major Midwestern coal mining region, on theOhio river, and coal-fired steam power plants are an integral part of the engineering landscape.Some of the UE students have had co-op or internship experience at a power plant. As a result,the UE students, in general, seem to be more “power plant savvy”. Industry in Southfield,Michigan (i.e., Detroit) is dominated, not by the Rankine cycle, but by different types of powercycles; the Otto and Diesel cycles take lead roles in the Southeastern Michigan engineeringlandscape because of the auto industry. LTU students tend to be less interested in coal-firedsteam power generation and more interested in internal combustion engines.As shown in Table 7, the UE students were more comfortable with the Rankine

proven to be a significant facility and an integral part of our educationalprograms, and we believe it is unique. Students who participate in the design realization projectshoused in the Ware Lab are highly recruited and have no difficulty in becoming contributors inreal-world hardware projects. In addition to the project experience, the large number of toursthrough the Ware Lab, typically several per week, offers the students numerous opportunities tomake short presentations on their projects, thus developing their speaking and presentation skills.

Science is a required course for freshmen inMechanical Engineering and an elective for other engineering majors. The course is the firstengineering course for most engineering students in the college and therefore it is challenging toexplain some concepts and discuss the application of course materials in their future study andcareer. It is well known that project based learning activities motivates the students to learn newconcepts faster. To help students engage in the class, a comprehensive term-long project wasdeveloped, which combines material testing, simple design for engineering applications, materialselection for the design, and testing of the failure of the designed structure. In this project,students were required to select materials

. Programming is an abstract thinking process that involves critical thinking andcomputational design. Without effective programming references, it is challenging for students tolearn programming, as well as for instructors to teach programming.To overcome these challenges, this paper proposed developing on-line personalized adaptive learning(PAL) tools through integrating state-of-the-art pedagogies with deep learning technologies toenhance programming skills of engineering students, especially at HBCUs. PAL is an emergingpedagogical approach enabled by smart learning environments. AI techniques such as machinelearning have been successfully applied to improve the recommendation satisfaction by identifyingPAL patterns in online education and

In the process of teaching robotics technology to students at agraduate or undergraduate level, it becomes necessary to synchronize more than one robotic armfor the purpose of demonstrating the interaction between robots commonly found in industrialsettings. There are several approaches to doing this. The simplest approach is to connect the

distribution on the surface of the model racecars anduse Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) to quantitatively measure the flow field around the car thatcontributes to the lift, drag and pressure measurements. By comparing the data from different cartypes students learn about lift and drag. This paper describes the experiments, explains how toinstrument the cars, and presents a set of typical results for five different model car types.IntroductionAn automobile is one of the most basic mechanical engineering systems. Cars, and in particularracecars, are one of the things that attract students to the study of mechanical engineering, and thestudy of automobiles has entered the undergraduate mechanical engineering curriculum in a varietyof ways.

The DSL Forum has defined an ADSL interoperability test specification, known asTR-048, which is supported by all key Service Providers, access IC manufacturers andIndependent Test Labs.

In early offerings, test takers were commonlythose students who ended up applying to select, prestigious institutions. Over the years, thenumber and demographics of students taking the SAT has grown dramatically [6].Currently, SAT scores can range from 200 to 800 for each of two major sections: evidence-basedreading and writing and the math section. Possible total scores range from 400 to 1600, a sum oftest results from the two 800-point test sections. An additional essay score is also included. TheSAT Total score was historically maxed at 1600
