Just Deserts: Engineering for All, Everywhere
2019 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE), 2019Work in Progress: When we talk about inclusion, we often neglect geographic constraints. Akin to a food desert, education deserts exist in the United States and affect the participation of students in higher education. Accessing an engineering education program is not always possible for placebound students if they are far from engineering programs ...

Materials: handmaid and master of all engineering
Interdisciplinary Science Reviews, 1997Abstract In his Presidential Address to the 1996 AGM of The Institute of Materials the author argues that materials science should be recognised as the foundation on which the other engineering disciplines stand. Without advances in materials, many of the technological breakthroughs in industry sectors as diverse as electronics and aerospace could not ...

Where have all the engineers gone?
Education + Training, 1998The engineering industry is facing a shortage of suitably educated graduates for the future. In order to find reasons why and how this problem could be overcome, a series of related investigations has been carried out by academic staff and undergraduates. The investigations covered a wide age range from young schoolchildren to final year undergraduates.

Dynamics of Architecturally Engineered All-Polymer Nanocomposites
ACS Nano, 2018We present nanocomposite materials formed by using glassy star-shaped polymers as nanofillers and dispersing them in soft matrices. The resulting "architecturally engineered" polymer nanocomposites structurally reside between the linear homopolymer blends and the conventional polymer nanocomposites with inorganic fillers, inducing reinforcement, which ...

Putting it All Together: Black Hole Engines of All Sizes
2012This chapter attempts to summarize what we know, and do not know, about how black hole engines of all known sizes operate. It is meant as a companion chapter to the first four, but written with the benefit of the remaining eleven. The goal is to unite black hole theory and observations to present a broad, if incomplete, picture of black hole engines in

The all-in-one pump, compressor and engine
World Pumps, 1999Abstract What has 6 pistons, 12 cylinders, just 7 internal moving parts, and can work as a pump, a compressor or an engine? Well, according to Los Angeles inventor Eddie Paul, the answer is the CEM (for Cylindrical Energy Module) Rotary Pump and Engine.
