∞ 𝑅ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑘 = Eq. (1) 𝑞, where 𝑇𝑠 is the average surface temperature of the simulator, 𝑇∞ is the air temperature in thetest section and q is the power supplied to the heater. The heat transfer problem is simplified asone-dimensional heat conduction that is normal to the wind direction. Additionally, thetemperature at the base of the heat sink is assumed to be the same as the temperature of thesimulator for simplicity. That is, the thermal resistance of the thermal interface material isneglected. Tꚙ T

Both workshops will take two days, where one day will focus onmechatronics workforce education systems and pedagogies, and the second day will be dedicatedto the current and prospective mechatronics developments and new technologies that can beapplied in workforce education. The workshops will be recorded and set up for live streaming tothe general public on YouTube and other social media, and at workshop Q&A sessions the livestreaming system will turn to a webinar form allowing deep interactions among local and remoteparticipants. If the facility allows, the workshop video will be taken by multiple video cameras tocreate a real time VR environment for local and remote users

The presentations included undergraduate researchoptions and their benefits, how to get involved in research, how to find advisors, and how to getresearch credits. There was a Q&A session with a panel of current UG researchers, and one-minute presentations by each research lab was followed to introduce various research topics tostudents. After all presentations, there was around 15 minutes for students to talk with facultymembers in person.Launch CE Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships (SURF)URC at CE discussed about the survey data and made a plan to provide more researchopportunities to UG students in the department.

failure. Spatial variability: The program offers an option to define the spatial variability of each slice, which can be analyzed with isolate parameters or in groups. When more field investigation and soil testing are available, more statistical data become available and the probability of failure can be more accurately estimated.Some results generated by PNW-SLOPE are presented in the following figures. Fig. 7shows the results for deterministic analysis. The table in Fig.7 contains each input dataconsidered and the results for each slice. This way of presenting the output is very usefulfor verification of hand calculations. Fig. 8 presents the distributions of the factor ofsafety and Fig. 9 the scatter data for load (Q
results from the in-videoquizzes. This study will provide evidence on the impact that short-length videos have on learningoutcomes based on whether students engage with the videos on-schedule or if they wait untilreviewing for the final exam. Table 1 shows the video lengths for all videos in the study. Theinstructors worked to make sure the sum of the short-length videos in a given section was similarto the video lengths of the medium-length videos from the semester before. A few timediscrepancies exist due to variance in re-recording the lectures. Videos containing a quiz have a Qin the label (e.g. 7.2Q).Table 1: Number of videos, video length, and defined label for each video chapter (Q next to the videos’ label show
