Engineering a Future With Purpose
For Roxanne Ehrig, the classroom and the track may seem like two different worlds, but each has taught her something about the other. The discipline required to balance structural engineering coursework with cross country and track & field has helped Ehrig develop a routine that allows her to su...
This Thin Device Can Store Energy, Strengthen Structures and Be Recycled
Engineers developed a new type of supercapacitor that can do more than store electricity — it can also provide structural support and be quickly disassembled into reusable parts. It could offer a more sustainable approach to energy storage for lightweight electric vehicles.
