The principal cause of upper limb amputations is due to traumatism. The prosthesis is an assistive device to help in the activities of daily for the amputee person. However, one of the latest reports shows that in developing countries there are aroun...

Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030 (2022)
Journal Article
Fogg-Rogers, L., Bakthavatchaalam, V., Richardson, D., & Fowles-Sweet, W. (2022). Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030. Cahiers COSTECH, 5, Article 133

The environmental and health impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss are now apparent and yet cohesive policymaking to mitigate emissions is moving too slowly. The UK’s target for carbon neutrality has been set for 2050, but this has been sup... Read More about Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030.
