2023 Complex Active and Adaptive Material Systems Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar
Abstract
ARO PO(s): Dr. Dawanne Poree, (dawanne.e.poree.civ@mail.mil) Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar Complex Active and Adaptive Material Systems: Optimizing the Synergy between Architecture, Non-Equilibrium Processes, and Materials Gordon Research Seminar: January 28 Ð 29, 2023 Gordon Research Conference: January 29 Ð February 3, 2023 Ventura, CA Chair: Nicholas L. Abbott, Cornell University The Gordon Research Conference / Gordon Research Seminar on Complex Active and Adaptive Material Systems will build a uniquely cross-disciplinary community of researchers, with the common aim of exploiting the power and complexity of non-equilibrium processes and architecture material systems to forge the new generation of compliant machines that can adapt to their environment. The objective of this year s meeting is to bring together physicists, chemists, computer scientists, and engineers at the forefront of materials science, complexity science, and process control will discuss novel routes for capitalizing on the vest design space afforded by the synergy between soft materials, non-equilibrium processes, and structural design across nano- to macro-scopic length scales. By re-examining what is conventionally considered a machine, we will exchange perspectives on employing advanced materials, theory, modeling, and manufacturing to the creation of compliant material systems that process information, self-regulate, act on their environment, adapt shape, and harvest energy so as to revolutionize next generation of soft robotics, environmental sensors, smart structures, and adaptive surfaces. The aim of our GRC and GRS is to convene this diverse group of people to generate ideas to bridge interdisciplinary boundaries and to establish an innovative community at the forefront complex active and adaptive material system research.
