Pendulum Experiments for a Vibration Laboratory Frank M. Kelso, Ph.D. Mechanical Engineering Department University of MinnesotaAbstractAn introductory course in vibration engineering naturally begins with the basic "building block"concepts on which a deeper understanding is built. The study of single degree of freedom lumpedparameter systems lays the conceptual groundwork needed for studying the behavior of multi-degree of freedom or continuous systems. The simplest single degree of freedom vibratorysystem is of course the pendulum. Pendulum problems illustrate basic vibration theory verynicely, providing a simple and

Studentsmust have a fundamental understanding of mechanical and electrical engineering, but also needto assess the impact of fabrication, packaging and application on the design. This can requireaspects of chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, material science and other assorted fields.This makes a MEMS laboratory based course an ideal channel to introduce students tomultidisciplinary projects.Course Structure The laboratory was developed to add a MEMS portion to the current microfabricationcourse where CMOS transistors are fabricated and tested1.

theirwork.Traditional networking laboratoriesA good network teaching laboratory is essential to support student learning in a Networks course.A traditional networking lab, in addition to the computers, requires networking equipment such asrouters, switches and appropriate connections. The equipment needs to be updated regularly forthe students to be able to apply the skills they learn in the lab directly in the work force.Unfortunately, traditional networking labs are a fairly scarce resource. In addition to the cost ofequipment and updates, it is a challenge to design the lab to allow flexible configurations. Thesenetwork configurations are often not compatible with the campus network.
