-scale prototype (Figure 1)using toy cars but says it will be easy to build to scale. The team is confident that once the codeis refined, it will be simple to build a bigger scale system.The design could have other uses outside of construction work zones. It could also be useful inpublic safety, for hurricanes and other emergencies, especially to close roads and route traffic inone direction. If there’s a power outage, and traffic lights are inoperable, this system can be usedat these locations, a s well.

analysis/design principles for UAVs are very similar to the principles developed over the years andused successfully for the analysis/design of manned aircraft. A UAV designer need to know how to integratecomplex, multi-disciplinary systems, and to understand the environment, the requirements and the designchallenges. A UAS is much more than a reusable air vehicle or vehicles. The UAS includes five basicelements: 1. The Environment in which the UAV(s) or the Systems Element operates (e.g., the airspace,the data links, communications system). 2. The air vehicle(s) or the Air Vehicle Element. 3. The groundcontrol station or the Mission Control Element. 4. The payload(s) or the Payload Element. 5. The launchand recovery systems which includes the

The streamline visualization activity is described to students asDesign-Build-Test-Communicate (DBTC) practice: • Design: a visual that shows how water flows around an ROV to help determine center of drag (aka center of pressure) • Build: prototype using dominoes falling as the ”streamlines” around the ROV • Test: use a rod to start all lines of dominoes falling at once; record video; note where the dominoes fall “slower” around the ROV; interpret how the shape and orientation of the ROV contributes to “slower flow” and increased drag • Communicate: make 1-2 slides on why you chose this design; picture(s) of the
