Dr. Ravikumar Gelli’s research on securing critical energy infrastructure and enabling trustworthy infrastructure for clean energy resources has gained national interest as recognized by his National Science Foundation (NSF), Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA), and DOE Cybersecurity Energy Security and Emergency Response (CESER) federal and state-funded multi-million dollar research grants ($3.6M+ including state and federal funds and cost-share).
During COVID-19, every activity has gone through changes and adaptations, Iowa State’s Society of Women in Engineering (SWE) is no exception to that. But SWE has found a way to continue to offer K-12 STEM outreach, utilizing the unique tools of technology.
Learning communities help students integrate into college life and make long-lasting relationships, not only with their peers but also with faculty, staff and mentors. Learning community awards recognize some of the advisors who help make the Iowa State University learning communities possible. Two Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECpE) faculty members were recognized this …Continue reading “ECpE’s Daniels and Mina recognized for years of service with Learning Community Awards”
“Predicting breakup is hard to do.” Those are the words of Professor R. Dennis Vigil, an Iowa State University chemical engineering professor. What he’s talking about is the understanding of a vexing research issue: How immiscible droplets of liquid suspended in another liquid (think oil and water) break apart when agitated. It is this knowledge that …Continue reading “CoMFRE tackling a vexing droplet research issue with newly designed apparatus”
