I've added some powerful new technology to my shelf, to help engineering students who aren't yet confident in their major selection: a proper sorting hat. This one doesn't send you to Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, or Ravenclaw; rather, it helps you decide between Aero, BME, etc. This supplements my special Magic-8 ball, which focuses one's energy and considers all of the engineering majors. ____ Disclaimer: This is for entertainment purposes only.

USA: E-Tattoos: Toward Functional but Imperceptible Interfacing with Human Skin "This review article offers an exhaustive exploration of e-tattoos, accounting for their materials, structures, manufacturing processes, properties, functionalities, applications, and remaining challenges. We begin by summarizing the properties of human skin and their effects on signal transmission across the e-tattoo-skin interface. Following this is a discussion of the materials, structural designs, manufacturing, and skin attachment processes of e-tattoos. We classify e-tattoo functionalities into electrical, mechanical, optical, thermal, and chemical sensing, as well as wound healing and other treatments. After discussing energy harvesting and storage capabilities, we outline strategies for the system integration of wireless e-tattoos. In the end, we offer personal perspectives on the remaining challenges and future opportunities in the field." https://lnkd.in/gWw45nnN

Join Dr. Eric Urruti, Head of R&D, Coating & Adhesives, and Head of R&D Fiber Optic Materials & UV, Covestro, USA, for his Professional Development elective course, F0215 - Understanding Optical Fiber Coatings on Tuesday, October 15, 8:30 AM at @IWCS2024. His course is designed for wire and cable professionals who are interested in the chemistry and physical properties of coatings used to protect optical fibers from external forces and extreme temperatures. Coatings are an integral part of an optical fiber. Understanding the capabilities of the chemistry as well as the physical properties is important to understanding the manufacturing of the fiber and cable, as well as the field performance. Course F0215 will discuss the fundamentals of the most commonly used technology, UV-cured acrylates. The first section will focus on the basic chemistry required and key components such as photoinitiators and sensitizers. The second section will discuss important role of oxygen throughout the lifecycle of a coating. The third section will focus on photochemistry. The final section will focus on physical properties, how they are determined and their significance to performance. This will include discussion on microbending and how coatings are integral to protecting the fiber from external perturbations, strip force and pullout force and their significance, strength and fatigue, as well as temperature cycling.

Regulations and scrutiny around Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions are impacting access to finances and resources more and more as time goes on. This can really back engineering teams into a corner. You want to continue to push the boundaries of performance, and make the next best thing. However, in order to get resources your focus is forced to be on variables that at best, are not driving performance, and at worst can degrade performance. ICMD® can help engineers navigate the various requirements to development innovative solutions, rather than watering down existing capabilities to meet the tightening requirements.

Free, One-hour Webinar: Interfacial Stress and Delamination in Layered Structures Delamination at interfaces is a common failure mode encountered by engineers responsible for designing and manufacturing systems that rely on bonding between dissimilar materials. This free, one-hour webinar will introduce the mechanics of interfacial stress and delamination in layered structures, with the goal of helping engineers better predict and prevent delamination failures. We will survey the sources and basic characteristics of mechanical stress at interfaces as well as introduce the practical experimental, analytical, and computational approaches available for analyzing delamination failures.

Product lines have been used for hardware and software for many years. However, the various engineering disciplines (mechanical, electrical and software) have only developed reuse principles, variant and variability management in their own areas where their own practices are well established. However, in an integrated approach to the development of complex systems in a product line, this practice is relatively new and represents a complex task. If feature-based product line engineering practices are successfully applied to complex systems, variations can be managed in a traceable way across all systems engineering artefacts. This can create an integrated approach across all disciplines, with features enabling a common understanding of variation across all disciplines and organisational levels.
