Models of Energy Flow in a Complex Society<\/h3>\n

In recent years, there have appeared a number of alternatives to traditional energy sources.\u00a0 As natural resources are depleted, it becomes more important to find reasonable replacements from these new energy sources.\u00a0 Some of these energy alternatives include photovoltaic, wind, hydroelectric, and nuclear power – both fission and fusion.\u00a0 As a student of history and physics, I sought a project that would combine historical and societal issues with scientific and technological ones.\u00a0 An examination of the physical processes of the various available energy sources for their efficiency, availability, and viability seems to be ideal; demonstrating the societal impact of physics.\u00a0 A major component of this project will be \u00a0the presentation of this information in the form of an educational online game for use by the students of Physics 196 – Energy and Society in the Spring semester 2001.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
