Architecture has often been described through its part-to-whole relationships, particularly within the Western tradition. The harmonic interplay of these relationships was historically understood as the source for beauty, justice, and truth. The value systems stemming from this ideology continue to underpin much of today’s architecture, albeit with adaptations over time. However, cities are shaped significantly by the unlikely adjacencies, intersections, and overlaps of objects vastly different in kind, origin, and scale. The lecture will introduce a series of design concepts and projects that seek to present an alternative view on the part-to-whole paradigm.

 Abstract: The field of electrochemical applications has witnessed significant advancements in recent years, and the development of designed polymer nanocomposites has played a crucial role in driving these advancements. In this presentation, I will provide a brief overview of the…

Meet with engineering, computer science and design students returning from internships for answers to your questions about when to search, how to search, how to network and apply for positions, how to use your internship as a technical elective, and how to make the most of your internship experience to obtain a job offer. The panelists will be asked questions by a facilitator for the first 15 minutes, followed by an open Q&A with the audience. Come learn more about what your peers have done to obtain internships! Questions are welcome and encouraged!
FREE pizza will be provided at the event!

Complex products and complex business relationships can’t be entirely planned in advance. There will always be uncertainty and emergent, unplanned events. One way to deal with that is to get better and better at collecting data and filtering it up to decision makers. Another is to create a system in which local groups can act independently towards an aligned goal. Starting with Frederick Winslow Taylor, much of business chose to go the first path. But, military units had already started going in the second. This Speaker Series event will discuss how that happened and why the model that the military created is often going to be a better solution for today’s complex products and business relationships.

At the heart of the transition to a zero-carbon power system is a technological paradigm shift from conventional generation to renewable generation connected to the grid via power electronics. In this context, the literature and public debate mostly focus on the variability and intermittency of renewable generation and loss of machine inertia. At the same time, the rapid and massive integration of power electronics and renewables results in significantly different power system dynamics and challenges standard operating, control, and analysis paradigms. This talk will focus on a universal grid-forming control paradigm that is compatible with a wide range of emerging and legacy power generation, conversion, and transmission technologies and enables rigorous end-to-end stability analysis of tomorrow’s complex power system dynamics. The talk will conclude with a brief discussion of challenges in control and stability analysis that need to be resolved to enable reliable and resilient zero-carbon power systems.

Over the last decade, nanotechnology has demonstrated great potential in contributing to durable and environmentally friendly concrete. This talk starts from a patented technology in which the value of coal fly ash was unlocked using a novel nano-sized material, graphene oxide (GO). This technology hinges on the use of GO in the waterglass activated fly ash to produce a “greener” cementitious binder, geopolymer.

BRR Architecture will be hosting their annual Portfolio & Resume Review for students in the afternoon of Thursday, November 9. This event will be available to all designers to join them in their office in Overland Park, Kansas or via Zoom. BRR will have a group of architects, interior designers, and graphic designers available to provide feedback to students on their portfolios. This is also a great opportunity for students to create connections with the BRR team members from each of the BRR offices nationwide! Register by following the link below for access to the zoom meeting link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/brr-portfolio-resume-review-2023-tickets-741662732197?aff=oddtdtcreator

In this talk, I will discuss new research directions along this goal, ranging from basic public-key encryption (PKE) to advanced fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), and substantial applications. Particularly, I will present the crypto basics following NIST’s current efforts in standardizing post-quantum PKE. Then I will describe how to expand the scope to achieve and improve further advanced crypto capabilities, including fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), and a compelling subset of its applications.

Ubiquitous sensors are becoming an integral part of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, and progress in this domain has witnessed exponential growth. The promise is that everyone and everything will be connected via wireless data collection, and services like healthcare will be brought to everyone, everywhere, anytime, for virtually any need.

Motivated by climate change and its recognized impact on the infrastructure, environment and human health, the Biden Administration has set an ambitious goal of getting to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Getting to net-zero emissions is a game changer for our society and has impacts on the long-term planning for all sectors of the economy. Bulk power grid decarbonization and electrification of transport have been identified as first priorities to meet those goals.

Title: AN ANALYSIS OF CYBERSECURITY EDUCATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Presenter: James Crabb, Master of Science in Computer Science, Thesis Final Examination
Chair: Assefaw Gebremedhin

This presentation will look at the architecture of Latin America and its entangled relationship to an architectural material: concrete. From material performance to aesthetic appeal, concrete permeates the urban landscape and the domestic space.
Florencia Pita is the principal of the Los Angeles-based design office Florencia Pita & Co., a creative platform dedicated to exploring architecture’s multiple capacities, from the domestic, the urban, and the landscape.

This presentation will provide an overview of the cause of microarchitectural side-channel vulnerability and will examine a few examples and how to take advantage of them. We will conclude by exploring potential strategies to mitigate such vulnerabilities and generally ensure hardware security

Chemical reactions lie at the heart of processes designed to meet our growing energy and material needs. The first step towards designing and optimizing chemical reactions involves identification of underlying mechanisms and quantification of rates. Quantum chemistry methods along with theories such as transition state theory (TST) are indispensable for this purpose and have played a pivotal role in elucidating mechanisms in recent decades.
