    Each semester the Mechanical and Aerospace En-gineering department organizes seminars under the sponsorship of the Graduate Seminar Series and the Missouri S&T Academy of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineers (AMAE). One of the purposes of the seminar series is to broaden our students academi-cally and to aid in their professional development by providing another connection with the world of indus-try, business and research. These seminars consist of exceptional speakers whose research spans the range of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering disci-plines. Through these seminars we seek to expose our faculty and graduate students to a scale of topics in areas both related to and complementary of those areas investigated in the department.

    September 18, 2014 - Dr. Richard D. Gould, “An Application of Thermomagnetic Convection for Thermal Management of Electronic Systems,” Professor and Head, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina.

    September 25, 2014 - Dr. C. P. van Dam, “Wind Energy: Today, Tomorrow,” Warren and Leta Giedt Endowed Professor and Chair of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Director of California Wind Energy Collaborative, University of California, Davis, California.

    Graduate Seminar Series

  • Dr. Xian Huang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering in Missouri University of Science and Technology. He is working on develop-ing epidermal and transient electronics for biophysical signal detection, drug delivery, and implantable monitoring. He conducted his postdoctoral research in Prof. John A. Rogers’ group in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) from 2011 to 2014. He graduated with a Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from Columbia University in 2011. He holds B.S. and M.S. degrees in Measurement & Control Technology and Instrument from Tianjin University, Tianjin, China. In 2011, he received Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Gold Award from Diabetes Technology Society for his innovative work in developing implantable affin-ity glucose sensors for diabetes management. He also won best student paper award in the IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems in 2009. He is the author of 30 peer-reviewed journal papers and 16 proceedings. His research interests focus on developing biomedical devices for diagnosis, treat-ment, and monitoring of various diseases or facilitating people’s daily activities. These devices adopt formats that are inspired by the biological discoveries and can be integrated with human bodies in highly effective manners. One area investigates flexible biosensors capable of conformal attachment on human skin with optimized stretchability that adapts to skin motion. Another area exploits bioresorbable devices that are made of biodegrad-able materials and can dissolve away in biofluids after completion of their functions.

    Dr. Jonghyun Park is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aero-space Engineering at Missouri University of Science and Technology. Prior to this, he spent three years as a research scientist and two years as a post-doctoral research fellow in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He was a project thrust leader at the GM/UM ABCD (Advanced Battery Coalition for Drivetrains). He finished his Ph.D. in the same department at the nanostructure laboratory in 2009. He spent 5 years with Hyundai Heavy Industry after finishing his B.S. and M.S/ from Seoul National University in South Korea. He is the author of 24 peer-reviewed journal papers, six proceedings, and two magazine chapters. He was recently involved in an NSF I-Corps program as an Entrepreneurial Lead (2013). He has received recognition from the GM/UM ABCD institute (2011), an NSF Grant for a Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Conference (2009), an Outstanding Research Award from Hyundai Heavy Industries (2004), and Seoul National University Superior Academic Performance Scholarship (1998-1999).

    His research focuses on the nano-/micro-mechanics of materials for application into energy storage systems and advanced nanomaterials such as nanodevices and biomedi-cal systems. His research efforts have related to: energy storage systems focused on ‘Li-ion battery degradation’ and ‘advanced Li-ion batteries’, and mathematical descriptions of problems related to advanced nanomaterials such as electrowetting, self-assembly of nanoparticles, interaction of dendrimer nanoparticle with lipid bilayer, and mitochondria morphology. His research is based on theoretical and multiphysics/multiscale modeling coupled strongly with experimentation.
