An informative and life changing experience to be in Visthar and learn about gender, caste, class and diversity and even how to be a more empathetic facilitator in people's learning journey.

🚀 Thrilled to Share My Experience from the 3D Concrete Printing Summer School at UNIVERSITY OF NAPLES FEDERICO II ! 🏗️ I recently had the incredible opportunity to participate in a cutting-edge Summer School focused on 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP). This program provided advanced technical knowledge in designing and constructing structures using 3DCP, covering everything from material properties and structural analysis to large-scale applications. A highlight was engaging with distinguished guest lecturers and fellow researchers, fostering rich discussions and deeper understanding. Excited to apply this expertise and drive innovation in the construction industry! COURSE OUTLINE -Additive Manufacturing processes using concrete -Construction materials adopted in 3DCP -Rheological requirements to control the printing process -Mechanical-physical characterization in the fresh state -Mechanical-physical characterization in the hardened state -Analytical and numerical modeling of the printing process/layered structure -Reinforcement technologies -Structural optimization based on free-form capabilities -Structural analysis and approval in large-scale applications -Examples and practical applications #3DConcretePrinting #AdditiveManufacturing #ConstructionInnovation #Engineering #SustainableConstruction

Did you know that National Trivia Day is celebrated every January 4th? It's the perfect opportunity to showcase your knowledge and impress friends with intriguing facts. While some trivia may seem trivial, it often opens doors to deeper understanding. So, sharpen your wits and test yourself with these three questions.

Sometimes, the most challenging setbacks in life are the ones that shape our journey the most. Vinesh Phogat’s announcement to step away from wrestling after the Paris Olympics is a moment that reminds us all of the strength it takes to recognize when it’s time to close one chapter and prepare for another. The path of an athlete is never easy, marked by intense highs and lows, victories and disappointments. Vinesh has shown incredible courage and resilience throughout her career, overcoming countless obstacles and inspiring millions. The Burnt Toast Theory teaches us that when things don’t go as planned, it’s often because something greater is on the horizon. While it may feel like a setback today, Vinesh’s decision could be the beginning of a new and even more impactful chapter in her life. Sometimes, life redirects us in ways we don’t understand at the moment, but with time, we realize it was all part of a bigger plan. As Vinesh Phogat moves forward, we stand behind her with unwavering support. This moment is not the end but the start of something new, filled with possibilities that we can’t yet imagine. Her legacy in wrestling will always be celebrated, but we’re even more excited to see the new heights she’ll reach in whatever she chooses next. Here’s to Vinesh—may this next chapter be as inspiring and courageous as the last. 🌟 #VineshPhogat #NewBeginnings #UnwaveringSupport

#!/𝐛𝐢𝐧/𝐩𝐡𝐝 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 "#!" (𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐠) tells a system to execute a bash script, this line declares I'm executing my PhD journey! The Good news is that this is not intended to scare or bore you - just look more closely to the end. Here's a glimpse into my new operating system, just read the first 3 lines and move to line 15: "#!/𝘣𝘪𝘯/𝘱𝘩𝘥 𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘰 "𝘞𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨: 𝘌𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘩𝘋 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦.

One thing I forgot to include in the above bash is: " 𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐨 "𝐏𝐡𝐃.𝐞𝐱𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠.

The journey ahead promises to be challenging, enlightening, and filled with growth opportunities. I'm absolutely delighted to start my PhD in Chemical Engineering University of Alabama Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering. My aim is twofold: to learn the art of scientific research and to make contributions to my focus area in computational methods and catalysis. This will enable me to tackle part of the questions I have raised and contribute to the vision I outlined in my Statement of Purpose: "One visionary question I had always asked myself is, can getting a catalyst or material for a particular process be as easy as searching the internet? One could easily say that this is another Artificial Intelligence big idea. I don't want to just think this; I want to be actively involved in research to make this a reality during my Ph.D." I'm always grateful for the support of my mentors, colleagues, and loved ones as I embark on this adventure.

🏊🏻♀️ Diving into the history of the Lassonde School of Engineering - York University Looking into a new chapter of my life, alongside the #LEIS team, as a Special Projects Assistant, I stumbled upon this inspiring speech by Pierre Lassonde, researching the origins of the school that bears his name. The speech not only intrigued me about who Lassonde is but also offered valuable insights that I believe will shape my approach in this role, such as: 💫 A motivating and encouraging message Lassonde did not sugarcoat the challenges ahead, but instead provided practical advice on how to face them. His words reminded me that success is not about having a perfect plan from the start, but about being #adaptable, #resilient, and #proactive. It's about taking action, learning from our experiences, and building trust with those around us. 💪🏼 Be a PEST Lassonde introduced the PEST "Passion, Experience, Speed, and Trust" acronym as a guide to success. Each element is vital: #Passion fuels our motivation, #Experience develops our skills, #Speed emphasizes the importance of timely action, #Trust forms the foundation of all relationships. These qualities serve as a broader philosophy on approaching life and work. 🏁 The Value of Starting Somewhere One of the most fundamental pieces of advice from Lassonde’s speech was the recognition that the “first job” may not be glamorous. This resonated with me because it's easy to get carried away with the idea that the first job has to be perfect. But what matters is to focus on what we do and approach each opportunity as an opportunity to #grow and #learn... Of course, without forgetting to #enjoy it. Thank You Pierre Lassonde 🙏 #LassondeSchoolofEngineering #isnpirng #LEIS #Yorku https://lnkd.in/gubBBxqH
