Engineering Student Develops Corrosion Mobile App 工程专业的学生开发腐蚀学移动应用
University of Toronto engineering student Jason Tam de-
veloped an iPhone app, Corrosion, which provides corrosion terminologies, formulae and benchmarking data. Professor Steven Torpe put the app development challenge to his MSE 315 Environmental Degradation of Materials students, to engage them in the coursework via smartphones. Although Tam had no background in application devel-
opment, he taught himself to use Objective C, the pro- gramming language for Apple applications, and completed a working draft of the program in only four months, just before his year-long professional experience term at Agnico- Eagle Mines Ltd. He completed the app during his time off and on monthly 12-hour trips home to Ontario. Te app now sells for 99 cents on the iTunes app store
and all proceeds go to the George B. Craig Scholarship, an in-course award designated for an academically high- performing upper-year materials engineering student with demonstrated financial need. Te app includes a glossary of more than 300 technical
corrosion engineering terms, a list of constants, such as the Boltzmann constant, reference elec- trodes and schematics. Virtual corrosion experiments include an exploration of crevice corrosion on the Titanic. “Tis new application changes the
way we access reference information in the corrosion science and engineering field,” Torpe said. “I cannot thank Ja- son enough for his dedication and hard work in developing this digital resource. Tis is a remarkable step in moving one area of the materials science and engineering discipline forward into the 21st century.”
多伦多大学工程专业的学生Jason Tam开发一个腐蚀 学科的iPhone应用程序，可提供腐蚀术语，公式和基准 数据。Steven Thorpe教授将MSE315环境降解材料的 挑战交给他的学生，让他们通过智能手机参与课程。 虽然Tam没有应用程序开发的技术背景，他自学使用
Objective C，苹果的应用程序的编程语言，仅4个月内 完成了工作的程序草案。他在Agnico-Eagle矿业有限公 司长达一年的专业工作，他利用每月12个小时从家到安 大略省的旅途时间完成了应用程序。 现在应用程序在iTunes应用程序商店的售价为99美 分，所有收益归于乔治B.克雷格奖学金，一个奖励材料 工程高年级学生高性能学术财务支持的奖学金。 该应用程序包括300多防腐工程术语的词汇表，常量 的列表，如玻尔兹曼常数，参比电极和原理图。虚拟的 腐蚀实验包括泰坦尼克号上的缝隙腐 蚀的探索。
“这种新的应用改变我们访问的方 式，及在腐蚀科学和工程领域的参考 信息，” Thorpe说， “对于Jason发 展数字资源的奉献和辛勤工作，我无 法表达对他的感谢。这是进入21世纪 的材料科学与工程的一个了不起的区 域，使学科向前进了一步。“
An Android version of the app is in the works.
