The Robbins prize was instigated in 2020 to recognize outstandingly talented PhD students who reflect Dr. Robbins contributions to computational science and engineering.

The students have designed and built a miniature dual-rotor, counter-rotating wind turbine capable of harvesting more energy from the wind in a smaller space. Their design, which they tested this semester in Maryland Hall’s wind tunnel, will compete in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Collegiate Wind Competition and be presented at the American Wind Energy Association’s CLEANPOWER virtual conference in June.

Rau has been awarded the Provost’s Undergraduate Research Award (PURA) for his project titled “Atomistic Simulations of Dislocation Mechanisms in Nanotwinned Ni-Mo-W Alloys.”

Frérot received the award for his thesis was on “Bridging Scales in Wear Modeling with Volume Integral Methods for Elastic-Plastic Contact.”

The four-year, $182,080 grant will provide Pittman with mentored research training and will support his dissertation work, which focuses on the role of viscosity in basic cell behavior and function.

Cristina Martin-Linares, a mechanical engineering PhD candidate at Johns Hopkins University, has been awarded the prestigious ”la Caixa” Fellowship.

Jung is the first Johns Hopkins student to receive the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Fellow Transition Award (F99/K00).

  The Johns Hopkins University Design, Build, Fly team placed 17th out of 101 universities in the 24th annual American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Design Build Fly (AIAA DBF) competition. The AIAA DBF competition challenges engineering students to design, build, and fly an unmanned, electric powered, radio controlled airplane which can best meet a…

Like many, mechanical engineering student Esteban Rivera is adjusting to a new reality caused by the COVID-19 pandemic: finishing his first year of college at home. But in addition to finishing his coursework remotely, Rivera has found another means to put his engineering skills to good use while away from campus. From his home in…

The competitive program recognizes outstanding graduate student researchers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, providing awardees with three years of financial support.

  A team from Johns Hopkins University is one of 13 invited to participate in the U.S. Department of Energy’s 2021 Collegiate Wind Competition. Wind energy is one of the most widely used alternative energy sources across the United States. The annual Collegiate Wind Competition aims to prepare undergraduate students to enter the wind energy…

Sangana was one of only 40 women selected from a pool of more than 500 applicants, representing 15 countries. As part of the fellowship, she will participate in a 12-week, paid summer internship at Bryce Space and Technology in Alexandria, Virginia.
