Project Description Rust is a new systems programming language that is rapidly growing in popularity, but library support for parallel and GPU-enabled scientific computing remains limited. As compared to the status quo languages of C, C++, and Fortran, use of Rust creates the opportunity to make scientific software more accessible,...

Project Description The McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica is a polar desert that contains many glacial meltwater streams that flow in the summer. Perennial microbial mats composed of cyanobacteria and diatoms are freeze-dried in the winter and begin to grow once there is flow. These microorganisms in these mats are...

Project Description Stable sources of time have made navigation systems like GPS possible. Navigation, global transportation, the power grid, etc, all depend on precise sources of time to keep the modern world synchronized. In fact, GPS itself is often used to provide this synchronization. In recent years, research into alternative...

Project Description In connection with NTIA/ITS (National Telecommunications and Information Administration/Institute for Telecommunication Sciences) we are collecting LTE and 5G NR cell phone radio signals in the Â鶹ӰԺ area and CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) signals in the Denver area. The purpose is to study spectrum usage and to devise...

Project Description Most people have tried to solve Rubik’s cube. In this project we will examine what happens if the colored faces of the cube get replaced with colored quantum particles. If the colored quantum particles are Bosons (particles that stay the same when you swap their positions) then solving...

Project Description Astronauts on long-duration missions experience extended periods of time between their initial training and when they are expected to perform mission-critical tasks. Virtual reality may enable continued training throughout the transit periods of a mission, and could even provide a countermeasure to cognitive deficits associated with time in...

Project Description Students joining this project will learn about modern wind turbines and the controllers needed to yield high performance. Advanced control algorithms play a key role in maximizing the power production of modern wind turbines. Thereby, several hard constraints like a maximum rotor speed or blade loads must not...

Project Description In this research effort we aim to assess the engineering students’ cultural wealth at three selected institutions (Â鶹ӰԺ, James Madison University and Angelo State University) and to understand how engineering students’ personal values relate to beliefs about engineering. Findings from this research will tremendously assist...

Project Description Student will work with the Hannigan Lab to develop and refurbish air and soil quality environmental monitors which use low-cost sensors to measure soil and air quality indicators in rural high schools in Colorado. Student will be working with low costs sensors, embedded systems and we based data...

Project Description Prof. Crimaldi runs the Ecological Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, where we use a combination of experimental and numerical approaches to study fluid stirring, mixing, and reactions, and to investigate how organisms have evolved and adapted to opportunities and constraints associated with their physical environment. We have a particular interest...
