. Taking thetransform of both sides of equation (2) and solving for the transform of x(t), we obtain X ( s ) = W ( s ) F ( s ) + W ( s )  mx′ ( 0 ) + ( ms + c ) x ( 0 )  (3)Here X(s) denotes the transform of the response x(t), F(s) denotes the transform of the input f(t), 1and W ( s ) = 2 denotes the so-called transfer function. Clearly, W(s) depends only on ms + cs + kthe system parameters, F(s) depends only on the input, and the term in brackets depends on thesystem parameters and the initial state of the system. Thus, the representation of the systemresponse given by equation (3) makes it easy to distinguish between the effects of systemparameters, input, and initial

The transcripts have been uploaded into Atlas.ti (a qualitative dataanalysis software program) and speakers will be identified with their salient characteristics asthey reported on their pre-qualification surveys. As analysis progresses, this will allow theresearch team to, for example, compare experiences and responses of Navy veterans to Armyveterans or mechanical engineering students to electrical engineering students.Preliminary Focus Group FindingsFrom: C.

student.First Class Meeting - Anxiety ReductionAt the very first class meeting, the instructor tries to remove the anxieties of first year Circuits(affectionately called “Snircuits” by the instructor) students. Many of these students, especiallythe non-majors, are quite intimidated by Electrical Circuits even at the most fundamental levelbecause they can‟t “see” what‟s happening before them. A significant portion of the non-majorsare taking the course for the second time and / or have avoided taking it until they are upperclassmen increasing their anxiety ever further. In the first session, the instructor does not review the syllabus, etc. To some of the students thesyllabus is the only subject at the university that is more boring than the subject of

application, starting at $14,000 for a model with a maximumflow velocity of 0.3 m/s and a 70 in2 test cross-section, much less than the 400 in2 test cross-section needed.This paper describes the conversion of a pre-existing 24 foot diameter 4 foot deep above-groundpool into a variable flow-rate “water tunnel” facility using $500 of additional equipment. Steadystate flow rates of 0.89 m/s are achieved using an 80 pound thrust (rated) trolling motor poweredby a pulse-width-modulated motor controller drawing approximately 970 W of electrical power.Calculations indicate that approximately 400 pounds of rated thrust will be required to reach ourgoal of 2.0 m/s flow rates near the outer edge of our pool river simulator.1 Introduction and Motivation1.1

These products imply that domestic manufacturing has become a fadedconcept. The truth is not found on consumer sales receipts. In fact, the United States is still theworld‟s largest manufacturing economy, producing 21percent of all manufactured goods6, andvalued at $1.64 trillion6 in 2008. The size of this amount is difficult to digest, but by itself, $1.64trillion would represent the world‟s 8th largest economy6.

first year of graduate school, most students are asked to do a literature searchfor a class, or are beginning to look at prior work as they decide on a focus for their thesis,dissertation, or Master‟s project. At that point, they realize that they will not be able to findeverything they need with their current set of Web-searching tools and skills.Engineering librarians are challenged to engage with these new students at just the right time.Properly marketed, online tutorials may provide part of the solution. This paper explores how theauthor used citation analysis and discussions with faculty, students, and colleagues to design aset of tutorials that teach graduate students both how to find what they need, and why they needit in the first

Other conditions on the choice of k2 and m2, such as limiting the amplitudes of X2, Page 22.247.7and / or restrictions on the allowed new natural frequencies, are then applied.Consider the following numerical values, in which the forcing frequency is close to the originalnatural frequency: m1 = 10 Kg, k1 = 2000 N/m, F1,0 = 100 N, ω = 13.5 rad/s. Note that theoriginal frequency is k1 m1 = 14.14 rad/s which is quite close to 13.5 rad/s. The absorbercondition gives: k2 m2 = 13.5 rad/s. The amplitude of X2 is F1,0 /k2 and this
