Collins, Announcement.Pdf
The Role of Atmospheric Turbulence on Cloud Processes Friday, May 3 12:30 PM Bowen Hall Rm 222 Lance Collins Cloud droplets nucleate on dust particles when warm, moist air rises and cools to supersaturation vapor conditions in Cornell University the upper atmosphere. The droplets initially grow by condensation until they reach a few tens of microns when coalescence takes over as the dominant mechanism for growth. Classical models in the meteorological literature assume the coalescence is predominantly driven by the differential settling of droplets of different sizes. However, the time required to reach this end stage mechanism can be much shorter than these microphysical models predict. It is believed that atmospheric turbulence could explain the acceleration of cloud formation. Turbulence impacts the droplet processes in multiple ways: (i) due to the density mismatch, droplets tend to cluster outside of vortices, increasing their collision rate; (ii) droplet relative motions are enhanced by turbulence; and (iii) turbulence increases the coalescence efficiency of droplet collisions. We will review evidence for all three mechanisms based on direct numerical simulations and experiments of droplet laden turbulence performed by us and our collaborators. Lance R. Collins is serving his second term as the Joseph Silbert Dean of Engineering at Cornell University. Prior to that he was the S. C. Thomas Sze Director of the Sibley School of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. In 2011, he was part of the team that successfully bid to partner with New York City to build Cornell Tech, which opened its Roosevelt Island campus in 2017. In his role as dean, Collins has accelerated the college’s efforts in diversity.

Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Engineering Quad - D Wing Princeton University 08544 MAEnews MECHANICAL AND AEROSPACE ENGINEERING Fall 2018 Dear Friends of MAE A new academic year is upon us and the department, SEAS and University have woken up from the mini-slumber that marks the end of summer. We welcome 19 new graduate students and are looking forward to new classes, new projects and to working with students. With this newsletter we share with you a glimpse at some of the activities of our talented undergraduate and graduate students. Also, we highlight a special award received by Professor Emeritus Irvin Glassman, which culminated in a joint party celebrating his 95th birthday where many friends and colleagues from around the U.S. and the world joined him in Princeton. We welcomed Patricia Falcone ’74 (chair of the MAE Advisory Council) to campus during which time she met with students and gave a talk on engineering and national security. The semester promises to be busy, educational and fun! Do visit us if you are in the area.

Executive Committee Meeting 6:00 Pm, November 22, 2008 Marriott Rivercenter Hotel
Executive Committee Meeting 6:00 pm, November 22, 2008 Marriott Rivercenter Hotel Attendees: Steve Pope, Lex Smits, Phil Marcus, Ellen Longmire, Juan Lasheras, Anette Hosoi, Laurette Tuckerman, Jim Brasseur, Paul Steen, Minami Yoda, Martin Maxey, Jean Hertzberg, Monica Malouf, Ken Kiger, Sharath Girimaji, Krishnan Mahesh, Gary Leal, Bill Schultz, Andrea Prosperetti, Julian Domaradzki, Jim Duncan, John Foss, PK Yeung, Ann Karagozian, Lance Collins, Kimberly Hill, Peggy Holland, Jason Bardi (AIP) Note: Attachments related to agenda items follow the order of the agenda and are appended to this document. Key Decisions The ExCom voted to move $100k of operating funds to an endowment for a new award. The ExCom voted that a new name (not Otto Laporte) should be chosen for this award. In the coming year, the Award committee (currently the Fluid Dynamics Prize committee) should establish the award criteria, making sure to distinguish the criteria from those associated with the Batchelor prize. The committee should suggest appropriate wording for the award application and make a recommendation on the naming of the award. The ExCom voted to move Newsletter publication to the first weeks of June and December each year. The ExCom voted to continue the Ad Hoc Committee on Media and Public Relations for two more years (through 2010). The ExCom voted that $15,000 per year in 2009 and 2010 be allocated for Media and Public Relations activities. Most of these funds would be applied toward continuing to use AIP media services in support of news releases and Virtual Pressroom activities related to the annual DFD meeting. Meeting Discussion 1.

The clustering is caused by the inertial mismatch between the heavy particles and the lighter surrounding fluid; vortices in the flow "centrifuge" the particles into the interstitial straining regions. The resulting nonuniform particle concentration field enhances the rate of coalescence. This may explain the rapid development of cumulus clouds under conditions that are not well described by current meteorological models. In this talk, I will review our attempts to quantify inertial clustering in our direct numerical simulations, as well as discuss recent measurements made in the laboratory and in the atmosphere by my collaborators. Professor Lance R. Collins is the Joseph Silbert Dean of Engineering at Cornell University. Prior to that he served as the S. C.

Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering An ASME Heritage Collection !2 of !20 Mechanical Engineering Heritage Collection Robert H. Thurston Collection – Cornell University Early Engineering Laboratory Devices and Testing Machines The devices in this collection, used at Cornell between 1885 and 1905, exemplify Robert Henry Thurston’s vision of the central role of the engineering laboratory in training mechanical engineers. Building on his work at Stevens Institute of Technology, Thurston fully implemented his vision at Cornell’s Sibley College of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanic Arts, which under his leadership became the largest and most influential mechanical engineering program in the U.S. Thurston’s emphasis on engineering laboratories achieved national and international recognition as the key to moving engineering training from shop to university.

Its historical importance is due to its association with Robert H. Thurston. Thurston was the leading proponent of the engineering testing laboratory as a means of giving mechanical engineering students training that would be, simultaneously practical and scientiﬁc.
