SUMMARY:Acoustofluidics for ultrafast mixing and personalised drug delivery
DESCRIPTION:Tuncay Alan\nMonash University \n\nAcoustofluidics for ultrafast mixing and personalised drug delivery \nAt the Dynamic Micro Devices Laboratory\, we study the interaction between nonlinear micro/nanoscale resonators and fluid media\, developing acoustically actuated microsystems. This seminar will present recent advances in these technologies\, with applications in chemical synthesis\, drug delivery\, and liquid atomization\, and their potential impact in healthcare. \nThe first part of my talk will focus on ultrafast\, high-throughput microfluidic mixers capable of high precision synthesis of nanomaterials. These mixers can homogenize solutions in under milliseconds\, at flow rates approaching 10 ml/min. Such rapid mixing enables precise control over the size and composition of the end products\, (ranging from organic nanodrugs to perovskites used in optoelectronics) achieved solely through mechanical processes without altering reaction conditions. \nThe second part will introduce a liquid atomization technology\, PALM\, and discuss how it can be used for targeted respiratory drug delivery. With its unique design and responsive operation\, PALM can precisely dial the size and dose of the aerosolised drug based on the disease\, lung capacity and breathing cycle of the patient\, using a portable easy to use device offering effective personalised treatment which is not possible with any other device. Unlike its competitors\, PALM can also control the strength and duration of the pressure waves during aerosolization and preserving the therapeutic agents. \n \n  \n\nKonuşmacı hakkında\nTuncay Alan is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Monash University in Melbourne\, Australia. He received his BSc in Civil Engineering from Middle East Technical University\, and his PhD from Cornell University in Ithaca\, New York. Before joining Monash\, he completed postdoctoral research at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands and University College London in the UK. He has also held positions as a Visiting Scientist at the Paul Scherrer Institute in 2015 and as a Guest Professor at ETH Zurich in 2023. \n  \n \n  \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Exploring new chloride materials: synthesis\, transport\, and mechanical properties
DESCRIPTION:Akira Miura\nHokkaido University \n\nExploring new chloride materials: synthesis\, transport\, \nand mechanical properties \nChlorides\, such as NaCl\, had been considered simple ionic compounds. However\, in recent years\, chlorides with diverse structures have been actively studied as functional materials such as semiconductors and ionic conductors. In this presentation\, I exhibit our recent progress on the synthesis and properties of chlorides. These include the efficient exploration of new chlorides using large-scale DFT calculations and synchrotron X-ray diffraction [1] and the effect of hand mixing on the synthesis of chloride solid electrolytes. Martensitic phase transformation of monoclinic Na3YCl6 with its low Young’s modulus in contrast to high bulk modulus is highlighted [2]. \n[1] A Miura\, M. Aykol\, E. D. Cubuk et al.\, JJ. Am. Chem. Soc. 2024\, 146\, 43\, 29637–29644 [2] A Miura and K Muraoka et al.\, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2024\, 146\, 36\, 25263–25269 \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nAbout Speaker\nDr. Akira Miura received a Ph.D. in Engineering from Hokkaido University in 2007 and carried out postdoctoral research in the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry at Cornell University and at the Institut für Anorganische Chemie at RTWH Aachen University in 2008–2010. After being appointed assistant professor at the Center for Crystal Science and Technology at Yamanashi University in 2010\, he subsequently moved to the Faculty of Engineering at Hokkaido University in 2014. Dr. Miura’s research interests include the synthesis and characterization of oxides\, hydroxides\, oxynitrides\, nitrides\, sulfides and oxychalcogenides for use in novel semiconductors\, catalysts\, superconductors\, and all-solid-state batteries. \n  \n \n  \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Stochastic Resetting of Diffusive Particles: From Single-Particle Dynamics to Many-Body Phenomena
DESCRIPTION:Gregory Schehr\nSorbonne University \n\nStochastic processes under resetting have garnered increasing attention in recent years. One of the simplest examples involves a diffusive particle whose position is randomly reset to a fixed point\, such as its initial position\, at a constant rate r. Even this basic system reveals fascinating phenomena: (i) the system reaches a nontrivial nonequilibrium stationary state\, and (ii) the mean time for the particle to reach a target becomes finite\, with an optimal resetting rate r that minimizes the search time. \nAfter introducing these intriguing features\, I will extend the discussion to a one-dimensional gas of N independent Brownian particles\, all of which are reset simultaneously to the origin at a constant rate r. Despite the absence of direct interactions between the particles\, I will demonstrate that strong correlations emerge in the stationary state at long times\, purely driven by the dynamics of resetting itself. \n  \nAbout speaker\nI earned my PhD in Theoretical Physics from École Normale Supérieure in 2003\, followed by a postdoc at the University of Saarland\, Germany. In 2006\, I joined CNRS and became a Research Director at Sorbonne Université in 2019. Since 2023\, I have also been a Professeur Chargé de Cours at École Polytechnique. My research focuses on statistical mechanics\, including non-equilibrium dynamics\, random matrices\, disordered systems or extreme value statistics. I received the CNRS Bronze Medal in 2010 and the Aniuta Winter-Klein Prize from the Academy of Sciences in 2022. \n  \n \n  \n\n  \n
