教师简介:

Stephen Brown, Ph.D.

Research Scientist, MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts USA

Owner, Aprovechar Lab L3C, Montpelier, Vermont USA

I bring over 35 years of experience in using theory, modeling, measurement, and experimentation to solve problems in Earth, energy, and environmental sciences.

My primary areas of expertise are the physical properties of fractured and otherwise heterogeneous rock and the application of geophysical methods to mining, energy, and environmental problems.

I draw upon a broad range of physical science disciplines – including geology, geophysics, physics, materials science, hydrology, fluid and heat transport, and chemistry – to develop the fundamental understanding required for robust and practical results.

I aim to provide education and develop tools and technical solutions to problems of societal importance and place them in the hands of people who need them.


课程简介:

****************************************************

(1) Instrument Control and Sensors with Arduino Microcontrollers

A hand-on workshop in 3 sessions of 2-3 hours each

We will work together to build some different electronic circuits interfacing environmental sensors to an ESP-32 microcontroller, program the microcontroller to read the sensors using the Arduino Development Environment and C-like programming language, and use python to record and plot the data on a laptop.

Each student will need an up-to-date 64-bit laptop computer with either Microsoft Windows 10 or Ubuntu linux 18.04 operating system and a micro-USB data cable.

****************************************************

(2) Series of 4 lectures concerning Geologic Mapping For Resource Assessment.

(a) Introduction to Mapping for Resource Assessment

(b) Structure and Ore Deposits

(c) Structure 1 – Fractures

(d) Structure 2 – Faults
