Engineering: Prosthetic Innovations
Scientists and engineers have made great strides in recent years with prosthetics and orthotics. In this program we discuss how designers simulate the anatomy and physiology of missing limbs. Though some prosthetics are simple and minimally functional, others are complex bionic artificial limbs with improved designs, using advanced hydraulics, lightweight materials such as carbon fiber and computer microprocessors and sensors. This program will highlight how advances in prosthetics have improved life for people with certain injuries and disabilities.

Engineering Solutions to Corrosion
The serious consequences of corrosion on infrastructure have become a problem of worldwide concern. This material degradation is seen every day as corrosion causes plant shutdowns, the waste of valuable resources, loss and contamination of product, reduction in efficiency, and costly maintenance. Corrosion can also jeopardize safety and inhibit technological progress. This program looks at what scientists are doing to develop stronger materials that can stand the test of time and environmental conditions.
