As a highly visual andintuitive tool, property diagrams eliminate the time devoted to mastering steam tables. Afterteaching steam tables for multiple years within a year-long thermal-fluid sciences course andrecognizing the poor pedagogic utility, the steam tables were entirely replaced by thetemperature-entropy (​T-s​) diagram as the primary source for water thermodynamic properties.This paper discusses the implementation, challenges, and the outcomes of this introduction.Apart from developing instructions aligned solely to property diagrams, a number of visual toolswere identified, adopted, and developed to facilitate the transition.

life cycle engineering has been developed based on this approach through a multi-university research project, entitled “Constructionism in Learning: Sustainable Life CycleEngineering (CooL:SLiCE).” The pedagogic significance of CooL:SLiCE is that it enables betterlearning within the sustainable engineering domain by utilizing effective learning modules forpersonalized environmentally responsible product design. The CooL:SLiCE platform provides aweb-based portal with three learning modules: 1) Visualization and online computer-aideddesign (CAD), 2) Sustainable product architecture and supplier selection (S-PASS), and 3)Manufacturing analysis.

The Robotic Arm controller consists offour PIDs (one per joint). 𝐾𝑝, 𝐾𝑖, 𝐾𝑑 for each PID loop is calculated separately.This process can be time-consuming. Alternatively, you can tune all four PID loopssubject to system-level requirements. MATLAB has the tools to calculate PIDvalues. The transfer function of a PID controller is found by taking the Laplacetransform.We can also define a PID controller in MATLAB directly using the transferfunction, for example: Kp = 1; Ki = 1; Kd = 1; C = Kp + Ki/s + Kd*s C

The project is currently in itsinitial phase, with instrument development and pilot testing currently underway.Multiple studies show significant gaps between school and work with respect to engineeringpractice 1-3. That gap is clear, for example, in a recent American Society of MechanicalEngineering (ASME) survey that found weaknesses among new graduates in skills includingpractical experience, systems perspectives, project management, problem solving, and design 4, 5.Equally important, industry supervisors identified such gaps more frequently than early careerengineers or academic department heads 4, reinforcing Stevens et al.’s claim

Students accumulate transfer student capital,or knowledge about the transfer process, at sending institutions (i.e., the place(s) where studentsbegin their degree paths), receiving institutions (i.e., the final degree-granting institution), andpotentially from non-institutional sources. The development of transfer student capital maycome from experiences related to learning and study skills, course learning, perceptions of thetransfer process, academic advising and counseling, and experiences with faculty.

bringing the entrepreneurial mindset to engineering education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 The rise of rapid prototyping in a biomedical engineering design sequenceIntroductionPrototyping has always played an important role in the design process as way to determineconceptual viability and iterate upon an idea. Over the last decade, the decreasing costs,improved accuracy, and wide-spread availability of rapid prototyping (RP) technology haslowered the barriers to early-stage prototyping. At universities, the result has been the rise ofmaker’s spaces, skill-based pop-up classes and rapid design challenges. In this paper, we explorethe history of rapid prototyping throughout the 1990’s and 2000
