For health workers in the field treating people stricken with Ebola and other diseases, a protective suit is the first defense against infection. The suit and head covering itself, however, can hamper the ability to help by impeding breathing, or heating up so quickly in high temperatures and humidity that workers can scarcely wear the […]
Congratulations to ME PhD student Ahmed Hussein, who has received a highly competitive Postdoctoral Fellowship Award from the National Research Council Research Associateship Program (NRC RAP). The program is administered by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, which aims to provide postdoctoral awards for recent PhD graduates to be used to conduct independent research […]
You can whack it with a hammer, attack it with a drill, even stab it with a screwdriver. But try as you might, you won’t be able to tamper with a high-tech pill dispenser designed by mechanical engineering students at Johns Hopkins University’s Whiting School of Engineering. Which is exactly the point. The U.S. Centers […]
IEEE Spectrum details efforts by a team of Hopkins undergraduates to build a real-life version of the “Star Trek” Tricorder. Read more.
Congratulations to the following members of the Mechanical Engineering Department who were recognized at the 26th Annual Whiting School of Engineering Convocation Awards ceremony on May 4th. These students and aides have helped further the mission of not only the Mechanical Engineering Department, but of the Whiting School of Engineering and Johns Hopkins University as well. […]
Engineering by Design Since its inception in 1986 by Professor William Sharpe, Jr., Senior Design has been the pinnacle of the Johns Hopkins University Mechanical Engineering student’s academic career. The course, which requires collaboration between the students and industry partners, provides students the opportunity to get some real-world experience while remaining in the academic setting. […]
