National Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15 to October 15 and it’s a time to honor people of Hispanic and Latin descent who have enriched our society. Hispanic and Latin communities have made an enduring contribution to engineering and science in the U.S. and around the world, including here at Exponent. Consultants and staff with heritage from Argentina, Brasil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Guatemala, México, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, España, and Venezuela help our clients tackle their most difficult questions, and take an active, leading role in developing complex technical solutions — often bringing a unique perspective. Exponent pays tribute to the global impact of Hispanic and Latin people this month while reaffirming our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are enjoying widespread adoption and use among OEMs and drivers, transforming both vehicles and how people interact with them. Our data scientists and human factors experts surveyed recent crash and non-crash research to understand the potential implications and effectiveness of Level 2 ADAS technologies in real-world conditions.
Rapid innovation is pushing sodium-ion (Na-ion) technologies to market across applications ranging from grid-scale battery storage to EVs. How can industry stakeholders apply lessons from Exponent’s decades of lithium-ion battery development experience to reduce risk in fast-evolving Na-ion applications?
