Md Tanvir Ahad received his Bachelor’s degree from Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology on November 2013 in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. From January 2015July 2015 he was at the Dana Engineering International Ltd (GEWaukesha) in Dhaka, Bangladesh as an Assistant Engineer
(GEWaukesha) gas engine. From 2015-2018 he was at the Applied DSP Laboratory of the Lamar University at Beaumont,TX, USA, and obtained a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering on 2018. Currently
he is perusing his Ph.D. degree in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at The University of Oklahoma starting from 2018present. Md Tanvir Ahad currently holds a Graduate research assistant position
at Product and Process Design Lab under the advisement of Professor Dr. Zahed Siddique.
“Creativity” is one of the highly valued competencies in the engineering discipline. In this research, investigators remodeled modified Alternative Uses of Task (AUT) created by Kröger et al., asking participants to judge the novelty and appropriateness of a given function related to a design solution. While in the original Kröger et al. model, participants were asked to judge the novelty and appropriateness of an alternative “use” or “function” for an object in their study. In the current research, the keywords were used as potential functions a solution to the associated design task might have. The primary outcome of this study is to understand the N400, post-N400 components, and the alpha band TRP activity in relation to the process of conceptual expansion used to identify the novelty and appropriateness of an engineering function. Another outcome is to successfully test and develop an ERP experiment for engineering design tasks. These outcomes contribute to this research's main objective: to further understand the field of creativity in engineering. This experiment data creates the contour maps to identify which scalp areas of the brain showed the most activity for the N400 and post-N400 time windows and finds the most negative potential located in a frontocentral distribution during N400 time window. N400 can provide guidance to what type of function to object mapping examples to give the students during idea generation.
