Richard D. James headshot

Data Science Initiative

Distinguished McKnight University Professor, Department of Aerospace Engineering Mechanics

Research Interests:

Richard James' main area of research is phase transformations in materials - especially shape memory and multiferrroic materials - at large and small scales. This involves the development of mathematical methods for the analysis of materials at atomic and continuum scales, especially the development of multiscale methods for understanding the relation between the behavior of materials on different scales. It also involves advanced methods of bulk synthesis and characterization of new…

portrait of Professor Emeritus John Ellis

Department of Chemistry

Professor Emeritus, Department of Chemistry

Research Interests:

Research interests of the Ellis group have focused on investigation of the relatively unexplored chemistry of the elements with the objective of creating new and/or useful molecules of fundamental interest. We view the entire periodic table as our playground and delight in the discovery of previously unknown classes of compounds containing elements in rare or unprecedented oxidation states and/or ligand environments; i.e., "textbook molecules." One special emphasis in current research…

Suo Yang headshot

Data Science Initiative

Richard and Barbara Nelson Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering

Research Interests:

Dr. Yang's research interests broadly encompass the first-principles based modeling and simulation of reactive flows, including: combustion, turbulence, plasma physics, particulate and multi-phase flows, and their multi-scale interactions. The goal is to develop and utilize high-fidelity, computationally efficient predictive tools in order to: (i) gain fundamental understanding of the physicochemical processes in reactive flows; (ii) design and control advanced propulsion and power-…

Ulya Karpuzcu headshot

Data Science Initiative

Associate Professor, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Research Interests:

My research interests span physics of computing, energy-efficient computing, application-domain specialized architectures, hardware security and reliability, approximate computing. Our group focuses on how to improve the energy-efficiency of computing and how to sustain the illusion of performance scaling in the face of process-technology induced limitations.

Lana Yarosh
She/Her or They/Them

Department of Computer Science and Engineering

Associate Professor, Distinguished University Teaching Professor, McKnight Presidential Fellow

Research Interests:
Research Interests

Yarosh runs the ProDUCT (Prototyping, Design, and Usability of Communication Technologies) group. As part of the GroupLens research lab, her group is committed to the design and empirical study of social computing systems, frequently adding an embodiment perspective to these investigations (e.g., adding projection and haptics to communication systems). The group does work in a variety of contexts, with particularly notable contributions in the areas of…
