On November 6th the College of Engineering Biomedical and Chemical Engineering students watched a presentation from Lisa Waples, career consultant in biomedical engineering to help them prepare for an upcoming conference.

The red Routemaster has become internationally recognised as an icon of London. This bus, RM1, was the first of four prototypes for the Routemaster. It made its first public appearance in 1954 at the Earl's Court Motor Show. Before entering service it underwent extensive testing, included skids at 30mph and a tilt test to at least 28 degrees. In 1956 it was trialled on Route 2 between Golders Green and Crystal Palace. Passengers were encouraged to share their views on this 'future London bus.'

The School of Engineering celebrated 50 years at the Sandy Bay Campus in 2009. Many thousand engineers have graduated with an engineering degree during this time.

Plasma thrusters used on satellites could be much more powerful
It was believed that running more propellant through a Hall thruster would wreck its efficiency, but new experiments suggest they might power a crewed mission to Mars
It was believed that Hall thrusters, an efficient kind of electric propulsion widely used in orbit, need to be large to produce a lot of thrust. Now, a new study from the University of Michigan suggests that smaller Hall thrusters can generate much more thrust—potentially making them candidates for interplanetary missions.
"People had previously thought that you could only push a certain amount of current through a thruster area, which in turn translates directly into how much force or thrust you can generate per unit area," said Benjamin Jorns, U-M associate professor of aerospace engineering who led the new Hall thruster study to be presented at the AIAA SciTech Forum in National Harbor, Maryland, today.
His team challenged this limit by running a 9 kilowatt Hall thruster up to 45 kilowatts, maintaining roughly 80% of its nominal efficiency. This increased the amount of force generated per unit area by almost a factor of 10.

On Thursday 2nd October 2014 Hartlepool College of Further Education hosted its annual Awards held by its School of Engineering. The event gave College staff, partners, employers and the family and friends of students a chance to honour the very finest levels of achievement in this diverse and dynamic area.
With an Engineering heritage going back over a century and over a third of its interior space given over to Engineering facilities, a lot of employers simply refer to Hartlepool College of Further Education as “the Engineering College”.

Mi and Wang have used this machine for producing high-quality, wafer-scale hexagonal boron nitride. Their discovery could speed research into the next-generation computing and LED devices.

Mickey Leland research associate Julia Lauterbach working in the lab with mentor Candice Ellison. Julia is working with the Energy Conversion Engineering Division at NETL studying Engineering/Environmental Science. Her project is the development of Microwave-specific Catalysts for Methane Pyrolysis. This project will study the impact of specific physical properties of solid oxide catalysts on their conversion efficiency
of methane to hydrogen and solid carbon products via microwave-enhanced methane pyrolysis. Specifically,
complex metal oxides with an AxByOz formula will be synthesized in the lab with varied concentrations of transition
metal substitutions. The materials made will be characterized for microwave-specific properties (i.e. dielectric,
magnetic) before being tested in the reaction. A potential correlation of these properties to the reaction and
product selectivity will be explored.
The participant will learn about alternative energy sources, like RF fields and microwaves, and how the properties of
various materials impact their interaction with the electromagnetic fields. Further, they will learn how to prepare
and characterize these materials to develop a correlation between synthesis method and microwave-related
properties. Finally, they will have opportunities to develop their written and spoken communication skills about
their findings to other researchers.

Building starte din 1959, Opened in 1968, closed in 1991, for the last 26 years it has been decommisioned, the site will be cleared in 2083, Trawsfynydd, 26 years years of power, 124 years of blot on the landscpe, was it worth it!!!!!
