Berkeley students flip, float and experiment on zero gravity flight

Last week, two teams of UC Berkeley researchers had the opportunity to test their experiments — and stomachs — aboard ZERO-G’s G-Force One, an aircraft that flies in a series of parabolic arcs to mimic the zero gravity conditions of space flight. During the flight, which took off and landed at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on …

Researchers develop innovative 3D-printing technology for glass microstructures

Researchers at UC Berkeley have developed a new way to 3D-print glass microstructures that is faster and produces objects with higher optical quality, design flexibility and strength, according to a new study published in the April 15 issue of Science. Working with scientists from the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg, Germany, the researchers expanded the capabilities …

Capstone Project Profile: Breathing Facade – A Sustainable and Affordable Cooling and Dehumidification Solution for Public Schools in the Tropics

Today, public schools in tropical countries such as Singapore do not have typical cooling and dehumidification systems, like AC, installed in classrooms. The Berkeley Breathing Facade team is tackling this issue with a new way to cool down the space with minimal energy cost. This semester, we are building a model that can be used …

MicroKits Continue ME’s Hands-On Learning Tradition

When instruction suddenly switched from in-person to distance learning, ME faculty and staff worked together to plan, create, assemble, and distribute lab kits to students for their laboratory instruction.

Berkeley Researchers Use 3D Printer to Make Stronger, Greener Concrete

Researchers at UC Berkeley have developed a new way to reinforce concrete with a polymer lattice, an advance that could rival other polymer-based enhancements and improve concrete’s ductility while reducing the material’s carbon emissions. The Berkeley team used a 3D printer to build octet lattices out of polymer, and then filled them with ultra-high performance …

The Jacobs Institute’s Student Design Challenge Brings New Ideas to Address COVID-19

We are pleased to share the results of our COVID-19 Design Challenge, launched in early April as the second month of shelter-in-place orders began. Spear-headed by ME professor, Dr. Kosa Goucher-Lambert, the Design Challenge encouraged student teams to consider how design could address the current climate of the COVID-19 pandemic and the future challenges it would …

Design for Nanomanufacturing Research Group Reaches the Finals at the 2019 IET Innovation Awards

The Design for Nanomanufacturing research group, led by ME Assistant Professor Hayden Taylor, has made it to the finals of the 2019 Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) Innovation Awards. Their invention, computed axial lithography, has been shortlisted in two categories: Manufacturing Technology and Emerging Technology Design. The winners will be announced in London on …

ME PhD Student Brian Salazar Receives Best Poster Presentation Award at ICPT 2019

ME PhD Student Brian Salazar received the Best Poster Presentation award at the 2019 International Conference on Planarization/CMP Technology in Hsinchu, Taiwan. This award was for his work entitled “Die-scale modeling of planarization efficiency using segmented CMP pads: analyzing the effects of asperity topography.” Salazar is currently a Ph.D. student in ME Professor Hayden Taylor’s …

New 3D printer uses rays of light to shape objects, transform product design

A new 3D printer uses light to transform gooey liquids into complex solid objects in only a matter of minutes.

Berkeley Mechanical Engineers & LLNL Researchers Invent Real-Life “Replicator”

A new 3D printer uses light to transform gooey liquids into complex solid objects in only a matter of minutes.

ME PhD Student Hossein Heidari Wins Shark Tank Award at BASF Innovent 2018

Hossein Heidari, a PhD candidate in ME Professor Hayden Taylor’s lab, has won the $100,000 Shark Tank prize for “Best Innovative Technology” at BASF Innovent 2018. Heidari received the award for the Design for Nanomanufacturing lab’s work on “Computed Axial Lithography,” a volumetric 3D printing solution invented in the lab as a new paradigm in additive manufacturing. BASF is a leading chemical …

ME Assistant Professor Hayden Taylor Awarded Hellman Fellows Fund and Signatures Innovation Fellowship

ME Assistant Professor Hayden Taylor has been awarded the 2018 Hellman Fellows Fund and the 2018/2019 Signatures Innovation Fellowship. The Hellman Fellows Fund was established by the late F. Warren Hellman in 1995 to support substantially the research of promising assistant professors who show capacity for great distinction in their research. The Signatures Innovation Fellows …

Members in ME Professor Hayden Taylor’s Group Win Berkeley Cleantech University Prize

Members in ME Professor Hayden Taylor’s group, Liam Berryman and Lance Brockway, have won the&nbsp“Berkeley Cleantech University Prize CUP“” – a competition put on by the&nbspBerkeley Energy and Climate Institute BECI&nbspand&nbspBerkeley Energy and Resources Collaborative BERC, and sponsored by the&nbspDepartment of Energy DOE. After four months of mentorship and training from the competition’s&nbspdedicated mentors and …
