Cornell's Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering hosted the first-ever PyAnsys Codefest in Upson Hall September 16 and 17. The event drew 70 student attendees and was a great success. Read more
The algorithms are unique in that they take a holistic approach to action anticipation, combining visual data – where an athlete is located on the court – with information like an athlete’s specific role on the team. Read more
Rocky An ’23 proposes a theory that could solve the decades-old mystery of why astronauts’ immune systems become suppressed in space. Read more
Cornell doctoral student Dory Peters, a student in the lab of Nikolaos Bouklas, has been selected to receive a 2022 Ford Foundation Fellowship. Peters’ proposed area of research is the development of new computational techniques that will accelerate computations for highly deformable structures, soft robotics to human-computer interaction, and solid and fluid interactions in the subsurface environment.
