shown at the bottom of this paper. This sheet wasgenerated based on an object selected in the Operation Navigator. If the selected object is agroup, then all objects inside the group are processed. If the selected object is an operation, thenonly the operation is processed. From the sheet, we estimate that the total machining time isaround 181.33 minutes. The machining process is faster than 3D printing of impellers. For the3D models in Figure 4, it took more than 7 hours to print it out.4.5 Outcome evaluationStudents’ evaluation on the course outcome is summarized as Table 1. The items (1a-14) in thistable were generated from the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)program outcome. The lowest grading is 1, which means the

, "description" is used as a label forequations and processes that are used to describe properties and behaviors exhibited by andwithin mechanical systems. As engineers, we see this regularly because we are exposed to newor emerging technologies and processes. The word "expansion" will be used to mean the additionof mathematical terms or processes to an already existing description. A useful example ofexpansion is the Bernoulli equation. At its heart, the Bernoulli equation is an energy equation.The original equation defined by Bernoulli is only slightly different from the equation we usetoday. (My undergraduate fluids professor referred to it as the Modified Bernoulli Equation. Hemade quite a to-do in class about the use of the word "Modified." To
