L , L = {a c | c = composite} would also be a non-regular.Well how about an example of concatenation? The answer is yes, and we can proof it by usingthe Goldbach’s conjecture. But since the Goldbach’s conjecture3 has not been proven forsufficiently large numbers, we can use a related result to the Goldbach’ s conjecture by Chen4,5.The result says: Every "large" even number may be written as 2n = p + m where p is a primeand m is the product of two primes. So if we have two non-regular languages L1 and L2 such Proceedings of the 2003 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference The University of Texas at Arlington Copyright 2003, American Society for Engineering

Burned clay bricks have been in use for a long time and use of grouted brick masonrydates in the U.S.A. as far back as in the 1860’s. Laws governing construction with masonry goesback to the 18th century with the Code of Hammurabi; “If a house collapses and kills the owner’sson, the son of the builder shall be put to death”. To date, design and construction requirementsfor masonry structures are specified in the International Building Code which references the Page 14.718.2MSJC.In

The firstgroup of students graduated in July 1995. The graduate programs as conceived and implemented are international in nature. Instruction is in theEnglish language and curriculum content and thesis requirements are typical of those required in engineeringgraduate programs at major U. S. universities. Course instructors for the first two years of the program havebeen faculty from the partnership U.S. universities. Eventually, a near fifly-fifly distribution of U.

thisprocess, students are bringing a variety of ideas of areas they are interested in studying, includingwater quality, air quality and walkability of their city. Using the refined ideas, the research teamadapts the sensors to the students’ question(s), and the student team(s) deploys the sensors. Theteams also simultaneously engage in qualitative data collection that provides more face-to-faceand in depth data about the identified community issue. Students then monitor and analyze datafrom the sensors to answer their question, and present their findings and potential solutions tocommunity members, parents and family members, other youth, and city officials.

We will explore opportunities forhands-on student engagement with data analysis techniques, innovative homework problems, andlab activities. We will conduct assessment and evaluation to determine the impact of CSPs andmake improvements for the next offering of the course in Spring 2021.References[1] G. D. Hoople, J. A. Mejia, D. A.

The injection ofsafety issues at multiple formative and summative evaluation points has been established topromote meaningful hands-on experiences with safety topics and is presented as a teachingtechnique for others to leverage.

Page 26.945.3IntroductionBentley and Kyvik, 2012 found in their studies that faculty members spend more than 50hours of their time every week on the job, out of which only 20 hours are spent doing theactual teaching. Depending on the faculty status, either Tenure-Track or Tenured, or even asa function of the nature of the institution in which one find himself/herself, research orientedor purely teaching institutions as the case may be, these hours can be much higher (Bentley,P.J., and S. Kyvik, S.).It would be needed to inculcate time-efficient teaching practices into these new courses fromhere-on in order to give the students the best and facilitate their learning in

As can be seen, the total harmonicdistortion caused by the small nonlinear loads is in the range of 30%. A major problem of hybridpower generation systems is their sensitivity to nonlinear loads. Figure 11 depicts a major loadchange situation. This figure is battery voltage when a large load of 8 A is connected at 5 s and aload of 9 A is connected at 54 s. The battery takes almost 30 s to recover from the voltage sagcaused by the large load changes. Figure 12 depicts the major voltage sags at the input of theinverter during repeated switching of the 8 A load. These data vividly illustrate

Combined with Oregon and Idaho, the Northwest is home to approximately 170,000(6.8%) of the nation‟s federally-enrolled tribal members3.African Americans, Hispanics and Alaska Indians/American Natives (AI/AN) together onlyaccount for 11.3% of the science, engineering, technology and math (STEM) workforce4 outsideof universities, but make up 29% of the population5. From 2000-2020, the non-Hispanic laborforce will grow by 9%, while the Hispanic labor force will grow by 77%6. Tremendous disparitystill exists in the educational achievements of adults from different ethnic groups (Table 1),suggesting that the changing demographics will create a significant workforce problem in STEMfields in the future. For example, over 41% of Hispanic students never

PAESMEM scholars’ valued mentoring practices, thepresent study has generated recommendations for mentors seeking to advance their mentees’efforts in STEM fields. Mainly, mentors should attempt to establish a caring and respectfulrelationship with the mentee. Mentors should also carefully balance the level of structure presentin the relationship so as to allow the protégé to maintain independence while still encouragingtheir success. More specific suggestions will require additional research to be performed on thepractices utilized by PAESMEM recipients.Bibliography1. Mueller, S. (2004).

. The plexiglass platform wasexactly what we wanted it to do, while being extremely user initially designed as an L-shape as seen in fig. 2, butfriendly and was an open source platform. was later changed to a square platform for more space. Due to the fact, the low cost remote control car’s steeringmechanism consisted of just a DC motor; we used a motordriver that paired well with the Arduino Uno to turn theArduino signal into a physical action. While the initial prototype completed its intended task, weunderstood our final model would require a higher velocityand a more advanced steering control. This brought us to thebeginning of our senior year. IV. I N -D E P T H D E S IG N C O N
