The University of Texas at Arlington received a $321,890 CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Computing and Communication Foundations (CFDA 47.070 - Computer and Information Science and Engineering) beginning June 1, 2026, and concluding May 31, 2031. This project grant supports the development of interactive sensor-driven tools and a sensing platform designed to enable observation, measurement, and documentation of material behavior during preparation and processing. The core deliverable is a low-cost rheometer that measures material viscosity by recording pressure signals as samples are drawn into and expelled from a tube, combined with computational analysis tools that compare, group, and track material changes during fabrication processes such as mixing, setting, and curing. The project advances hands-on science and engineering education by creating tools that capture and organize rheological measurements into interactive maps, facilitating the documentation and replication of material recipes—knowledge traditionally communicated through trial-and-error methods. By making these preparation processes easier to study and communicate, the initiative strengthens training opportunities for students, educators, and community makers in advanced manufacturing, creative technologies, and material development. The platform targets viscous materials used across diverse applications including inks, gels, pastes, slurries, emulsions, and suspensions employed in crafting, food preparation, and advanced manufacturing contexts.Federal Grant Award Summary
