UC Davis engineering students are taking their research to orbit, building an AI-powered digital twin to track satellite battery health. The project blends teamwork, ingenuity and space-tested problem-solving, with applications reaching far beyond Earth.
For an implantable device improving outcomes of rotator cuff surgery and an IoT waste sorting system, two undergraduate engineering teams have received the Sandia Engineering Design Award for their senior design projects at UC Davis.
Engineering researchers and Proteus Space are shaking up satellite design with the first-ever real-time dynamic digital twin in orbit. The AI-enabled payload, designed in the HRVIP Lab, will model and predict spacecraft health on the fly, redefining the future of spaceflight.
UC Davis EcoCAR reached new milestones at this year's challenge, earning top awards for energy efficiency and design. From high-speed tests to teamwork under pressure, communications manager Riddhi Puranik shares how the team proved they're ready to accelerate into Year 4.
UC Davis chemical engineering Ph.D. student Rajat Goel is using supercomputing and quantum chemistry to study how hydrogen binds to uranium oxide — a step toward safer nuclear waste storage. His work could help make next-gen nuclear energy cleaner and more reliable.
UC Davis Coffee Center researchers, in collaboration with the Coffee Science Foundation, are investigating how physical defects in green coffee affect flavor. By identifying sensory thresholds for defects, their work aims to refine coffee grading standards and improve quality assessment in the coffee industry.
The regional magazine has recognized Davis-based company Elve for its pathbreaking efforts to design and produce affordable millimeter wave amplifiers. The company was founded by Diana Gamzina, a three-time mechanical and aerospace engineering alumni at the University of California, Davis.
Urban air mobility, AI-driven aerospace design and what’s next in space exploration took center stage at the second annual Northern California Aerospace Symposium, which brought researchers, students and industry leaders to UC Davis to advance aerospace research and collaboration.
In the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis, a one-of-a-kind hub for vacuum electronic devices allows a community of researchers to build upon the past to discover the future.
More than 7,500 miles separate Nepal and the University of California, Davis. That distance becomes imperceptible in a lab at Tribhuvan University in Kathmandu, the country's capital.
More than 5,500 College of Engineering alumni and friends contributed $131.55 million of the over $2.25 billion raised in UC Davis' historic Expect Greater: From UC Davis, for the World fundraising campaign.
