°ÄÃÅ¿ª½±½á¹û2023¿ª½±¼Ç¼ engineers have revamped a World War II-era process for making magnesium that requires half the energy and produces a fraction of the pollution compared to today’s leading methods. The breakthrough process, developed in the labs of Professor Alan Weimer, could vastly improve production of the strong, lightweight metal that’s used in everything from vehicles and aircraft to dietary supplements and fireworks.

On CUE sat down with Dr. Shelly Miller to talk about her research and background, as well efforts to reach gender equity within our college. And we want your input so make sure to send your ideas for who or what we should cover to cuengineering@colorado.edu .

Since the only guarantee in life is change, William Raseman is using his research to try to prepare water municipalities from being crippled by unforeseen circumstances such as floods, droughts or wildfires. The second-year civil engineering PhD student is building software programming to assess the impact of climate and environmental...

When an infectious airborne illness strikes, some hospitals use negative pressure rooms to isolate and treat patients. These rooms use ventilation controls to keep germ-filled air contained rather than letting it circulate throughout the hospital. But, in the event of an epidemic, these rooms can quickly fill up. Now, a team at °ÄÃÅ¿ª½±½á¹û2023¿ª½±¼Ç¼ has found a simple, cost-effective way for medical facilities to expand this technique to better prepare for disease outbreaks.

Vanessa Aponte (AeroEngr PhD '06) has rubbed shoulders with astronauts, designed equipment to travel into space, and worked with technology so specialized she is not allowed to talk about it. As a Lockheed Martin engineer and CU aerospace PhD graduate, she has achieved great things and is instilled with a...
