SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - The Reactor Around the Corner: Understanding Advanced Nuclear Energy Futures
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nSmall modular reactors (SMRs) and advanced nuclear technologies are gaining attention as key solutions to climate change\, energy insecurity\, and the growing energy needs of data centers. However\, the potential expansion of the global nuclear industry introduces—and in some cases reinforces—problems that technological solutions alone will not be able to fix. To help ensure that advanced nuclear energy serves the public interest rather than predominantly corporate and geopolitical actors\, we must have robust governance frameworks in place before the widespread implementation of SMRs. \n\nThis presentation will highlight the findings of the recent Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy (STPP) program’s Technology Assessment Project (TAP) report\, “The Reactor Around the Corner: Understanding Advanced Nuclear Energy Futures.” We will discuss our research approach\, in which we use the analogical case study (ACS) method to examine historical and contemporary technology parallels. By analyzing past technologies similar in form\, function\, or impact\, we can identify repeating social patterns and anticipate the social\, environmental\, ethical\, equity\, economic\, and geopolitical implications of emerging technologies.\n\nOur analysis reveals that without robust governance frameworks\, the widespread adoption of SMRs risks entrenching global disparities\, privileging private interests over public good\, overlooking local and Indigenous knowledge\, intensifying environmental injustices\, and failing to deliver on promises of local empowerment. We present policy recommendations for responsible governance of SMRs and the uranium supply chain to maximize benefits and minimize harms.\n\nThis interdisciplinary collaboration between the Ford School’s Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy (STPP) program and the College of Engineering’s Fastest Path to Zero Initiative (FPTZ) in the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences demonstrates how policy and engineering expertise can be effectively integrated to address complex sociotechnical challenges.\n\nDenia Djokić Biography:\nDenia Djokić is an Assistant Research Scientist at the University of Michigan’s Fastest Path to Zero Initiative in the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences. Her research focuses on the social\, political\, equity\, and environmental justice aspects of nuclear waste management\, advanced nuclear energy technology\, and energy systems more broadly. Dr. Djokić holds a PhD in nuclear engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley\, where she was a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management Graduate Student Fellow\, and a BS in physics from Carnegie Mellon University.\n\nMolly Kleinman Biography:\nMolly Kleinman serves as the Managing Director of the Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy program at the University of Michigan’s Ford School of Public Policy. In this role\, she has co-authored reports on equitable community partnerships\, generative AI\, facial recognition\, and vaccine hesitancy. Dr. Kleinman received her PhD in Higher Education Policy from the University of Michigan Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education\, her MS in Information from the University of Michigan School of Information\, and her BA in English from Bryn Mawr College.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Keeping Children Safe on the Road: Emerging Evidence from Pregnancy to Adolescence
DESCRIPTION:This presentation brings together two applied behavioural studies that sit at different points in the life course but share a common challenge: safety-critical behaviours often change when people move outside familiar contexts. The presentation will begin with pregnancy and seatbelt use - an area where compliance is high\, yet 'correct' use is far from assured\, and then move to adolescence\, focusing on independent mobility and safety in the context of rideshare use.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Igniting Microrobotics: Combustion-Driven Actuation at Small Scales
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe field of microrobotics is experiencing a “Cambrian Explosion” before our very eyes. Applications for these diminutive devices span several disciplines\, including healthcare\, environmental monitoring\, exploration\, and industrial inspection. However\, scaling laws fundamentally constrain the design of microrobotic systems\, particularly in how they store energy\, deliver power\, and perform mechanical work. As robots shrink\, conventional actuators struggle to generate meaningful forces. The limited energy density of microbatteries leaves many platforms tethered to external energy sources.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present a new class of combustion-driven microactuators that leverage the high energy density of chemical fuels to produce rapid\, high-power mechanical motion at millimeter scales. I will show how these actuators enable microrobots that jump far beyond their body length (2 orders of magnitude)\, perform aerial maneuvers\, traverse challenging terrain\, and drive mechanical transmissions that convert linear actuation into rotary motion. Together\, these results point toward a new class of highly energetic\, untethered microrobotic systems capable of operating where conventional actuation and power technologies fail.\n\nBiography:\nCameron Aubin is an Assistant Professor of Robotics at the University of Michigan\, where he leads the Zoetic Robotics Laboratory. He received his B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University (2014) and his M.S (2020) and Ph.D. (2023) in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell University. His interdisciplinary team develops energy-material systems that blur the line between power\, structure\, actuation\, and control\, enabling more enduring\, adaptable\, and autonomous machines. Dr. Aubin’s research interests include soft and biologically inspired robots\, microrobots\, chemical and combustion-powered systems\, batteries\, and advanced materials and manufacturing. His work has been published in several reputable journals\, including Nature and Science\, and has been featured in popular media outlets\, including CNN\, PBS\, BBC\, Wired\, and Veritasium. Recent honors include a Best Paper Award in Benchmarking and Reproducibility and a Best Student Paper Finalist Award (as PI) at IEEE RoboSoft 2025.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Solving Optimal Transmission Switching with De-energization
