Engineering Dimensions

November/December 2015

Engineering Dimensions is published quarterly by Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO) and is distributed to all PEO-licensed professional engineers. The magazine provides information relevant to the practice of professional engineering and promotes awareness of the Professional Engineers Act and the activities of the association.

In this issue:   This issue we look at materials engineering and its influence on all areas of engineering practice. Often clouded by its overlap with metallurgy, chemical engineering and even nanotechnology, materials may be the least understood area in the entire engineering profession. Materials practitioners, a few of whom are profiled in this issue, hope to clear up some of that misunderstanding.
