Last Monday, Kenneth visited the 𝙄𝘾𝙏𝙋-𝘾𝙎𝙄𝘾 in Madrid to deliver polymer samples 🙌

Patricia showed him how Dynamic Mechanical Analysis works: a technique that reveals how a material stretches, bends, and absorbs energy 📈

Big thanks to Patricia!

Our #DoctoralCandidate Kenneth shows us the #elastocaloric effect using a prototype piece of equipment that precisely stretches rubber bands, measures the force it took to stretch it, and repeat that cycle many times. When paired with a thermal camera, we can measure the temperature change 🎥🌡️

March 14 is Pi Day! This annual celebration honors the mathematical constant π because the date (3/14) matches its first three digits— 3️⃣.1️⃣4️⃣

And as if that wasn’t cool enough, it’s also Albert Einstein’s birthday! 🎉
