We all know it’s not “Christmas Spirit” that powers Santa’s sleigh–it’s practical engineering principals.
This free and super-fun “Santa’s Engineer” App will put your skills to the test. Help the big guy design and power the best sleigh. Your design must not only be strong enough, it must be cost-efficient enough to impress Santa. Throw in some explosions and you’ve got a truly addictive mobile app.
I’ve discussed in previous posts, many science-minded students end up choosing non-STEM related careers. Policy-makers are desperately trying to reverse this trend, but can you, as an individual (and engineer) do anything to help?
To further explore the question, I recently sat down with John Hunter, a fellow engineering blogger and science lover. What are the primary the issues holding students back in the classroom? And can you, as parent (or any kind of mentor), foster kids’ interest in science, despite institutional barriers?
John offers some fantastic insight, so dive in and feel free to offer your own advice!
For the past century, welding has been a fundamental aspect of design, and according to Andrew Davis from the American Welding Society (AWS), that isn’t going to change anytime soon.
As AWS partnered with Knovel to release our latest subject area: Welding Engineering and Materials Joining, I recently sat down with Andrew to talk about innovative welding techniques, the challenge of changing international safety standards and above all–why steel is here to stay.
