Congratulations @Zhen_Skyii on successfully defending your PhD thesis in @RiceMECH today! One of the first three members of @ricePILab, Zhen's work has given us a new understanding of the impact of surface contamination, and also how to avoid it.

Exciting news in the realm of soft robotics! Researchers at Rice University, including graduate student Te Faye Yap, have devised a predictive model for the curing time of silicone elastomers. Read further: ow.ly/CwEf50R9lvg

We show fluidic diodes made from lightweight flexible sheets, including #textiles, in a paper in @Advintellsyst published last week. Beyond simply enforcing one-way flow, they enable #logic, encoding, and rectification. doi.org/10.1002/aisy.2…

Elastomer curing speed doubles with each 10 °C increase in temperature while retaining mechanical properties! To quantitatively understand how to speed up soft device/robot manufacturing, check out our work led by @Fayeyap25 in @CellRepPhysSci: doi.org/10.1016/j.xcrp…

We always check out the creative ideas featured in the #IgNobel Prize ceremony, and several of our "research role models" have won in the past... We're excited to join them! Congrats to @Fayeyap25 and the necrobotics team! doi.org/10.1002/advs.2…

A wearable, textile-based device developed by Rice University engineers could help declutter and enhance inputs and in the case of impairments — compensate for deficiencies in visual and auditory inputs by tapping the sense of touch bit.ly/44u3Q8J bit.ly/3r6WYR8

Dusting off shelves is annoying, but it's nothing compared to keeping nanomaterials clean. Researchers @RiceUniversity have developed a new container to keep VOCs (molecules emitted from paints and cleaning projects) from building up on nanomaterials: news.rice.edu/news/2023/rice…

Glad to have gotten this nice recognition (and breakfast tacos!) this morning, thanks to @riceccd and the students who nominated me.
