IntensificationProcess intensification was identified by the NSF as early as 1993 as a specific area in whichresearch endeavors should be concentrated to meet the needs of the chemical industry;1 almostone hundred archival articles were published on process intensification topics in 2008.2 Thenumber of such articles identified using the term "process intensification' in SciFinder Scholar in2009 and 2010 are 103 and 95, respectively.Benefits of process intensification activities include:3,4 1) novel or enhanced products; 2)improved chemistry; 3) enhanced safety; 4) improved processing; 5) energy and environmentalbenefits; 6) capital cost reduction; and 7) low inventories. Key to the endeavor is an ability toidentify the limitation(s) in a process, and knowledge

to trisect the entirecamp experience into pre-camp, camp and post-camp components.Pre-campAlthough making money is not the goal of most robotics camps, organizers must still collectmoney and must distribute those funds to meet the needs of the camp. This reality leads to thefirst decision. Is your summer robotic program(s) going to be operated by a not-for-profit entity,or is it being conducted to earn revenue? Revenue generating types of camps, a for-profitorganization, will include different planning, budgeting, and taxation concerns not discussed hereand our recommendation is to organize your camp within a not-for-profit structure. Either way,there are two general avenues for funds that camp organizers can pursue to assist in financing

Also future studies can discuss if there are any differencesbetween the experiences of the international student versus domestic students in the engineeringfield. Additionally, analysis by gender can also be done to better understand specific experiencesof students in engineering majors. Page 22.288.13 References1 Zidney, A. L., Bennett, J.

This discussion is used asa starting point to have the students think about the concept of focusing on a topic. At this point, we have spent approximately an hour-and-a-half on material leading up to the catapult. Instead of delving straight into calculations, we have the students build a catapult from plans and parts that we provide. The catapult is largely constructed from foam core; therefore, we spend 5 to 10 minutes discussing techniques for working with the

CAD/CAM graduates will increasingly have to compete with skilled and lower paid workers from countries like China, India and the developing world.• An Expansive Curriculum: A stand-alone program will need to have opportunities to expand the curriculum to allow specialization. The current curriculum through the proposed technical electives already to some extent captures alternatives. However, there is room for additional courses that would both compliment and supplement the current experience. These would be in the following areas: o Product Lifecycle Management (PLM): Exposure to the setup and use of a Product Data Management system would be

defined as the ability to easily be moved or carried1. A key component of manymilitary systems is their ability to be quickly assembled/disassembled, moved to differentlocations, and to use minimum manpower and equipment in order to accomplish the mission.One problem in redesigning systems to increase portability is that there is not currently anestablished rubric for measuring portability. The portability of a system is a function of severaldifferent aspects. We have developed a rubric to measure a system’s portability. The rubricincludes 18 parameters (Table 1) as discussed in detail below.In order to use the rubric, each of the 18 portability measures identified above is quantified forthe system(s) being evaluated.

Within the US the proportion of Natural Sciences andEngineering (NS&E) degrees as a share of total degrees conferred in US has declined byapproximately eight percent from 2002 to 2007 [1]. There is evidence to suggest that some of thisdecline can be attributed to the student attrition during their first one or two years from thescience and engineering programs.Previous studies have indicated that significant student attrition or “switching” from science andengineering educational programs to other fields occurs during

The calculated maximum current draw over the USB connection is about 114.71mA, sothat the microcontroller and all attached components are well within the limits of the USBconnection. This project is utilizing three of the digital outputs and two of the analog inputs.Each of the 14 digital pins can sink or source a maximum of 40mA. Each of the digital pins willsource about 11.5mA to the connected devices. This is well within the limits of the ATmega 328with plenty of room to spare. The analog inputs provide ten bits of resolution through theATmega328’s analog to digital converter. This allows the five volt reference to be divided into1024 steps.
