| The Institute staff deals with a variety of complex science and engineering problems on a daily basis. Yet we, like most people, generally don't question common occurrences, such as how computers transmit e-mail messages or how tire pressure affects fuel consumption. We've set aside this space so that our engineers and scientists could answer your questions about the things we often take for granted. You can submit your own questions by going to "The Lighter Side" section of the web site. |
