3 days - some magnets and more

I spent three very intensive days in Rome this week, teaching special topics in two classes for Fire Safety Engineering and Metal Structure Design.

Together with Giulio who works for StroNGER, I also had a meeting with a group of designers for the next steps in the StroNGER piezoTsensor final design. The outcome is very encouraging and by the end of January we should have a working prototype with the final design, on time for the ESA program conclusion in March 2016.

On top of that, I got to see the Trevi Fountain, one of Italy's most-popular attractions, which was reopened in Rome on Tuesday, after a 17-month restoration.
