As we gear up for ##WorldEngineeringDay, we’re sharing a few engineering jokes that the internet is brimming with. This one, in particular, is a favourite of ours. World Engineering Day is a collaborative effort between UNESCO and WFEO - World Federation of Engineering Organizations, aimed at spotlighting the remarkable achievements of engineers globally! While this joke may not underscore any specific achievement, it does offer a humorous glimpse into the problem-solving mindset that engineers are renowned for. It’s a light-hearted reminder that engineers are always on the lookout for better, more efficient solutions.

In the beginning of October, we had a kick-off workshop for the project LITMUS - a collaboration between leading Swedish researchers and companies in manufacturing industry, aiming at more human-centered, efficient and safer production, at ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena. It was truly inspiring to learn about the state of the art in research, simulation, and application of energy efficiency, productivity and worker well-being in manufacturing - and to see the commitment to bring these even further - for greener, more efficient and human-centric industry 5.0 in Sweden. Next stop is Värmland - with a factory tour and deep-dive into use cases! Sunith Bandaru, Lars Hanson, Amos H.C.

A vaincre sans peril on triomphe sans gloire (Part 2) ! Time is flying. Already two years have passed since I joined Prologium Technology 輝能科技. And the last 12 months were really really busy as you can imagine and may have seen in previous posts. First it is important to mention how proud I am to work in ProLogium and with Vincent Yang its Founder and CEO. He is a visionary leader who has been striving in the last 18 year to build ProLogium as a full fledged company crossing the line of 1,200 employees. A company among the very few in advanced development of solid-state batteries, the “Electric Vehicle Grail” as explained by Guillaume Guichard from Les Echos. And the one leading the pack both in chemistry and in manufacturing capability as shown through the Grand Opening of the World’s First Giga-level Solid-State Lithium Ceramic Battery Factory on January 23rd, 2024. Second, I am equally proud that ProLogium has decided establish its major production facility in foreseeable future in Dunkirk-France. This was the result of a more-than-a-year process starting from almost 100 sites in 13 countries in Europe. There are obvious reasons for this choice ranging from a decarbonized and cost competitive electricity to a burgeoning GigaFactory environment (we would become the 4th one in Northern France Region and the 2nd in Dunkirk), the land availability in a very well connected deep-sea harbor and the quality and relative availability of skilled manpower. Again the fact the French authorities have been working as a team to support and coach us through the technical process toward the different  authorizations and necessary consultations has been critically important. During this period of time: - We kept on building ProLogium awareness by attending numerous events like EES in Munich, Territoires&Industrie event, Global Mobility Call in Madrid and Future Battery Forum in Berlin just to name some of them; - We have announced our project in Dunkirk on May 12 and have successfully completed the prior consultation process under the aegis of the Commission nationale du débat public (CNDP), and have already initiated the environmental and building process; - We have started to build our team in Europe both in our Dunkirk and Paris office; - We have maintained an intense level of technical discussion with potential clients both in the automotive and aeronautics fields (but I cannot be more specific because of NDA in place); - And again I travelled back and forth to Taiwan, the US, in Europe and obviously in Dunkirk. And I enjoyed every part of this journey. Obviously this is not an easy path and there are a lot of difficulties to handle. We’re climbing our Everest and are doing step-by-step with energy and passion. And it was just the second year. Stay tuned, so more to come... #leadingthewaytonextgenerationbatteries

EUROSTRUCT (European Association on Quality Control of Bridges and Structures) has been a breath fresh air since its inception, championinig #guidelines, #recommendations and #bestpractice for our built #infrastructure sectors.We are very happy to let you know that the next Eurostruct Conference, #Eurostruct25 will be in University College Dublin, Ireland from 2-5 September 2025. Eurostruct23 in Vienna attracted infrastructure owners, policy makers, the industry and researchers globally in a unique way - focusing deeply on the true value that better analyses, processes, technology and innovation can bring to us. Eurostruct25 will continue to follow this forward looking and industry oriented approach. Please consider booking out your diaries now. This will be a key location to discuss, exchange, debate and consolidate practical and important ideas for implementation/adaptation for better decisions on infrastructure. This is also an excellent time to consider taking #membership of Eurostruct. If you are an engineer, owner, manager, policy maker or a researcher engaging with built infrastructure - this is the place to be. Looking forward to see so many of you there! Email [email protected] with any query Some key dates: Mini-Symposium Proposals: By 15 Sep 2024 Abstracts due: 30 October 2024 Acceptance of Abstracts: 1 December 2024 Full Paper Due: 31 January 2025 Templates will be available in the coming days on: https://eurostruct.org/ Abdollah Malekjafarian Jennifer Keenahan Alfred Strauss Prof. Bergmeister

📽 Introducing the #DrasticProject’s Spanish Demonstrator! 📽 Attending to the structural layer of buildings, Drastic’s Spanish Demonstrator tackles two materials that can have the largest environmental impact within the built environment life cycle: cement and steel. With no established ecosystem for the disassembly and reuse of structural steel elements, this Demonstrator looks to implement and prove the feasibility of such a system. As well as this, this project aims to repurpose a by-product from the secondary steelmaking process, known as white slag, via its application as a supplementary material within concrete. Drastic is a pioneering initiative that aims to demonstrate affordability, sustainability and circularity within the built environment via a collection of innovative European pilot projects known as 'Demonstrators’.   Learn more about Drastic: https://bit.ly/3wTbrTh #CircularEconomy #BuildingTheTransition European Commission, Sorigué, Adec Global SL, Alliance HQE - GBC, CELSA GROUP, Saint-Gobain, TECNALIA Research & Innovation, ICADE, LEZAMA DEMOLICIONES, Madaster, Omtre, Produktif, TalTech – Tallinn University of Technology, Timbeco, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Maastricht University, VITO, CAALA
