These properties are important to creatures that fly, swim, or dive. Buoyancy and density affect how fluids behave within our bodies and how we enjoy carbonated drinks, charged up car batteries, and soap bubbles.

The author exploredthe first course in a two-course sequence, focusing on a feasibility study project and a globalperspectives essay. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was integrated into a capstone designcourse for mechanical and aerospace engineers to facilitate a creative process as a team of foursenior students designed an autonomous robot boat [47]. The process is similar to a traditionalweighted criteria decision matrix approach but with refinement that can help guide the divergent– convergent thinking processes that are characteristics of creative design
