What is Singularity?
Singularity is a concept that began as a way to describe a mathematical phenomenon. In mathematics, it refers to a point where a mathematical object or point in a function set, begins to behave in an unusual, undefined or chaotic way. For instance, the function f(x) = 1/x becomes undefined at x=0, the function becomes plus or minus infinity, so this point is known as the singularity of the function. Keeping this mathematical construct in mind, this article will explore the use of singularity in mechanics and the more recent concept of ‘technological singularity’.

5 Ways Engineers are Shaping the Future
The future is just a stone’s throw away, but one thing is certain: Engineers play a major role in shaping the world of tomorrow. By building the essential infrastructure upon which society depends, they turn engineering knowledge into action, traversing the path from concept to practical creation. Technologies are changing at such a fast pace that we cannot say with certainty what our world will look like 10 or 20 or 30 years from now, but we do know that whatever new wonders appear, engineers will have played a major role in shaping the future.

5 Ways Drones Can Change Engineering
The past few years have seen the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) – also known as drones – skyrocket across industry and society. Previously reserved for the military, we now see them providing footage at sporting events and concerts, and for films and advertisements as well as being used for delivery by retail giants like Amazon. They now find application in agriculture for monitoring of crops and animal herds, and in search and rescue for locating missing persons.
