2017 Fort Worth Regional Science Fair

Andy Brooks, Alex Danklefsen and Ted Dull supported this year’s Fort Worth Regional Science and Engineering Fair.  The Texas Chapter has been a longtime supporter of the science fair and awards special awards at the senior and junior high levels.  This year’s winners included experiments with: developing thermally conductive, yet electrically resistive polymeric composites; studying the efficiency of wind turbine blades; the measurement of the density of items and the mechanisms involved in setting up proper repeatable testing.  Alex also reviewed the various projects for the best use of metrics for another special award sponsored by the U.S. Metric Association.
