In both courses, studentsrecord predicted torsional rigidity and predicted chassis weight for their respective designs. Thejunior Vehicle Design I students measured torsional rigidity of two completed FSAE vehicles.Assessment of relevant student learning outcomes for each course and student feedback arepresented.IntroductionThis paper provides a tutorial for using the CATIA V5 Generative Structural Workbench todesign a space frame. Junior level vehicle design students demonstrate the application of theprocess to their own individual FSAE chassis designs. In parallel

Granta CES EduPack is a comprehensivematerials science software program that is available to the students at the junior and senior levelwithin the ME program. In past offerings, CES EduPack has been introduced at the end of thecourse at a basic level to introduce the students to concepts of materials selection. Prior studentshave not considered the software as a tool for materials selection in their mechanical design andcapstone projects in the past, likely

environmentalchallenges they will face in the decades ahead.” The recent Next Generation Science Standards(NGSS) emphasize the influence and interdependence of science, engineering, and technologyon society [2], yet many science teachers are ill-prepared to teach these in their existingcurricular environments [3], [4], [5]. For high school students to successfully engage withengineering practices, engineering projects need to be authentic, interdisciplinary, and feasiblefor teachers within existing curricular time, materials, and standards requirements [6], [7].The author, a high school physics teacher, developed and implemented a curriculum unit toaddress these needs with the support of a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded ResearchExperience for Teachers

In this project, students will develop and test their own prototype system e.g., emulationof a backhoe or a stamping device duty cycle.The reason for the modularization is to offer the option that each module can be offered as a topicin any existing application-based course. Courses with, for example, design, energy, sustainabilitycontent can benefit from the use of any of the proposed modules. Under this development plan allmodules are offered in a single course in order to test and refine them, but it is well known thatthe trend nowadays is to reduce the number of total credits in existing BS programs.

High traffic under limited bandwidth conditions results in asignificant number of dropped connections and excruciatingly slow speeds. Coupled with thepractice of sporadic firmware updates for the majority of commercial routers, consumers usuallyhave to purchase new hardware every two years to maintain consistent speeds.
