This year’s ASME TurboExpo, held in Phoenix on June 17-21, 2019, brought students and faculty from START and ExCCL to present their research findings. The papers listed below are those that were presented at this year’s TurboExpo by our students. And, for the first time, START and ExCCL joined other Penn State colleagues to sponsor a booth, as shown in the picture. Many collaborators and students stopped by the booth to hear about what was happening at Penn State.
