As the Iowa State Fair Queen crown was placed on Mary Ann Fox’s head in August, she realized the unique opportunity she now has: combining her reign with what she’s learning as an Iowa State agricultural engineering major to make farm life better.
When Zhuoyi Zhao, a graduate student in industrial and manufacturing systems engineering, and The Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) Student Chapter realized that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) set out to celebrate STEM – they decided food was a great way to highlight diversity.
CoMFRE held a student poster competition at 2022 Symposium and Member Meeting in October, and four graduate and undergraduate students won top poster honors.
For the past four years, Kumar Saurabh, a grad student in mechanical engineering, has focused on developing new jet atomization algorithms to accurately capture the formation of droplets and necessary physics.
Pelin Guven Geredeli, an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics and CoMFRE affiliate, is conducting two projects that hope to advance multiphase-flow discoveries.
Graduate students Hengzhou Liu and Arna Ganguly helped develop a greener process for producing hydrogen from water or biomass – and are first authors on a high-impact publication on their discoveries.
