description, methodology and results are presentedin the following sections.Description of the Senior Design ProjectIn this senior design project, students should minimize the energy consumption of an industrialrobot without changing its planned task defined by manufacturers. The LR Mate 200iD/4S R-30iB Fanuc industrial robot [13] was employed in the research study defined in this project. Thisrobot is shown in Fig. 1 and has 6 axes, with 550 mm reach area. The motion range of Joints 1 to6 of this robot is 340°, 230°, 402°, 380°, 240°, and 720°, respectively. The maximum speed ofJoints 1 to 6 is also 460°/s, 460°/s, 520°/s, 560°/s, 240°/s, 720°/s, respectively. The maximumpayload capacity of this robot is 4 kg. The ultimate goal is to develop MATLAB

Within this context, we have set up an engineeringstation, where children and adults are invited to engage in engineering design-build activitieswith the understanding that participating in these activities also entails participation in theresearch study. The child(ren) and adult(s) attend to two different engineering challenges(“design a tower as tall as this plant out of foam blocks” and “design as tall a tower as you canusing the Dado Squares”), working on each task until the child is ready to be done, while video-recorders capture the family’s interactions (see Figure 1).

Doped Fiber Laser (EDFL) pulse (Clark ERFlaser) was dispersed across the AOM’s aperture and was then modulated in aconventional pulse shaper. The past experiment tested 87 channels with channel-spacingof 0.41 nm using a 518-MHz modulator, and 120 channels with channel-spacing of 0.29nm using an 148-MHz modulator. In both cases, the full width at half maximum(FWHM) of the pulse spectrum was 35 nm, and the updating rate of the AOMs was 3 µs.Starting from the original pulses, this modulation creates time slots of 43 ps and 63.4 ps;thus the equivalent speed of the transmission will be 2.0 Tb/s and 1.9 Tb/s in a highlymultiplexed system. Such a system requires a terahertz-multiplexing device, such as theTOAD 18-20; similar devices can be used as

There are approximately 440 full- and part-timefaculty members, the majority of which are tenured or tenure-track. Eighty-three percent are inSTEM disciplines.Many of these professors were teaching several years ago when it was common for freshmen inpacked lecture halls to hear, “Look to your right; look to your left. One of you won’t be here thistime next year.” Although that is no longer the accepted slogan at Missouri S&T, and studentsgenerally hear more empathetic messages from faculty on campus dedicated to their success,teaching strategies have not evolved all that much over the years

: Neural Networks, ART, FAM, GFAM, GEAM, Hybrid, Genetic Algorithm I. INTRODUCTIONTHE Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) architecture was developed by Grossberg (1976) [1].In 1992 Mr. Carpenter developed a Neural Network (NN) called Fuzzy ARTMAP (FAM) [2].FAM architectures became very popular and were used in the literature to successfully solvemany classification problems. Researchers then developed other ART NN‟s such as EAM [5]and GAM [6] that used different category representations to attain better performance and toreduce the effect of a phenomenon called Category Proliferation (CP) (Creating extra categoriesfor better performance especially when used with noisy data).

Thus, these teaching methodologies can be considered like one another.PBL is a pedagogical approach that has gained popularity in academic circles due to its emphasison integrated and cohesive learning activities [76]. Barber [77] contends that PBL, as a newteaching model, places students at the forefront and redefines the role of the teacher. Mills [71]reports positive outcomes of PBL in engineering education, demonstrating its effectiveness forboth students and teachers over a decade-long evaluation. In engineering education, PBL hasemerged as one of the most frequently used teaching methods, known for promoting designthinking. According to Van 's [79] study, an 'engineering

Oddly universities and institutions7 appear to produce competent scientists andmathematicians but they deliver only mediocre engineering graduates when consideringpractitioner needs. Decades back some forecasted an erosion of the nation‟s ability to technicallycompete in the emerging world market. Others warned of serious losses in market share thatwould be accompanied by economic downturns in the U.S. and subsequent job shortages.
