Micro-Engines - A Brief Synopsis and Update of Related Research at Duke

This seminar will discuss what a micro-engine is, the drive behind their development, and their history in the past two decades. The problems that affect micro-engines and have obstructed actual implementation will then be covered. This will be followed by an overview of what efforts have been taken at Duke to overcome these challenges, as well as the results. Finally, future research plans will then be presented.
