expense of autoclave and pre-impregnated carbonfiber construction. The process is suitable for very large structures with much higher quality Page 11.980.6than a wet lay-up technique. Finally, the local marine and aerospace industries that hire ourgraduates have recently adopted this process.Four hulls were created to achieve a final part with the desired quality, shape, stiffness and mass.Both infusion grade vinyl-ester and epoxy were tested. The epoxy provided a longer workingtime and was therefore more forgiving to mold preparation and bagging errors. The final hulluses a 3k tow, carbon fiber twill fabric woven from Toray T-300 fibers.

goal ofthis project is to have students develop good technical visualization and presentation skills usinga design brief format. Researchers have shown the value of using real world data to enhance instruction inmathematics, science and social studies.1,2 In this project, real-time data on renewable energytechnologies are collected from multiple systems and stored at a single location, the NC StateSolar House, enabling faculty and students to analyze, synthesize, and evaluate data in a varietyof contexts.

In 2003 he joined the faculty of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of British Columbia as junior chair of the NSERC sponsored research program in Virtual Machining. His work at this time focused on the modeling of cutter/workpiece engagement geometry to support process modeling for aerospace machining applica- tions.

These may often be indicated as preferred qualifications on engineering job postings. Certification in use of a platform can also carry professional value, in particular the older CAx systems that have developed broad userbases e.g. SolidWorks, CATIA, NX, Creo. This credentialing is also becoming available for the Cloud-based versions of these.3DExperience Platform OverviewA brief overview of

The age range of the participants wasbetween 19 and 21 years.This study utilized worked examples in the form of multimedia tutorial videosdemonstrating solid modeling (SM) strategies that were structured according to the 4C/IDmodel and delivered via the course’s multimedia learning management system (LMS).Each engineering graphics lesson in the course included a SM component to which thevideos pertained. The tutorial videos were designed in several formats based upon theinstructional components of the 4C/ID model (e.g., whole-task practice and part-taskpractice).

While there was a significant reduction in dimension application errors, it was notcompletely eliminated, with 8 of the final projects still exhibiting a noticeable number of missingdimensions.DesignThis paper presents the application of milestones as guide to the final project in order to improvethe application of dimensioning specifications during the Fall 2013 semester. This term was 14weeks long and the majority of the students were first-year, first-semester engineering students,the majority of which are in the Aerospace Engineering program.As the purpose of these intermediate markers is to allow timely feedback, the original milestoneswere not changed.
