Today, modern measurement technologies enable high-precision detection of the movement of liquids and gases, providing valuable data for numerous applications. How does air flow around an airplane? How does blood move through our veins? And how can pollutant emissions in combustion processes be…

One lecture in an undergraduate quantum physics class changed my life forever.

It was 2001, and the professor introduced the idea that physicists could use quantum particles to build a new kind of superpowerful computer. I was so captivated by the idea that quantum physics could…

Keeping quality high in today’s fast-moving production world is a big challenge. Traditional quality checks have worked well, but they can be slow, require a lot of work, and are prone to mistakes.

AI could change this by making quality control faster, more accurate, and easier to…

Clarkson University is a private national research university in upstate New York and a leader in technological education. As one of the many Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design (SPEED), the Clarkson University Clean Snowmobile Team is a student-led initiative driven by a…

Outliers are values that don’t “fit in” with the rest of the data. These extreme values are commonly considered a nuisance when we seek to summarize the data with our descriptive statistics. This article will show how to turn these nuisances into useful information.

The earliest…

Many industries, from aerospace to medical device manufacturing, are required to show customers, auditors, or regulatory bodies that their measurement devices are acceptable for use. But how do you prove that?

One of my clients needed to show the Biomedical Advanced Research and…
