Project Description The AVS Lab is investigating how advances in machine learning can be used to enhance spacecraft navigation. Specifically, this work will study how Physics-Informed Neural Networks, Neural ODEs, and Lagrangian Networks can enable greater science returns for upcoming interplanetary missions like Lucy, Europa Clipper, and Psyche. These research...

Project Description Many applications of drop-based microfluidics have been explored in recent years, ranging from drug targeting to micro-chemical reactors. Understanding the physics of drop motion in microchannels is key to provide insights when designing such applications. This project investigates fundamental aspects of the behavior of droplets in microchannels via...

Project Description Synthetic biology has the potential to lead to new or more efficient production of medicines, fuels, and other important compounds. Crucial to the success of synthetic biology is effective standards for the storage and sharing of genetic design knowledge between researchers and institutions. This project will develop SynBioHub3,...

Project Description In this longitudinal study, your role would involve collecting and analyzing data on how influences (student backgrounds, identity, learning experiences, etc.) shape global engineering (GE) students' career and social justice aspirations. In particular, we are using critical race theory (CRT) and social cognitive career theory (SCCT) to look...

Project Description The Marshall Fire swept across Louisville, Superior, and Unincorporated Boulder County, destroying over a thousand homes. In the aftermath of the fire, affected homeowners were encouraged to come together to engage in the rebuilding process in order to extract benefits like expedient rebuilding and cost savings. Collective action...

Project Description This Building a Legacy grant will collaborate between CU Boulder's College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS) and Tuskegee University's School of Architecture and Construction Science and Management (The Taylor School). Students from both universities will pioneer a "living-learning lab" through design-build projects centered on socially and ecologically...

Project Description The Future of Work Collaboratory (FWC) at CU has two open positions for undergrad research assistants. The FWC is an interdisciplinary research effort across Civil Engineering, Computer Science, and Psychology. It is funded by the National Science Foundation. After two years of R&D and prototype testing, we are...

Project Description The project involves development web software development of an offline energy auditing algorithm to improve the energy efficiency of existing buildings. The web-based tool should allow multi-users to perform energy audit of their buildings. The student candidate for this project will be introduced and trained to use the...

Project Description This project is to explore/exploit the GPS/position engine within Android. Ideally making end result more more robust with higher integrity. The Android platform provides the majority of GPS/GNSS receivers across the world. Its integration within Android is interesting and many many applications on dependent on "position aware" data...

Project Description Software Defined Radios are an ever increasing popular topic. The advent of low cost USB radio dongles such as the USRP and BladeRF as well as tools such as GNU radio have allowed for radio development to move into the software domain. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system...
