II Power Quality and Energy AnalyzerDesign of the BobbinIn an effort to allow students to utilize industrial level equipment in their labs, we approachedour CAD students to design a “bobbin” component where they could employ multiple wraps ofwire. Asking second semester CAD students to design the bobbin introduced them to the designprocess while allowing them to experience variables that are, inevitably, part of any designproject. While the electrical machinery lab instructor provided some basic design objectives,students needed to consider the ever-present constraints of time, cost, and manufacturingprocesses. In this respect, this design project gave students a much better experience than a statictextbook problem.While students would be

The subject is how to develop a power transmission and distribution architecture basedon wireless beaming complementing and reaching beyond the wired power grid. Theprocesses of defining requirements and selecting parameters in this wide-open area, are setout. The education here is not through course lectures but through cross-disciplinary learningon projects. Student experience over the years is reviewed, starting from initial conceptexploration to present refinement. It is argued that millimeter wave beaming is essential, andthat viable end-to-end efficiency can be achieved, to succeed in the marketplace.

functions have also been used in conventional thermodynamics classes on projects whensolving large applied thermodynamic problems. In such cases, the time expended oninterpolation can quite easily constitute the majority of the time required for solving theproblems. The students can easily spend more time interpolating than in learning how to applythermodynamic principles. Therefore, once students have shown mastery of the skills needed tointerpolate tables to obtain properties for substances, more knowledge of thermodynamicprinciples can potentially be assimilated if the interpolation steps associated with homeworkproblems, projects and examinations were automated. Historically, in order to avoid excessivetime expenditure on interpolation, some

The battery for the Chevrolet Volt is a 16 KWh T-shaped Lithium-ion batterythat is roughly 6 feet long and weighs nearly 400 pounds1 or twice the weight of an averageperson. Current batteries represent about one third of the vehicle weight, and that weight is threeto five times what would be desired. Lithium-iron-sulfide batteries are now being studied undera partly government funded Reduced Cost Li-ion (Red Lion) project.17

It is necessary to have an instrumentation system which is able tomonitor and control fuel cell operation under varying conditions. Therefore, a typical fuel celltest system requires high-resolution, isolation, and waveform acquisition capability.

Indeed, in engineering disciplines where social relevance is manifest, such as environmental or biomedical, women are well-represented.Mikic and Grasso30 also note: “the view of engineering as a profession in service to humanity isbecoming more widespread and thus is the inclusion of socially relevant design projectsthroughout the curriculum.” In their project where students design toys to teach children
