Many congrats to a truly bright young scientist Devashish Gokhale and great collaborator!

The AE School was honored to welcome Professor Subra Suresh who delivered the Gebhardt Distinguished Lecture. His talk discussed pathways to unprecedented mechanical, functional, and electronic properties of materials for a variety of applications. 🍃b.gatech.edu/3QoYYOh

Just visited Fort Valley State University, the #1 public historically black university in Georgia, with fellow Georgia Tech faculty Patricia_Stathatou, C. Aidun, U. Egertsdotter! Truly impressed by the ambitious students and top-notch facilities. We're excited to strengthen our

Yeast-containing hydrogel capsules could be used to remove lead from contaminated water. “The fact that the yeast themselves are bio-based, benign, and biodegradable is a significant advantage over traditional technologies,” Patricia Stathatou says. mitsha.re/Xo9v50RJIVO

This is how life on Earth works: what goes around, comes around — we all drink toilet water. Instead of treating dilution as the solution to pollution, close the loop. It’s our ticket to the stars and a sustainable prosperous Earth.

Transforming #waste yeast to effective #biofilters using simple #mechanics (among other cool interventions)!

This month's Scientific American Scientific American talks an unusual topic: cracks! scientificamerican.com/article/how-th…

My view is that the integration of material physics / microstructural insights into fracture mechanics models sometimes can be tricky. Crossing the bridge of the continuum world to the material physics world (and vice versa) requires careful consideration to avoid violating the

Friyay at the Instron 😎 … before the cool guys Daryl Yee Carlos M. Portela virtually showed up.

Every #crack tells a story too! 😍

How Can We Achieve Decentralized, Low-/Zero-Waste Supply Chains? 🌍 We envision a future where the engineering mechanics community aligns closely with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Key to this vision are several key ingredients: democratizing rapid mechanical
