heart function in microgravity.
Associate Professor Corey Neu of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ is working with colleagues at CU Anschutz to detect early osteoarthritis, allowing younger patients to seek treatment earlier and possibly ward off the most severe measures including joint replacement.
CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ researchers are taking a deep dive into the realm of autonomous submarines through a Small Business Technology Transfer contract sponsored by the Office of Naval Research.
Researchers working together across the University of Colorado system are developing a technique that would quickly and easily remove antibiotic-resistant bacteria in dentistry and other potential applications.
U.S. intelligence agencies take in a tremendous amount of data every single day. Some of the data is conflicting. Other bits are unrelated. Their job is to comb through it all for details that, when added together, create a clear image of what is actually happening. It’s a huge effort that CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ researchers are attempting to make easier through artificial intelligence and natural language processing.
Faculty at the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ are beginning interdisciplinary research that could one day bring lossless power transmission lines, quantum computing and levitating trains closer to reality in everyday life.
