In this Modern era, most of the students pursue professional
programmers like engineering from top-notch colleges. Many of the students
prefer engineering as it is one of the prominent fields in Education sector.
Students usually go with the most promising institutes. Shree Ramchandra
College of Engineering is one of the top engg
colleges in Pune. As they believe that the leaders of tomorrow are
the young generation of today. The engineering sector is dwelling in success
with the latest innovations in several engineering fields. These innovations
play an important role to motivate the students.
Latest Engineering Innovations
Mechanical Engineering:
3D Printing is one hiking sector in
manufacturing technology, and this year it has hiked even more. 3D Printing
innovations are rolling up almost every day. But, the innovation that caught
everyone’s eye was Strati, it is the first fully 3D Printed car designed in
America by Local Motors. Almost 44 hours were taken to print all the car
components and then another two days for assembling them together. This car has
only 40 components as compared to average car components which can be up to
20000. Local Motors stated that they designed the car this way in order to
minimize tooling costs and complexity.
Civil Engineering:
At MIT, Civil Engineering experts came up with
stronger and durable concrete with 50 percent less carbon emissions. North
Carolina State University Experimenters developed a sensing skin technology
merging electrodes and computing to quickly identify cracks or damage in the
structures.
Swiss researchers in another successful
experiment, showed that shape memory alloys can be utilized in the building
industry for applications like building up of bridges. As the name states, a
shape memory alloy memorizes its shape when bent out of shape. These
innovations can be used to overcome drawbacks in concrete’s weakness like
tension with innovation like prestressed concrete.
Electrical Engineering
Some Researchers at Sweden’s Chalmers
University of Technology developed a microwave circuit that transmits data up
to 40 gigabytes per second.
Another example is of integrated circuit
designed from the University of Arkansas which can sustain temperatures more
than 350 degrees Celsius.
NTU Engineers were able to print complex
circuits on materials like plastic, paper, and aluminum foil.
But the most buzz worthy invention was made by
Polytechnic University of Valencia. They can charge any device wirelessly by
using an energy transfer device.
The device uses resonance coupling, linking
the energy transmitter and the other device to gain the required transfer of
electrical energy.
Computer Science Engineering
The most amazing computing technology came
from Google with the No CAPTCHA, reCAPTCHA application programming interface
which want users to confirm they are human by selecting a checkbox stating -
I’m not a robot. The system can read simple human movements like waiting before
clicking a checkbox.
Computer scientists at Carnegie Mellon
University built Wyvern, a programming language which make it easy to use
multiple languages for one programming task. It is the first type specific
language that can understand and convert literals into various types of
programming languages.
Conclusion:
Throughout history, many brilliant minds have
thought of many great ideas. Some of those ideas have come up with inventions
that changed our lives forever. We should appreciate the new innovations from
the young and creative minds as without creative minds implementing their ideas
to test, many of the things we take for granted would never have been there.
