Authors believe that it ishigh time that the discussed surface parameters, tools, filters and mathematical modeling ofmethods be included in all design, manufacturing and capstone project courses (freshmenthrough senior year). A better educated workforce would be able to contribute significantlyhigher to quality tools and advanced metrology. It is an evolutionary process, i.e., standards keepconstantly changing; however, it must transition smoothly into the curriculum. It is imperativethat course instructors keep up to date with the latest standards, and implement them as shortinteractive modules. In an ongoing effort, based upon the contents of this paper, the authors havemade several instructional modules on surface finish. These modules

For example, during thefinal official evaluation of the class organized by the university, some students commented:• “This course is only theory based. Student can not have any practical knowledge about the different machining process.• “Student should have the opportunity to do practical manufacturing project.”It has also been found that the attendance rate became lower as the class went on, and in somecases it even dropped to below 30%, implying the lack of the

AM machines are used widely bystudents [1]. The ease of prototype manufacturing in 3D printing encourages students to preferAM machines to conventional manufacturing machines in building their projects.

Finally, some of thecosts associated with the prototyping and forming technologies are outlined to provide a measureof the resources required to implement this strategy in a design curriculum.Why net-shaped processing mattersWhile many product design courses utilize rapid prototyping to communicate the form and fit ofdesigns1, the focus of this paper is to

ConclusionsThe primary objective of this project was to analyze how well the grayscale thresholding methodcan evaluate porosity in a thermal barrier coating. It was found that the MATLAB software wasable to estimate porosity within about 0.5 %. The knowledge gained from this image processmethod should be able lead to a greater understanding, and eventually an increase in the lifecycle durability of the coating, and how porosity affects that durability too.6. Future worksA downside to this system is that the program takes significantly longer to analyze large images.The ideal solution to this problem would be to design the system in a way which breaks
