What's happening at your internship? We would love to hear what kind of work you are doing!
For my research internship experience at Battery Dynamics and Engineering Lab, I have two main tasks: learning general knowledge of battery engineering and coding programs to utilize for ultrasonic testing. During the first week of the internship, I learned and trained how to make coin cells and pouch batteries. Based on the experience, I easily learned basic information about battery engineering. Therefore, I could start editing the PicoTech code that gathers ultrasonic sound waves from different materials. The project aims to determine the fast and slow ultrasonic waves from the coding program.
In the second week, I coded the FitReferenceWave function program that could fit the refere
