Three assistant professors from Cornell Engineering have been selected from more than 220 applicants to receive Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Program awards, which recognizes academic achievement and potential for significant scientific breakthrough.
A Cornell-led collaboration has discovered a new approach for making a lead-free antiferroelectric material that performs as well as its toxic relatives.
Active learning in Mechatronics (MAE 3780) gives students hands-on experience applying concepts and theory to solve real-world problems. Students learn as they collaborate to build robots for a competition at the end of the term.
New research finds decentralized electricity markets are prone to underinvestment in resilience to rare events like the severe winter storms that crippled the Texas grid a year ago.
Seven exceptional early-career scholars will be awarded three-year fellowships to pursue independent research in the arts and humanities, social sciences and natural sciences.
Cornell chemists have discovered a class of nonprecious metal derivatives that can catalyze fuel cell reactions about as well as platinum at a fraction of the cost, which could bring hydrogen fuel cells in vehicles and generators closer to reality.
A new Cornell study could help inform the development of offshore wind farms by providing detailed models characterizing the frequency, intensity and height of low-level jet streams over the Atlantic coast.
In the arid world of processing flour and food powders, where using water to sanitize is impossible, Cornell researchers are studying dry, superheated steam.
