Instead, this system is designed to empower users to take part in conversationsabout safety from acquisition through training and project application at every stage of learning.Olin College of Engineering was founded in 1997 with the mission to educate exceptionalengineering innovators and the aspiration to change engineering education broadly. The collegeis an undergraduate-only institution with approximately 350 students and 45 full time faculty.There are no departments at Olin and academic staff and faculty serve together on workinggroups to conduct the business of the college. This collaboration between the machine shop andthe library formed out of the intentional student experience working group. This

with the class.Classroom Introduction of the Knovel DatabaseFor both courses, students were first given a peer-led demonstration of the library homepage, thelibrary subject guides, and then basic entry and use of the Knovel database. The "peer-led"demonstration involved a student being asked to demonstrate on the computer projected to therest of the class, following step-by-step directions from the librarian. Other class membersfollowed along on their own screens. (The peer-led method is applied because of studiesshowing students are more engaged if a peer leads the demonstration, even if he or she has neverdone the activity.18,19,20,21)Next, the class participated in an activity relevant to their particular class subject.

, high quality information and classroom activities is often a daunting proposition. Oneway to alleviate frustration and to avoid reinventing wheels is to use the Manufacturing andEngineering Technologies Education Clearinghouse (METEC). METEC serves as a one stopshop for technology educators in general, and new educators in particular.METEC’s searchable electronic database provides resources pertinent to a broad range ofengineering technologies. Among the vetted materials in the database are course and programoutlines, descriptions of best practices, simulations, texts, activities, videos, PowerPointpresentations, etc. The clearinghouse materials are obtained from numerous sources such asNSF centers and projects, other academic institutions
Management Cooperative grant. With the supportfrom NASA and industry, a MANE 499 course, “Design and Manufacturing for AerospaceIndustry,” was created. This course was designed in the well-known framework, “learning factory”[3]. Through the “learning factory” model, MANE 499 is organized to introduce students to state-of-the-art principles of A&D design and manufacturing. This approach approximates that studentsare working a real world aerospace factory in which tasks are assigned, feedback is given, andperformance is evaluated. Standard project management tools and techniques (Work BreakdownStructure, Gantt chart, configuration management, documentation control, and lean methods) wereused to manage and monitor tasks, schedules, performance

network via standardfile transfer protocols.Modern CNC controls come with block look ahead where the controller loads in multiple lines(typically 30 or more lines) of CNC code ahead of the current code block being executed. Thepre-loaded blocks are preprocessed by the CNC controller, allowing it to adjust the optimumfeedrate for the projected toolpath, and eliminate inherent delays in the servo system, whichincrease with higher feedrates.Modern CNC controllers are able to automatically maintain a constant surface feedrate for atoolpath. This feature helps HPM by maintaining a constant cutting load, improving surfacefinish, tool life, and reduces the probability of tool chatter.At high cutting rates, abrupt direction changes can cause a loss of

It is an excellent tool for helping designand quality teams to focus on product features that will set them apart from their competitors.Additionally, the model helps product developers to concentrate on simultaneous design ofproduct families rather than focusing on one product at-a-time.In the ‘Design for Manufacturing’ course, students learn the Kano analysis and some students dotheir course project using this model to a product of their interest. The paper describes the Kanomodel and how it can be used in product design. Even though the model can be used to definemultiple products simultaneously, the content of the model in this

In STEPS courses students integrate what they are learning inscience, mathematics and communications, couple it with teamwork and project managementtools and build a working prototype of a useful machine. The requirement to start the STEPScourses is that they should complete the first course of Physics and two levels of communicationclass.

The chips are connected to programmable syringepumps. With colored and fluorescent dyes, images and videos of flow characteristics and mixingcan be captured, processed, and analyzed with low-cost CCD cameras and along with imageprocessing software (ImageJ or MATLAB®). Moreover, heats of mixing, heats of reaction, andconvective, conductive, and radiative heat transfer in fluid systems can be analyzed using thermalimage infrared (8-12 microns) cameras.

The pandemic has; however, highlighted the importance of the manufacturingfield as
has a heavyemphasis on theory and mathematical modeling as opposed to a more practice based curricula,which was the standard engineering education approach until the modern approach gained favorin a shift that occurred between 1935 and 1965.6 As a result of this shift, many engineeringstudents do not spend much of their time engaged in actual design and build processes until latein their degree program.7Maker spaces have an opportunity to revolutionize the current system by providing an extra-curricular means for students to engage in more hands-on projects and develop a large range ofthe skills that are currently being underdeveloped. Maker spaces go beyond the traditionalmachine shop environment familiar to the undergraduate curriculum
the basic characteristics of each phase of the process.It should be noted that the Sustainable Product Development Engineering Process (SPDEP)presented above is a specific instance of the well-known concurrent engineering framework.Concurrent Engineering is a concept that promotes cross-functional participation from all projectstakeholders at the beginning of product development, as well as overlapping projects and tasksthroughout the development process. Ideally, concurrent engineering based processes allow forthe completion of a systems design in the shortest time possible.As with any product development process, implementation of the SPDEP requires thepreliminary establishment of the requirements of the target product. These attributes may
