Collaborative Research: Coupled Explicit Thermodynamics of Plasticity - An Innovative Model for Twinning Crystals
Most metallic materials are polycrystalline in nature and behave as aggregate composites of single crystals as the basic building block. Metallic materials generally deform elastic...
Managing Uncertainty for Productive Struggle: Exploring Teacher Development for Managing Students' Epistemic Uncertainty as a Pedagogical Resource in Project-Based Learning
The research team is exploring teachers' capacity to manage student epistemic uncertainty as a pedagogical resource that supports student’s productive struggle and the develop...
Collaborative Research: In Vitro Epithelial Lubrication: Collective Motion, Mechanics, and Fluid Transport
The research supported by this grant will generate new knowledge about how human epithelial tissues function and endure damage. Epithelial tissues are the thin protective layers of...
PFI-TT: Thermal Management of Power Semiconductor Electronics
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Partnerships for Innovation - Technology Translation (PFI-TT) project is to pursue research and development that focuses on the more...
A Multifaceted Examination of the Development and Application of Antidiscrimination Laws
This study aims to develop research models to comparatively analyze the effectiveness of anti-discrimination laws, with a specific focus on the justice and legal educational system...
Collaborative Research: Isotopic Fingerprinting of Nitrous Oxide Emissions from the United States Corn Belt
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). The goal of this research is to increase the understanding of the sources an...
Collaborative Research: Paleoenvironmental and paleoecological responses to climate change in the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum
Scientific evidence shows that Earth’s climate is rapidly changing. Understanding how ecosystems respond to climate change will provide critical information to help human populatio...
SBIR Phase I: Novel Catalytic Membrane Reactor for the Production of Valuable Chemical Intermediates from Zero/Negative Value Feedstock and Waste
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to convert non-food cellulosic corn fiber, a low-value byproduct from c...
Collaborative Research: Lab-Data-Enabled Modeling, Numerical Methods, and Validation for a Three-Dimensional Interface Inverse Problem for Plasma-Material Interactions
Plasma-material interactions play a crucial role in many science and engineering applications, including nanoparticle synthesis, soot formation in combustion, and space science. Th...
3rd Enterprise and Infrastructure Resilience Workshop
The engineering systems designed today are increasingly complex and dependent on other surrounding systems. Due to this complexity and interdependence, it is often impossible to pr...
SBIR Phase I: Spatial Computing Learning System for Early Literacy Development
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is the development of a new method for children with language-based learni...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: The Effect of Corporate Bankruptcy on Urban Oil and Gas Infrastructure
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).Mass bankruptcies of energy companies have orphaned thousands of oil and gas...
Design, synthesis, and assembly of composite liquid crystal elastomer fibers
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:Soft materials that can dramatically change size, shape from two-dimensional (2D) to three-dimensional (3D), volume, and physical properties in response to ex...
MRI: Acquisition of a Modern Single Crystal X-ray Diffractometer for Research and Education
This award is supported by the Major Research Instrumentation and the Chemistry Research Instrumentation programs. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is acquiring a si...
LEAP-HI: Safety and Learning from Errors and Near Misses in the Human-Automation Interaction of Socio-Technical Infrastructure Systems
Modern socio-technical infrastructure systems operate in dynamic environments where there is a high level of interaction between human operators and increasingly autonomous technol...
Collaborative Research: Personalized Modeling of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects more than 5 million people in the US. Although the FDA recently granted approval for a disease-modifying therapy for AD, questions remain rega...
Collaborative Research: Designer Microstructures by Additive Manufacturing of Functional Emulsions
Functional emulsions are an emerging material architecture for creating highly functional elastomer composites that are soft and elastically deformable. However, techniques to cont...
Understanding and controlling low angle grain boundaries in additively manufactured metals
NON-TECHANICAL ABSTRACTAdditive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, with its ability to integrate materials synthesis and manufacturing into a single print, is attractive for a bro...
High Efficiency UV-LEDs Based on Hybrid 2D/3D Materials
The material system of aluminum-gallium-indium-nitride makes very efficient visible light emitters but still inefficient ultraviolet emitters. As a result, the ever-increasing appl...
