Report summary

The 2019-2026 picture for Cornell University School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering is a 66-PI network with 68 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Engineering as the leading field (35% of slots across 44 PIs; 44 labels), Aerospace Engineering as the leading subfield (6% of slots across 10 PIs; 10 labels), and Advanced Sensor and Energy Harvesting Materials as the leading topic (3% of slots across 6 PIs; 6 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The top weighted PIs are Lawrence J. Bonassar (48.8 weighted works; Osteoarthritis Treatment and Mechanisms, Knee injuries and reconstruction techniques). The strongest pairings are S. C. Pryor and R. J. Barthelmie (57 shared works, weight 39.9). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 9 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 34.1, around Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, led by Lawrence J. Bonassar, Chung‐Yuen Hui, Robert F. Shepherd; group 2 with 8 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 48.5, around Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, Aerospace Engineering, Global and Planetary Change, led by S. C. Pryor, R. J. Barthelmie, Eberhard Bodenschatz.