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOptimal Transmission Switching (OTS) has been widely studied as a way to improve the secure operation of power systems by adjusting network topology. This presentation introduces an extension of OTS that explicitly allows partial grid de-energization following contingencies. Such a formulation reflects operational situations where disconnecting a limited portion of the grid may be preferable to operating the system under severe overload conditions. The problem is formulated as an optimization model capturing switching decisions and post-contingency feasibility. A fast heuristic based on this model is used to quickly identify feasible network configurations and detect critical contingencies. Building on the same formulation\, the optimization problem is further addressed using a Benders decomposition approach with specialized mechanisms to maintain computational tractability. Results on realistic grid instances illustrate how this approach can improve system resilience by reducing contingency-induced de-energization.\n\nBiography:\nAfter graduating as an electrical engineer from ENSEEIHT (Toulouse\, France)\, Benoît spent more than 20 years at RTE\, the French transmission system operator\, where he held several positions mainly related to power system operations. He first worked as a short-term planning engineer before joining the headquarters\, where he contributed to the development and dissemination of new power system study methodologies. During this time\, he was also involved in European coordination initiatives within ENTSO-E. He later contributed to the development of open-source initiatives for power systems in collaboration with the Linux Foundation Energy. Since 2023\, he has been pursuing a PhD at TU Delft through CRESYM\, focusing on topology optimization of power grids\, with support from RTE.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Energy Needs and Opportunities in Wastewater Treatment AND In situ treatment of PFAS using adsorptive and reactive barrier walls
DESCRIPTION:IES Seminar Abstract:\nEnergy demands to treat municipal wastewater can represent up to 2% of U.S. electricity consumption\, and 40 to 60% of this demand is required for aeration to biologically oxidize organic waste and nitrify urea-sourced ammonia.  This energy consumption is ironic\, given that organics in domestic wastewater have the potential to favorably deliver more than 5 billion amps of current\, and that 50 million GJ/yr of energy are used each year to produce the equivalent amount of ammonia via the Haber-Bosch process.  In this talk\, I will explore opportunities to transform wastewater treatment plants into energy factories\, where electrochemical methods are used to direct electrons in wastewater toward synthesis of value-added products\, and advanced separation methods are used to recovery ammonia as a commodity fertilizer.\n\nCEE Seminar Abstract:\nPer and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are extraordinarily stable and widely used chemicals used to create many consumer and industrial products\, including non-stick cookware\, water-resistant textile coatings\, food packaging\, cosmetics\, semi-conductors\, and aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs).  Due to their widespread use\, PFAS have been released to the environment and have contaminated at least 9\,500 different sites in the United States.  This is a concern because even at very low concentrations PFAS ingestion has been correlated to negative health impacts\, including delayed developmental\, immune system suppression\, and cancer.  Efforts to clean up PFAS in groundwater have mainly relied on ex situ approaches\, where contaminated groundwater is pumped it to the ground surface and treated in engineered reactors using energy intensive thermal\, (electro)chemical\, ultrasonic\, or plasma-based technologies.  An emerging in situ approach is to create barriers to PFAS migration in contaminated aquifers from sorbent materials\, e.g.\, by injecting colloidal activated carbon (CAC) through wells into contaminated aquifers\, where it becomes immobilized.  However\, there remains great uncertainty in how long these sorptive barriers will prevent PFAS migration\, and if sorptive barrier amendments can be engineered to promote PFAS degradation.  In this talk\, I will present experimental and modeling results that address mechanisms controlling PFAS migration in CAC barriers\, CAC barrier effectiveness and lifetimes\, and an abiotic reaction pathway that complements CAC barriers by promoting in situ PFAS destruction.\n\nBiography:\nDr. Charles Werth is a Professor and the Bettie Margaret Smith Chair in Environmental Health Engineering in the Maseeh Department of Civil\, Architectural and Environmental Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin.  Dr. Werth’s research and teaching background includes fundamental and applied studies on pollutant fate and treatment in both natural and engineered water systems\, with applications in electro(catalytic) drinking water treatment\, in situ groundwater remediation\, and subsurface storage of carbon dioxide and hydrogen.  Dr. Werth received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M University\, and M.S. and Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Stanford University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Energy for a Sustainable Future
