In the demonstration, six HRC indents aremade on three different cold rolled Steel test blocks, and imaged using a 9600 dpi scanner. Using FijI, anellipse is fitted to each indent, and its area and perimeter values are recorded. In research, MeyerHardness, defined as Load in Kgf divided by the projected area of indentation in mm2, is often used.Meyer hardness correlates extremely well with HRC. From the perimeter and the cone angle of thediamond indenter, the depth of the indentation is calculated.For the assignment, students are provided with images of six HRBw indents on three different coldrolled Brass test blocks.

Lattuca et. al.’s2017 engineering education study found that a curricular emphasis on interdisciplinary topicsand skills (specifically including participating in non-engineering co-curricular activities andhumanitarian engineering projects), “significantly and positively relate to engineering students’reports of interdisciplinary skills” [4]. In this paper, we suggest an interdisciplinary computerprogramming exercise based on Ada Lovelace’s 1843 program for Charles Babbage’s AnalyticalEngine, thus promoting knowledge transfer between the humanities (history) and computerscience.

Having exceptional professional skills is what leads to success in roles withgreater responsibilities in management [6]. This emphasis on professional skills could allude to ashift in expertise from technical to professional skills when switching to a managerial role inlater career stages. The transition away from technical expertise may be difficult for engineers tonavigate, as professional skills align less with the technical skills associated with early career.We present our examination of practicing engineers’ definition of their expertise by genderidentity and
