新加入麻省理工学院教师队伍的阿莫斯·温特(麻省理工2005届硕士、2011届博士)着手解决发展中国家“极为困难”的工程学挑战。在任何一天走进阿莫斯·温特(Amos Winter)的实验室,你可能会发现这位机械工程学教授正在捣鼓一个水净化系统、一个高效柴油牵引机引擎、让残疾人可以用自然步态走路的义肢或义膝。所有这些都是他正在设计用来帮助发展中国家的人们的设备。但是,温特并不是生来就对做好事感兴趣,这样的方向源于人生的意外,命运的转折。其不期而至的程度不亚于从树上摔下来、一次撞车事故,或者一次热病这类可能导致一个
Amos Winter, a new MIT faculty member (MIT 2005, Ph.D.), tackles the engineering challenges of “extremely difficult” in developing countries. At any day in Amos Winter’s lab, you may find that the professor of mechanical engineering is working on a water purification system, an efficient diesel-tractor engine that allows disabled people to use natural steps Prosthesis or knee prosthesis. All of these are the devices he is designing to help people in developing countries. However, Winter is not born to be interested in doing good things, this direction stems from life’s accident, a turning point in fate. Its unexpected extent falls as much as falling from a tree, a crash, or a fever that could cause one
