As the shear strength approaches zero, thesoil approaches a condition of liquefaction, which has been responsible for the failure ofembankments, foundations, quay walls, etc.Darcy’s LawIn most soil mechanics analyses Darcy’s law, which is known from the field of mechanics ofhydraulics, is sufficiently applicable to the flow of water through soil media to result insatisfactory solutions for engineering purposes. Darcy’s law may be stated as velocity, v, isproportional to the hydraulic gradient, i, or v = f(i) or v = ki, where k is the coefficient ofpermeability. For quantity of flow q = kiA, where A is the cross-sectional area. Since the valuesof permeability for coarse gravels to sands, silts and

After the presentations and Q&A sessions, each team receiveddetailed grading rubrics, ensuring transparency in assignment grading. Students were apprisedthat the Course Exit survey would feature three questions regarding the elimination of rubrics ina senior-level course, emphasizing anonymity to foster honest opinions without fear ofretaliation.The decision to eliminate the rubric and empower students to self-assess their presentationcontent and style stemmed from a significant factor—the prior workshop on HeilmeierCatechism during Capstone 1.

three consecutive days. The three sub-topics are 1) AssetManagement Overview and Lifecycle Cost, 2) Asset Maintenance and Reliability, and 3)Managing Aging Assets. Each day, the course was held for two sessions with a break in between.The morning session comprised lectures, an hour of industry expert speaking session, and 15minutes of Q&A. The afternoon session was reserved for student evaluations and study caseactivities on the topics learned in the morning. The themes covered in the course are not often partof Bachelor’s-degree curricula, especially at electrical engineering schools. The aim of these topicswas to advance the students’ creativity and their ability to evaluate engineering problems and,accordingly, employ innovative decision

Questions naturally arose andclarifications/interpretations were sought as an entire laboratory section, occasionally using the Q & A webpage on the MineMadness website. Conceptual design was the next activity, and in many respects the most difficult. A traditional brainstormingsession (e.g. Adams [5]) was implemented semi-privately with each design team focusing initially on how to “get-over-the-wall”(believed to be THE tough problem and a good place to start the design effort) with the
