Studies of sessile droplets provide a natural framework for modeling dynamic contact lines. We present several recent results on droplet behavior on heated substrates under the conditions when the effects of both wetting and evaporation are important. For liquids which are aqueous solutions, we investigate how the formation of electrical double ...

High-quality entangled-photon pairs are one of key resources for quantum computing and quantum information technologies. Since the observation of entangled photon generation via a biexciton from a CuCl bulk crystal, entangled photon generation mediated by the biexciton has been extensively studied. Recently, the biexciton of a CuCl thin film in ...

In many practical situations encountered in industries, there is incomplete knowledge of material properties, boundary conditions, and sources for a given material/manufacturing process. However, process monitors such as thermocouples are typically used to measure temperature evolution in certain locations to bridge the resulting gaps. Spatial g...

We consider two problems related to the propulsion offlexible surfaces in vortex wakes.First, we present a simple model of a trout swimming in a cylinderwake, which saves energy by slaloming through a vortexstreet. We find analytic solutionsand compare with previous experiments and numerics.Second, we study 'inverted drafting' in flags, in which...

Most infections are the result of a surface-attached communityofbacteria that displays many unique characteristics. Ourunderstandingis still limited, however, with respect to how pathogens arecolonizing surfaces to begin infection. It is known that thearrivalof bacteria to host tissues is often aided by self-generatedmotilityof the organism.Path...

Assessing disease risk with repeated biomarker measurements has important applications in the screening and early detection for many diseases. In obstetrics, interest is on assessing the risk of a poor pregnancy outcome (i.e., small for gestational age or preterm birth) from longitudinal imaging and biomarker data. We will begin by presenting si...

Mutations or alterations in the expression of elements of cellular signaling networks can lead to incorrect behavioral decisions that could result in tumor development or the promotion of cell migration and metastasis. Thus, mitigation of the cascading effects of such dysregulations is an important control objective. My group at Penn State is co...
