definitions and descriptions, an alternative workingdefinition for troubleshooting would be a type of problem solving that analyzes a faulty systemto identify the fault(s) in the system and then pursue the appropriate procedures to correct thefault(s) in a timely manner.Engineering is one of the domains where well-developed troubleshooting skills can frequentlymake a substantial impact, e.g., when an engineer finds and fixes a problem that has shut down amass transit line. Significantly, it has been observed that the engineers entering industry havepoorly developed troubleshooting skills because they gain little hands-on experience and theyunderuse test equipment in the typical U.S. undergraduate engineering curriculum [5].

, and across questions posed by students and instructors, individually. Thehigh frequency of generative design questions is particularly meaningful when compared to twoanalogous studies of peer critiques within a conventional face-to-face setting, in which low-levelquestions were more prevalent. These findings overall support written, asynchronous designcritiques as a useful mode for enhancing exchanges of feedback between student peers.References[1] M. Mandala, C. Schunn, S. Dow, M.

. noted in their work, these process based, cognitive theory approaches were derived either adhoc or through controlled experiments that use simple tasks. The suitability of these models fordesign problems that are much more complex has never been investigated. This lack ofinvestigation and difficulties met in process based measurements of ideation effectiveness ledShah et al. to consider outcome based metrics for their study of engineering design [7]. As such,Shah et al. developed a framework to measure ideation effectiveness in simple and complexdesign situations.Shah et al.’s framework includes metrics that measure the effectiveness of formal ideageneration methods. The framework addresses that engineering design must be novel – unusualand

Second, similar benefits accrue to those students who develop ties with other studentswho themselves have broader ties.”Social Network AnalysisSocial Network Analysis (SNA) has been used since the 1930s in the social and behavioralsciences.

threshold, piecewise linear, sigmoid, tansigmoid and Gaussian are usedfor activation.3.2. Control Vibration control techniques for flexible structures are generally classified into twocategories: passive and active control 20. Passive control utilizes the absorption property ofmatter and thus is realized by a fixed change in the physical parameters of the structure, forexample adding viscoelastic material to increase the damping properties of the flexiblemanipulator 21, 22, 23. Active control utilizes the principle of wave interference. This is realizedby artificially generating anti-source(s) (actuator(s) to destructively interfere with the unwanteddisturbances and thus result in reduction in the level of vibration.

model rocket manufactured by QuestAerospacet5. A diagram of the rocket is shown in Appendix A at the end of this paper. Thisrocket was chosen because of its unique payload section which is separate from the parachutestowing area. In model rocketry the parachute is deployed by the, “Ejection charge” that isproduced by the rocket engine after the thrust charge is depleted. The ejection charge effectivelyforces the rocket stages to separate and propels the parachute(s) out of the storage chamber. Byhaving a separate payload section, the sensors can be shielded from the violent pressure effectsof the ejection charge.The diameter and length of the combined payload and hollow nose cone sections placeconstraints on the physical design.
