Grand Challenges for Engineering

Favorite Grand Challenge

'Dead Zones' Appear in Waters Worldwide, Joel Achenbach, The Washington Post, updated 15 August 2008, accessed 15 September 2008 (Grand Challenge)

Why this Challenge is my Favorite

I come from Annapolis, Maryland, a city situated on the Chesapeake Bay. The Bay suffers from rampant nitrogen pollution. Overcoming this challenge would immensely aid my hometown.

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

Out of all the demonstrations I explored in MATLBA, the Loma Prieta Earthquake one was my favorite. I am very interested in using the dimensional graphs in MATLAB, and after perusing through the Loma Prieta Earthquake code, I believe I have some understanding of how to program 3D graphs. In a close second to the Loma Prieta Earthquake demonstration, the Bending Truss demonstration was particularly entertaining with its interactive features.
