AAE 35201 is a one-credit laboratory course inaerospace structural mechanics [1] that accompanies AAE 35200 Structural Analysis I Lecture([40], [41]), which is a three-credit lecture course. The AAE 35201 lab course deals withbending members (i.e., Labs 1, 2, and 4), torsion members (i.e., Lab 3), buckling members (i.e.,Lab 5), and rotating-bending members (i.e., Lab 6A), and stress concertation (i.e., Lab 6B) asoutlined in Table 1. For the physical labs, we currently have Labs 1–6A. On the other hand, Lab6B, the stress concentration lab, is presently a virtual-only lab that we implemented in 2020–2021. Although it is labeled Lab 6B and is a part of Lab 6, it can be inserted into any lab,allowing for course planning and

as an effective self-directed tool for open learning via the web. IntroductionIn the design of reinforced concrete structure, formwork design plays a crucial role. It is veryimportant for a designer to consider economy while planning the formwork for the reinforcedconcrete structure. Efficient and economical use of the material of which the forms are built is anintegral part of the design process. The forms for a concrete structure may cost more than theconcrete or the reinforcing steel; and, in some instances, they may cost more than the concreteand the reinforcing steel together (Peurifoy, 1976). The cost of formwork is significant, generallyamounting to anywhere from 40% to 60% of the cost of a

Tests Plan and ResultsThe Fluke logger was set up in the Control room close to the base station. This set upwas used for two reasons. The available power supply in the room was needed and it wasfavorable to be near the base station. The author needed to be nearby in order to start thesystem and the software logging at close intervals. This would also make troubleshootingeasier. When the operation of the Fluke system was verified, the circuits wereconstructed. The thermocouple was attached to the 1.0 K-Ohm resistor and the frontleads of the Fluke data logger were attached to the capacitor. The dc power supply wasset to 25 Volts and output was in the off state. The resistor with the thermocouple waspositioned to one side and the RC circuit on

Two planned experimentsdemonstrate variations in the system using up to two VFDs, two motor-pump combinations, amanual flow control valve, and an electronic flow control valve. The system is instrumentedwith electronic flow meters and pressure transducers, and integrated into the Labviewinstrumentation control and data acquisition software. IntroductionA VFD works by varying the frequency and amplitude of the input to the electric motor to adjustthe motor speed depending on the system’s demand1. The amplitude and frequency are varied bythe VFD through a series of conversions that change the AC power to DC power, and then themodified AC power is matched to the

Theexpression can then be compared to what is considered to be the basic signs of an emotion.

electrical engineering at the sophomore level. While students are generallyfamiliar with op amps by the time they begin research, concepts such as transimpedance andtransconductance amplifiers are topics that even senior students do not routinely encounter.Furthermore, in beginning coursework, students typically focus on the behavior of a single op amprather than using several to create a more complex circuit. Understanding and debugging a muchmore complex circuit provides students with a rich opportunity to learn beyond what is typicallyoffered in the classroom. The tuning of each stage (through adjusting resistor and capacitor values)of the circuit requires careful planning to ensure proper operation (without clipping) over the entiredesired

We found that this would be an idealsystem to use in our design as this could convert the changing direction of rotation of the axle thatcomes from the seesaw going up and down into one directional rotation.The next step in our design process was to connect this rotational motion to the electricitygenerating device. We decided to use a gear ratio to increase the speed of rotation that would bedriving the generation process, as we planned on using electromagnetic induction to generateelectricity, which outputs more electricity with a higher rotational speed.

Therefore, administrative personnel may choose to offer some course releases or flexibility in the research expectations, especially during challenging times. • Academic Adviser: Academic advisors also play a critical role in helping ease some of the stress students might have. This is because the advisors are a gateway into the courses and hence, they can provide some guidance to students as to which course is more demanding in terms of time and effort. This will allow students to plan their coursework especially if there are other underlying issues
