Paper ID #27849Transition Zone: a Training Ethos Designed to Scaffold a Ph.D. SegreeDr. Carmen Torres-S´anchez, Loughborough University Dr Torres-S´anchez is an Associate Professor at Loughborough University, England, United Kingdom, and the Executive Director of the Centre of Doctoral Training in Embedded Intelligence (CDT-EI). She is the architect of the novel Doctoral Transition ZoneTM Training ethos. She has been working in industry- informed, academically-led education for more than 10 years. Her research interests are in the design and manufacture of multifunctional materials with tailored properties to meet
ASTMstandards for tensile properties of plastics. The model number of extensometer used in the test is634.12E-54.Before the tensile tests, the width and thickness of the center section of each of the specimens aremeasured then entered into the testing program. The tensile specimen is loaded into the testingmachine by attaching the clamps to both ends and the distance between the clamps is measuredand entered into the program. The tensile strain rate applied is 0.2 in/min (0.0847 mm/s). Theprogram records tensile load and elongation, which can be converted to stress – strain curves.Results and discussionThe fractured tensile samples are shown in Figure 1. In general, the samples show brittle fracturedue to relatively small deformation. In order to

that the population in the United States is nolonger as diverse as it once was[5]. As people have emigrated from all parts of the world,cultural groups are represented in much different percentages than 10 years ago. Over the lastcentury much of the diversity evident in the early 1900’s has assimilated into what is referred toas a melting pot, constantly changing. However, universities do not reflect the type and level ofdiversity of the current population[2, 3]. Both of the engineering and engineering technologyprograms, despite higher levels of one underrepresented group or another, still has much higherlevels of white students. Thus the general population that was once in the minority are moving toa more balanced number as related to the
SBxFigure 2: Projectile motion archetypeProjectile motion is confined here to two-dimensions for simplicity as not much morefundamental complexity is gained from including a third dimension to the particle’s motion. Themotion of the particle is constrained to have constant velocity and solutions are usually foundusing three classic kinematics equations. The problem description below shows three points ofinterest in the trajectory, A, B, and C. Each point can have specified its position, S, or velocity,V. Since acceleration in projectile motion is constant, only two constant values, the x- and y-components, are necessary to define the acceleration at all points along the trajectory.
