A collaborative research effort by AME, the?Keck School of Medicine of USC, the?Huntington Medical Research Institute?(HMRI), and?UC Irvine?has discovered that electronic cigarettes harm blood vessels while basic cigarettes damage the heart. This research, published in the?Journal of the American Heart Association,?employed a fluid dynamics-based technique to measure cardiovascular impacts caused by nicotine exposure from e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes, using animal models. AME Professor?Niema Pahlevan?(whose laboratory was utilized for the study) explains how this technique can be used on human subjects: "...the smartphone camera captures images of the neck skin. Then an algorithm extracts vessel wall dilation from the skin vibrations recorded in the images. This dilation waveform mirrors the pressure waveform in large arteries, such as the carotid where wall viscoelasticity is minimal.” More information about this collaboration can be read in this article featured on Viterbi News. https://lnkd.in/d5qBF6RN
关于我们
Aerospace and Mechanical Engineers design complex mechanical, thermal, fluid, acoustic, optical, and electronic systems, with characteristic sizes ranging from microns to tens of kilometers. Such systems are used everywhere, from the depths of the ocean and far underground, to near-earth, planetary, interplanetary, and galactic space. At USC, the Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering (AME) Department’s faculty has adopted three major Strategic Themes to help guide the directions and enrich the contents of our education and research programs, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels: * Biodynamical Engineering: Locomotion of birds and fish, or robotic equivalents, alone, or in groups. Self assembly of complex systems. Mathematics of cancer and population dynamics. * Energy Engineering: Combustion efficiency, fundamentals of energy generation and storage. Molecular and nano-scale kinetics and reaction mechanisms. Pollutant formation, dispersal, and measurement. * Exploration Technologies: Novel aircraft and ground vehicle designs, satellites, micro-air vehicles, intra-vascular transport. Explorations enabled by new technologies in propulsion, flexible, and nano engineered materials. Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering (AME) students conduct basic and applied research within and across the usual disciplinary boundaries. AME students develop core and valuable problem-solving skills in the areas of aerodynamics, mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, materials and design. Our graduates are at the leading edge of academia and industry, tackling innovative, important and exciting challenges.

?? We were excited to be at 2024's USC Viterbi Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering career fair where our team members Becca Rogers, Senior Systems Engineer, and Tyler Presser, Staff Mission Solutions Architect, met with many eager engineering students. We were able to answer many technical and career focused questions. If you had any additional questions about Advanced Space please reach out. #uscviterbiengineering #careerfair #deliveringinnovation2orbit

In new research, vaping with nicotine found to harm blood vessels; Standard cigarettes found to impair the heart. Research featured in JAHA — Journal of the American Heart Association was done by USC Viterbi Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering Viterbi alumnus Rashid Alavi in conjunction with Niema Pahlevan and Kloner, Robert Keck Medicine of USC along with colleagues. Data collection method can be replicated by a smart-phone so in the future, one may be able to measure impact at-home. https://lnkd.in/gdAjfiFc

MS Aerospace Engineering Student at University of Southern California || BS Aerospace Engineering University of Illinois Alum ‘24
I am excited to share that I will be joining Rocket Lab as a structural analysis intern starting in January 2025 in Long Beach, California! I will be supporting the Space Systems Division in shaping Rocket Lab’s future with the brand of high-performance satellites—Photon. I am truly grateful for this opportunity to grow my technical skillset as an engineer and learn more about the space industry as a whole. I would like to thank my interviewers, Nino Dhimitri and Patrick Lee, for recognizing my skillset during the interview process. In addition, a special thanks to Vanessa Ortiz for a smooth onboarding process. I could not have done this without the support of all of my co-workers, friends and colleagues throughout my undergraduate and now graduate studies. Proud to represent the Aerospace Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as an alumni and now currently as a USC Viterbi Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering Masters student! ? #RocketLab #Viterbi #Fighton
