Mechanical and Material Engineering

Ethan Krings, graduate student in mechanical engineering from Humphrey, Nebraska, holds a rubber-like “N” embedded with liquid metal droplets that themselves contain glass microparticles, Markvicka's team has improved the material's thermal conductivity while retaining its natural pliability. That could make the approach useful in engineering wearable technologies and soft robotics that can shed the excess heat produced by their microelectronics — reducing the risk of overheating — while remaining lightweight and elastic enough for practical use.

Graduate student Jordan Rosenbohm holds a flexible prototype for a smart bandage with tiny 3-D printed dagger-like needles. The clusters of needles are connected to channels that would deliver the medicine via an external pump. A new smart bandage design could eventually heal chronic wounds by getting under a patient’s skin — where an array tiny needles would deliver therapeutic drugs to the still-living but damaged tissue that needs them. Ali Tamayol and Ruiguo Yang authored the study with Nebraska’s Seth Harris, Craig Kreikemeier-Bower, Fariba Aghabaglou, Azadeh Mostafavi, Ian Ghanavati and Jordan Rosenbohm; Nebraska alumni Hossein Derakhshandeh, Alec McCarthy, Chris Wiseman and Zack Bonick; Harvard Medical School’s Dennis Orgill and Pooria Mostafalu; and Seyed Masoud Moosavi Basri of Shahid Beheshti University.
