AC 2007-232: COST-EFFECTIVE PROCESS CONTROL LAB SETUPPaul Villeneuve, University of Maine Paul L. Villeneuve, P.E. is an Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering Technology at the University of Maine. Page 12.410.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2007AbstractMany four-year engineering technology programs require or offer course(s) thatemphasize examining the transient behavior of systems. The systems can be mechanical,electrical, chemical, or any other engineering discipline. These courses are generallyclassified as classes covering control system theory. Unfortunately, examining thetransient

We have shared our work primarily through conferences to gain the help of theengineering education community in framing the taxonomy and our other results. We havepresented our work in four presentations at 3 conferences, and have another under review forpresentation at this ASEE conference. We have engaged the community with several workshopsand presentations as well.  Orr, M., Ohland, M., Long, R., Brawner, C., Lord, S., and

advanced mathematics with the optimization theory and s-domainto z-domain conversions. However, with our teaching pedagogy, this barrier can be overcomethrough design of different types of filters by MATLAB and applying them to real-timeimplementations. MATLAB is a necessary tool used to verify filter performance and performsimulations of various digital filter applications. To motivate our technology students orientedabout hands-on experience, we required them to perform real-time DSP using a floating-pointdigital signal processor2-3, TMS320C6713 DSK (development starter kit), to develop a real-timeDSP project such as a digital crossover system.The paper is organized as follows. We first explain the course prerequisites and describe ourclass

Then students work in teamsto create a list on their flip charts of “all possible things they might measure” on the pennies asthey add the parameter to their scope. Many of the items on their list will either be included onthe calibration report or will be considered again when discussing the validated procedure thatwill be used and/or the uncertainty of their measurements.After inspecting the pennies, qualitative issues are often raised about how to uniquely identifyeach penny (since

includes four categories of how anindividual processes and evaluates information29. The first category describes how a personinteracts with his or her environment. People who take initiative and gain energy frominteractions are known as Extroverts (E). Introverts (I), on the other hand prefer more of arelatively passive role and gain energy internally. The second category describes how a personprocesses information. A person who process data with their senses is referred to as a Sensors(S) and a person who sees where data is going in the future is called an iNtuitor (N). The Sensorversus iNtuitor category is an interesting area of study when it comes to engineering education,because professors are historically intuitors while most engineering

Students are required to upload some of their datafiles on the server to be used in post-lab analysis and homework assignments, linking labexperience to theoretical learning in the course.Finally, the students obtain hands-on experience with the software, which is widely used inindustry for control and data acquisition, thus they get a competitive edge in job hunting.10.
