Hello from Copenhagen

Welcome to my MSc blog. This is my 4th and final semester at the Technical University of Denmark where I have been studying as a masters student in engineering design and applied mechanics. Over the next 5-6 months I will be researching, conceptualising, analysing and hopefully creating a new micro cooler device for the cooling of electronics.

This blog is a follow up to my previous one that I kept last semester and followed an interesting 3 week course that I was doing on the creation of a micro surface inspired by the Thorny Devil lizard. If you wish to review the blog, you can find it here.

I learned a lot from that blog, mainly that I should never keep one again! It was very time consuming but I think it is a nice way to keep things together; my thoughts, concepts, interesting finds and perhaps, who knows, someone might find it interesting. This time, however, I will try to keep it more structured and to the point (less waffle, as I am inclined to do), with at least an entry per week summarising my work done. Apart from focusing on the main content and activities of the thesis, I will also describe any organisational activities or bureaucratic issues which have influenced progress. Hopefully, this blog will act as some sort of guide for future students (on how not to do things perhaps!). Ultimately, I want to expand my knowledge on the interesting issue of cooling micro electronics and bring some new thoughts and insights to the world.

Thank you,
Bryan.
