In other words\, these materials can convert mechanical deformation into electrical output\, making them promising candidates for sensing and energy harvesting applications. \n“From Lab to Road: Testing Rubber for Real-World Performance”\nPaul Merda\, Education Coordinator/Technical Advisor\, ARDL \nThis presentation explores how laboratory testing methods are used to evaluate and predict the real-world performance of rubber components in applications such as windshield wipers\, tires\, and engine mounts. \nPANEL DISCUSSION: “From Passion to Profession: Paths\, Pivots\, and Possibilities”\nModerator: Fred Carter\, Strategic-Partner\, Schooley Mitchell\nPanelists: Will Mars\, Endurica; Jason Poulton\, Semi-Retired; Eric Britton\, Materials Engineer\, Bridgestone Americas \nThe goal of the panel will be to highlight some industry professionals with Engineering or PhD backgrounds and how they have progressed to their current position in the industry. We’ll aim to highlight some struggles\, victories\, and tips/lessons that might be helpful for the students\, but also for young professionals.
