Challenges of running a successful 3D-printer lab are addressed. A number of student projects are described. Based on the shear amountof 3D prints and their quality it can be concluded that the acceptance of this technology is highwithin the undergraduate engineering student population.Introduction Early laboratory demonstrations of additive rapid prototyping systems were conductedthirty years ago (1984). However, the acceptance of these systems in undergraduate engineeringcurricula was relatively slow due to the high cost of the equipment, the high cost

The authors propose that students learn how to truly learnto use a simulator by developing one from scratch. This simulator is developed over the course ofa semester by coupling the active learning techniques of the flipped classroom model and project-based learning. In the course, students watch videos prior to class to learn about modeling andimplementation techniques.

UniversityAbstract Amidst concerns of climate change, pollution, and a rapid increase in oil prices, hybrid cars have become more favorable than traditional fuel cars. However, purchasing a new hybrid car is an expensive endeavor. The purpose of our project was to design a combination device that can be installed in an old gas car to give it the advantages of a hybrid. Companies such as Toyota and Tesla are using similar technical principles, but the essence of our approach is the development of a device compatible with older vehicles. This allows customers who previously owned the vehicle to enjoy the same performance improvements and fuel economy as an expensive hybrid at a lower price. The core idea of the design is regenerative braking, which

We call this phenomenon discursiveturbulence. In our experience, signs of discursive turbulence include affective intensity and co-existing contradictory beliefs. We share four examples to illustrate ways in which discursiveturbulence appears, drawn from people with varying degrees and types of engagement with ourtransdisciplinary work: i) project team members, ii) a

Expanding Structural Engineering Education through Virtual RealityAbstractStructural Engineering is an abstract field of study that relies heavily on students’ ability tovisualize. Due to the scale of structural projects (e.g. bridges, buildings), it is not possible toprovide students hands-on experiences manipulating and handling structural elements. Bringingstudents to the construction site is one of the most effective ways of reinforcing the subject matteras well as instilling a sense of awe and motivation for academic progress. However, the schedulingof field trips is very difficult due to students’ academic and work schedules along with changes insite access due to COVID-19.
