7min @RSAEvents clip - #Engineering in Orbit with Kathy Sullivan
text from youtube "The Hubble Space Telescope revolutionised the way we look at the universe. In this spotlight, Kathy Sullivan, the first American woman to walk in space celebrates the unsung heroes behind the scenes of the Hubble’s launch, repair, and incredible lifespan and pays tribute to the innovative thinking and engineering that made it possible."

10min @thecrashcourse clip - Engineering #Ethics : Crash Course Engineering #27
Text from youtube "We’ve talked about many important concepts for engineers, but today we’re going to discuss a hugely important one that you might not even realize is an engineering concept: ethics. We’ll talk about what a Code of Ethics is. We’ll explore engineering ethics and the ethical theories of utilitarianism, rights ethics, and duty ethics. We’ll also take a look at a few different real life examples of ethical problems in engineering."

11min @thecrashcourse clip - #Biomaterials: Crash Course Engineering #24
Text from youtube "We’ve talked about different materials engineers use to build things in the world, but there’s a special category of materials they turn to when building things to go inside our bodies. In this episode we’ll explore the world biomaterials like titanium and their coatings, the special chemistry of polyurethane, and the cross-linked structure of hydrogels. We’ll also look at the importance of safety & research, as well as the enormous future potential of biomaterials."

9min 20sec @thecrashcourse clip - mass producing ice-cream
Text from youtube "In this episode, we looked at food engineering. We explored how food’s capacity to spoil makes it a unique challenge from an engineering viewpoint. We saw how many branches of engineering come into play to process ingredients, ensure safety for consumers, and package food, as well as how thermodynamics is involved in the different stages of food production."

11min 34sec @thecrashcourse clip - Computer Engineering and the End of Moore's Law: Crash Course Engineering #35
Text from youtube "This week we’re exploring a field of engineering that is essential to how you’re watching this video: computers and computer engineering. We’ll explain differences between hardware and software, how engineers are working on making computers smaller and more energy efficient, and how computer aided processes such as CAD and CAM make it easier for engineers to design and manufacture parts needed in machines and products."

9min @thecrashcourse clip - The Polymer Explosion: Crash Course Engineering #20
Text from youtube "We’re continuing our look at engineering materials with third main type of material that you’ll encounter as an engineer: polymers. They’re made of long, repeating chains of smaller molecules known as monomers and today we’ll explore their strange history of polymers and the things that contributed to how we use them today."

10 min @thecrashcourse clip - How Not to Set Your Pizza on Fire: - #heat #exchangers Crash Course Engineering #15
Text from youtube "Today we’re going to explain how exchangers...exchange heat. We’ll look at concentric tubes, finned tubes, plate heat exchangers, and shell-and-tube heat exchangers. And we’ll look at some equations to help us sort through heat transfer and decide what heat exchangers are best suited for our designs."

12min @thecrashcourse animated clip - #Roman #Engineering: Crash Course History of Science #6
Text from you tube "The Romans developed a lot of infrastructure like roads and aqueducts to both help their cities flourish and to... you know... be better at war. But the interesting thing about Roman Engineering is how it was almost all focused on Techne and not Episteme. In this episode of Crash Course History of Science, Hank takes us down the road of road building, domes, and some really cool cement. "
