Conferences

This weekend, a large IMG contingent will set off for Hilton Head 2010, A Solid-State Sensors, Actuators, and Microsystems Workshop.  Held every two years in Hilton Head, SC, the workshop is the premiere meeting of microsystems companies and researchers in the Americas.  Professors Mark Sheplak and David Arnold are traveling to the conference, together with a number of students and post-docs.  Among those presenting posters are:

Tai-An Chen recently presented his work at the 48th Annual AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeeting in January 2010 in Orlando, FL. Tai-An presented a paper entitled "Optical Miniaturization of a MEMS-Based Floating Element Shear Stress Sensor with Moiré Amplification" 

Vijay Chandrasekharan recently presented his work at the 48th Annual AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeeting in January 2010 in Orlando, FL. Vijay presented a paper entitled "Effect of Dynamic Pressure on Direct Shear Stress Sensor Design."

Chris Bahr and Dr. Fei Liu recently presented their work at the 157th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America in Portland Oregon. Chris' talk was entitled Analysis of Coherent Power Techniques, and Dr. Liu's talk was Acoustic Energy Harvesting Using an Electromechanical Helmholtz Resonator.

Today, Drew Wetzel is presenting a paper at the 39th AIAA Fluid Dynamics Conference in San Antonio, TX entitled "An Experimental Study of Circulation Control on an Elliptic Airfoil."

Sheetal Shetye and Ilan Eskinazi will be presenting a poster at MEMS 2009 in Sorrento Italy entitled, "Part-to-part and part-to-substrate magnetic self-assembly of millimeter scale components with angular orientation"
