make manufacturing flow smoothly. 4. DFV determines tolerance using tolerance analysis. Designers have a tendency to arbitrarily assign tolerances to critical components in products. Using scatter plots (Bhote, 2000) tolerances can be decided on critical components that are close enough to achieve the functional requirement and at the same time are not Page 23.664.6 too restrictive to unnecessarily increase the manufacturing cost. An example of 6 how this can be done using Shainin’ s Red X and Green Y ideas (Bhote, 2000) is shown in Figure 3

E-mail invitations to participate were initially sent to all 158department chairs in the United States and later those in Canada requesting participation from thefaculty members teaching the relevant course(s). A number of instructors outside of NorthAmerica were also invited to participate. A separate request was sent to the instructors of recordfor senior design course during the 2011-2012 academic year based on information posted online
over the chip. The camera plugs into the USB portof a PC and produces videos (30 frames/s) of fluid flow. The magnification ranges from 10X to500X. Other camera types and set-ups are of course workable as well, including higher-endconsumer CCD cameras. The quantification of flow rate can be made adding a graduated scale inthe image, such as with a thin plastic ruler placed along the flow channel which shows theposition of the flow front in each frame along with the time for that frame. From this analysis,the flow velocity can be accurately determined as a function of time. A common analysisobjective is to determine the pressure drop ∆𝑃 between two points as a function of flow rate Q orfluid velocity v. ∆𝑃 = 𝑓

work: Gantt chart visual method choice for book chapterGantt Chart: Typical Development in an F1 Season(Graphic #15)31 Two distinctive race schedules are performed in each F1 season. While the race team desperately tries to win points for the overall championship, development of next season`s car is taking place simultaneously. With the new car being completed only weeks before the following season. Since engine design takes about 18 months two power engineering teams are required, with each leapfrogging the other, providing one engine per every 9 month car development cycle.
