systems involved were extremely dilute.The rigorous equations were known for some time and one of these is as follows: y2 V dy Z= ∫ (1) ky a S y1 (1 − y )( y − y i ) (1 − y )ilmThree additional equations could be written to accomplish the same result. Z is thenecessary height of packing. Since some of the terms did not change greatly in a dilutesystem it was common practice to remove some of these from under the integral sign andmaking use of an average value between the top of the column and the bottom.

. The first topic is steady-state three-phase inductionmotor theory. The presented motor theory is based on the equivalent circuit model.5 Thismodel requires rotor and stator resistances, rotor and stator leakage reactance, and the motormagnetization reactance parameters. Locked-rotor and no-load tests find these parameters.Solving the equivalent circuit model gives the rotor and stator currents as a function of motorslip, s. After rotor current is obtained, the rotor developed power and motors losses can be foundfor any operating point. The tutorial introduces the motor developed torque equation anddemonstrates how to plot the motor torque-speed curve from the developed power found fromthe equivalent circuit.Machine load factor and efficiency

Students in theMechanical Engineering (ME) department at the University of Iowa (UI) can earn the certificateby selecting elective courses in the baccalaureate degree. This certificate program replaced andaugmented an existing undergraduate certificate in naval hydrodynamics, taking advantage of anexpanding departmental curriculum in control, autonomous systems, and artificial intelligence.Therefore, the program objective is to

can greatly improve students’understanding of thermodynamics by visualizing property relationships. As a highly visual andintuitive tool, property diagrams eliminate the time devoted to mastering steam tables. Afterteaching steam tables for multiple years within a year-long thermal-fluid sciences course andrecognizing the poor pedagogic utility, the steam tables were entirely replaced by thetemperature-entropy (​T-s​) diagram as the primary source for water thermodynamic properties.This paper discusses the implementation, challenges, and the outcomes of this introduction.Apart from developing instructions aligned solely to property diagrams, a number of visual toolswere identified, adopted, and developed to facilitate the transition.

). For overthree decades, many researchers conducted various conceptualization studies on PCK (Grossman1990; Cochran et al., 1993; Loughran et al., 2012; Van Driel et al., 1998; Gess-Newsome 1999;Magnusson et al., 1999; Hashweh, 2005; Abell, 2008; Park and Oliver, 2008; Kind, 2009). Amongthese models, Magnusson et al. (1999)’s PCK model has been widely used in pre-service and in-service teacher education. In these prior efforts, most of the studies have argued for threeknowledge domains: content (subject) knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and contextualknowledge were the basic domains affected by teachers’ PCK (Abell, 2008; Cochran et al., 1993;Gess-Newsome, 1999; Grossman, 1990). In our approach, we identified four knowledge domains by

The project s research questions are: 1. What does marginalization look like within engineering classrooms where teamwork is a primary feature? 2. How is marginalization legible (or not) to instructors at the classroom level? 3. What are the different ways that instructors respond to incidents of peer-to-peer marginalization? 4.

formulatedinterventions to aid these populations (e.g., [5]–[7]), few have adequately questioned the metric ofsuccess itself: retention. To be specific, “retention” tracks only the percentage of students whobegin their undergraduate career in a chosen major and successfully matriculate, which may be toocoarse of a measure for several reasons: 1. It counts students who switch out of a STEM major and flourish within a new major as failures (cell “L+” in Figure 1). 2. It counts students who remain within their originally declared STEM major but flounder academically, dislike the material, or do not envision themselves pursuing a career in the field after graduation as successes (cell “S-” in Figure 1). 3. It ignores students who transfer into a

engineering program is that students canconduct mechanical system designs including mechanical component design. To design beam-like components such as beams and shafts, we must analyze the loading conditions on thecomponents, that is, the Shear force and Bending moment diagrams (the S/B diagrams). So, theability to draw the S/B diagrams on beam-like components is an important skill for mechanicalengineering students. In our mechanical engineering program, the S/B diagrams of a beam wereintroduced during Engineering Statics by using the method of sections in the first semester oftheir sophomore year. In the second semester of their sophomore year in the course Mechanicsof Materials, the S/B diagrams were discussed again by using both the method of

To remedy this situation, the current project, funded throughan NSF S-STEM grant, developed the “UC Irvine Pathways to Engineering Collaborative” tohelp low-income students from diverse backgrounds to successfully transfer to and persist in theengineering program of a four-year university. The designed program targets the population ofstudents who have the ambition to pursue engineering degrees, but often lack the resources orexposure to engineering opportunities.