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n Energy is at the root of many global challenges such as climate change\, food production\, clean water\, and geo-political tensions\, but discussions of this important subject are hampered by the fact that different sources of energy are described in different units making it difficult to compare relative contributions. I find the use of a simple visualizable unit\, a cubic mile of oil (cmo) as the metric for comparing all energy sources extremely helpful. Use of cmo evokes a visceral response and dispenses with mind-numbing multipliers like billions\, and trillions or unfamiliar quantities like Watts and Btus.\n\nThe world currently uses 4 cmo of energy\, and by 2050 the demand for energy is expected to increase to over 6 cmo. Electricity consumption is expected to more than double by then\, and this demand cannot be met through measures promoting conservation and improving energy efficiency alone\, nor as I will show\, can renewable sources like wind and solar fulfill this need. Nuclear power can deliver the requisite energy but getting the public to embrace nuclear power is a herculean task. People are concerned over plant safety\, long-term storage of spent fuel\, and nuclear proliferation. I will discuss these concerns and our general fear of radiation. I will also discuss the newer nuclear designs that are walk-away safe\, use accumulated spent fuel\, as well as nuclear materials in weapons—a modern-day version of beating swords into plowshares.\n\nBiography:\nRipudaman Malhotra is a retired organic chemist\, and during his career at SRI International he specialized on energy-related issues. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and several technical monographs. In 2010 he co-authored “A Cubic Mile of Oil:  The Looming Energy Crisis and Options for Averting It\,” The book is a citizen’s guide to energy and to call for an informed public debate on energy\, arguably the biggest challenge we face. In 2005 he was named an SRI Fellow\; the highest award SRI bestows on its employees for excellence in research. In 2015 he received the Storch Award from the American Chemical Society’s Division of Energy and Fuels\, and in 2018 he was named a Fellow of the American Chemical Society

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Building a Small Hydropower Station in Mao-era China
DESCRIPTION:By the end of the 1970s\, the Chinese claimed to have built just under 90\,000 small hydropower stations across the country. This talk\, based on a chapter from an in-progress book\, explores the micro-history of a single such hydropower station. From planning\, finance\, and construction\, to labor\, operation\, and maintenance\, Professor Ghosh’s goal is to explain the political economy that enabled the Chinese to mount small hydropower projects and connect them to local grids\, thereby contributing to our understanding of subnational governance and center-local relations in Mao-era China.\n   \n   Arunabh Ghosh (BA Haverford\; PhD Columbia) is a professor in the History Department at Harvard University. A historian of modern China\, his interests include social and economic history\, history of science and statecraft\, environmental history\, and transnational history. Ghosh is the author of *Making it Count: Statistics and Statecraft in the Early People’s Republic of China* (Princeton\, 2020). He is working on a book titled *The Significance of Small Things: Hydropower and Rural Energy in China* (under contract with Stanford University Press).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Regulatory\, Property\, and Human Rights-Based Strategies for Protecting American Waterways
DESCRIPTION:Erin Ryan\, Associate Dean for Environmental Programs and Elizabeth C. & Clyde W. Atkinson Professor\, Florida State University College of Law\n\nThis analysis introduces a framework of three different strategies for protecting American waterways—the conventional regulatory approach\, an alternative property-based approach\, and a newer human rights-based approach—and reviews how the dynamic among them will be impacted by recent Supreme Court decisions impacting environmental law.  The rights of nature movement has emerged as a human rights-based approach to environmental protection\, the public trust doctrine offers a public property-based approach\, and the Clean Water Act epitomizes the more traditional regulatory approach. \n\nIn recent years\, however\, the Court issued a series of decisions that have unwound nearly a half-century of accepted regulatory practice\, limiting the reach of the Clean Water Act as a tool for protecting waterways in Sackett v. EPA\, weakening the reach of the Clean Air Act in West Virginia v. EPA\, and weakening environmental agencies more generally in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo. These cases will exact a cost for wise environmental governance under all three models reviewed here.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Rare Failures\, Public Perception\, and Automated Driving: Why Exceptional Events Shape Trust in Emerging Safety Technologies
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores the “vaccine paradox” of automated driving: why rare\, highly publicized failures of self-driving vehicles provoke intense emotional and political reactions while the far more common harms of human driving remain normalized. Drawing on risk psychology\, public-health history\, and human-factors research\, Prof. McGehee examines how visibility imbalance\, trust\, and perceptions of control shape public acceptance of emerging vehicle automation. Using real-world examples from automated-vehicle deployments alongside lessons from vaccine adoption and safety communication\, the talk argues that societal expectations for perfection in automation may obscure meaningful population-level safety gains. The presentation concludes by discussing how transparency\, responsible system design\, and careful language around driver-assistance technologies can help align public perception with evidence as automated driving evolves toward broader deployment.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Daniel V. McGehee\, is Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Iowa and Director of the Driving Safety Research Institute (DSRI) and the National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS)\, one of the world’s largest and most advanced ground-vehicle simulation facilities. For more than three decades\, his work has focused on human factors\, driver behavior\, and the safe integration of advanced vehicle technologies\, including automated driving and driver-assistance systems. Dr. McGehee’s research spans engineering\, medicine\, public health\, and transportation policy\, with projects funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation\, National Institutes of Health\, and the automotive industry. He has led over $40 million in sponsored research and authored more than 160 scientific publications addressing driver attention\, crash avoidance\, vulnerable road users\, and the design of vehicle interfaces. His work combines naturalistic driving studies\, simulation\, and field research to better understand how humans interact with emerging mobility systems. At the University of Iowa\, he holds joint appointments in emergency medicine and public health\, reflecting his longstanding interest in traffic safety as a population-level health issue.
