Gravitational acceleration was set inthe general settings with a y-component of -9.81 m/s2. The rectangular computational domainwas the same as the projected area in the experiments with dimensions of 464 mm in width and232 mm in height, which was used in all of the trials. The inlet velocities along the ceiling wallwere set to be 1, 2, 4, and 8 m/s, and the computational domain was meshed using a biased meshin the vertical direction. The simulations were run with a time step of 0.01 s during 500 timesteps for a total of 5

facultyclassroom practice (RTOP Z-score). This study also found that faculty classroom practice isrelated to student outcomes and that student-centered teaching practices are related to bettergrades and less course withdrawals. In other words shifting faculty practices towards student-centeredness would likely lead to lower percentages of DEW student grades. Providing effectivefaculty development opportunities in student-centered instruction is therefore highlyrecommended in order to mend the gap between faculty beliefs and practice and to promote morepositive student outcomes.AcknowledgementThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1226586.Bibliography1 M.

additional weekfor completion, the project can be expanded to include more variables: additional trussgeometries, which inclueds member orientation, length, and thickness. In addition, an instructorcan require each individual group to 3D print their own truss (rather than simply demonstratingthe printing procedure and conducting the failure loading test of the two optimized trusses). Thistype of expansion, of course, will require a significant time investment. It typically takes onehour to print the members needed to fully erect the truss at normal printing speeds (60-80 mm/s).The time required to train the teaching assistant (TA) to install and troubleshoot the 3D printer,and work with the g-code generator should take approximately 5-10 hours

Rather than rotatingthe wind velocity’s angle of attack, a formula was derived to rotate the base coordinates of theNACA 2412 by a certain angle ϴ. This method ensured the most consistent mesh across allangles that were tested. After importing the airfoil’s rotated coordinates, a mesh was generatedthat would strategically measure the aerodynamics of the airfoil at key regions. Across all
