University, Nagel has helped to develop and teach the six course engineering design sequence which represents the spine of the curriculum for the Department of Engineering. The research and teaching interests of Dr. Nagel tend to revolve around engineering design and engineering design education, and in particular, the design conceptualization phase of the design process. He has performed research with the US Army Chemical Corps, General Motors Research and Development Center, and the US Air Force Academy, and he has received grants from the NSF, the EPA, and General Motors Corporation.Dr. Julie S Linsey, Georgia Institute of Technology Dr. Julie S.

differentengineering disciplines to solve many important manufacturing automaton problems. As a finalproject, students are expected to model and simulate a work cell for the selected application andto perform the same with the physical robots in the lab. They will compare both outcomes forevaluation of the calculated results. Students submit a comprehensive engineering report todocument all requirements. Experiments and projects are designed and implemented in asequence that would allow the students to acquire a complete manufacturing automationexperience. This included on-line and off-line robot programming (uploading and downloadingprograms between robots controllers and simulation software), robot integration (addingperipherals to a robot(s) to create a

flow rates of gases, e.g. air. As a result, wepurchased inexpensive turbine anemometers, designed and marketed to measure windspeeds. We found rotary vane anemometers with a precision of 0.1 m/s for a cost of 30dollars. However, obtaining accurate air velocity measurements with these rotary vaneanemometers requires a tight fit between the anemometer turbine shroud and theexperiment’s outlet, and a careful accounting of cross-sectional flow area through theanemometer.To measure pressure in all experiments, liquid (water) manometers were molded into theflow hardware. In this way, the pressure drop along the pipe flow experiment and thepressure drop and recovery through the Venturi nozzle are easily visualized as waterheights in liquid columns

used on most hob-by CNCs are: • Lead Screws: Ball or ACME lead screws with anti-backlash nuts are commonly used in traditional CNC machines. The lead screws can be chosen with a high start ratio for in- creased speed or a single start ratio to generate more linear force. • Timing Belts: Belt-based systems typically require a pulley, idler(s), and belt clips and can be arranged in either a closed (closed loop belt) or open (belt segment) configuration. Timing belts require constant tension during operation and are prone to stretching during abrupt direction changes, in particular under load. Table 2-2: Comparision of Mechanical Motion Methods
