TMS320C6000 DigitalSignal Processor (DSP) series is Texas Instrument’s most powerful DSP processor. The C6713 is thelatest in this series. A number of wide bandwidth analog expansion daughter boards are also beinginstalled as part of this laboratory upgrade. During the 1980’s, with the continuous increasingspeed of digital computers, it became apparent that digital signal processing would become aviable alternative to analog signal processing. In recognizing this trend, digital signal processinglecture and laboratory courses were introduced into the Electrical Engineering curriculum atSouthern University during the early 1990’s. Both Motorola and Texas Instruments digital signalprocessors have been used in the laboratory. The DSP boards have included

We distinguishconceptual understandings about the NOEK from the epistemic practices of engineering

calculate stress, stiffness and fatigue life of theshaft. This is an excellent example of combined loading with multiple stress concentrations. Once the design is finalized, students use a suitable CAD package such as Pro-Engineer tocreate a 3-D model of the final gear, bearing, and shaft layout. A housing will be developed tosupport the gear, bearing, and shaft subsystems, which will also contain enough volume forlubrication, and will contain necessary features for assembly and maintenance. At this time, thestudent may not have had a course in finite element analysis, so the structural integrity of thegearbox housing is not analyzed. Examples of student work can be shown in Fig. 4

How could programs at each institution realistically provide relevant support andmentoring for these isolated individuals? It was decided that the partnership would create an integrated set of programsdesigned to address these problems across the four institutions. These programs wouldoriginate from previous ADVANCE grants at these institutions that would be adaptedwith specific intersectionalities in mind. Furthermore, the programs were also designedto

introductory courses in semiconductor physics.Studies of introductory semiconductor courses have indicated that geometries, geometry-dependent properties of crystals, and an analysis of electrical, thermal, optical, orchemical energies in the electronics world, are among the common topics taught inintroductory courses in semiconductor physics. A review of available software tools forteaching and learning semiconductor geometries indicates that there is a lack of highlyeffective visualization methodologies for commonly used semiconductor materialstructures. The purpose of this paper is to describe a virtual environment tutorial that hasbeen developed to supplement a typical course in semiconductor physics
