One of the 14 Grand Challenges for Engineering is to provide energy from nuclear fusion. New progress is being made daily in the hopes for this clean energy source.

Scientists Just Jacked Up Plasma Energy Output, And It Could Make Nuclear Fusion More Efficient, Mike McRae, ScienceAlert, 23 August 2017, accessed 14 September 2017 (Energy from Nuclear Fusion)

Homework 2

My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the one on the Loma Prieta Earthquake. While being very informative on MATLAB it also taught me a lot about earthquakes. It showed numerous different plots, both 2-D and 3-D, that together taught me more about earthquakes and how they work.
