Antibiofilm Polymer Surfaces Using the Additive Manufacturing Process Dr. Hideyuki Kanematsu Abstract: This study explores the development of antibiofilm polymer surfaces utilizing advanced additive manufacturing techniques, including Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), VAT polymerization, and extrusion processes for materials such as polypropylene (PP). The research investigates how these manufacturing methods can influence the surface properties of polymers, […]

A Novel Approach Using Diels-Alder Click Chemistry to Engineer a Cartilage-Mimetic, Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Laden Hyaluronic Acid-Collagen Hydrogel Rabia Fatima, M.S. Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating joint disorder affecting over 32 million adults in the United States. Current OA treatments are limited by short-term effectiveness and an inability to repair large defects. Therefore, a

Experimental Investigation of the Roles of Non-oxidative Species in Plasma-based Water Treatment Chiagozie Chukwukwute Poly -and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of toxic non-oxidizable compounds that are used in the manufacturing of many consumer goods. While plasma treatment has demonstrated efficacy in degrading PFAS into shorter chain compounds, the conditions required for complete mineralization

Prashant Athavale Clarkson University Will present a talk titled: Denoising and Inpainting of Noisy Grain Orientation Maps Abstract:  Crystallographic orientations can be measured using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) based techniques, such as Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). The orientation data thus obtained may contain noise and missing data.  There are several methods to restore the orientation data. The restorations from these methods

Aurabinda SwainPostdoctoral Researcher – Clarkson University Will present a talk titled: Numerical Model for Simulating Melt pool Dynamics, Phase Change and Microstructure Evolution for laser powder bed fusion process. Abstract:  Laser-based additive manufacturing is rapidly evolving, but achieving optimal mechanical properties and defect-free products remains a significant challenge due to the high-energy density of lasers and
