With funding from the Department of Defense, administered by the Army Research Office, the three university center is dedicated to research aimed at the design and control of smart structures. The Center's research is concerned with issues such as the coupling of elastomechanics and fluid mechanics with electro-physical influences such as piezo-electric effects, magnetostrictive effects, and electrocapillary forces. Part of the Center's research mission is to study the use large arrays of MEMS actuators and sensors to control fluids and structures in several applications settings.
