, andUNIFAC. Initially, use of equation-of-state methods was restricted to hydrocarbon and light gasmixtures. However, recent advances in the formulation of mixing rules, e.g. by Wong andSandler12, are permitting applications to mixtures containing polar organic molecules as well.The important result of all this effort in thermodynamics and mathematical modeling withnumerical methods is that computer-aided process design can be accomplished rapidly and moreaccurately than by pre-computer hand-calculation methods. Furthermore, the emergence of veryfast and inexpensive personal computers with large memory has given every practicing chemicalengineer easy access to such methods. Computer-aided process design has been wholeheartedlyembraced by the

As do many other colleges of engineering, wehave several pre-college initiatives aimed at increasing the technological literacy of K-12students. We believe that these efforts should be supplemented at the university level topromote technological literacy for non-STEM students at SJSU. Because of our location inSilicon Valley, we have the expertise to offer technological literacy courses that could provideall students with a greater understanding of the local high tech

The actuator is used to move the boxfrom this position to a vertical position and back, this actuator provides 400 lbs. of force with amaximum extension of 24”. The winch is responsible of lifting the wheelchair to the inside of thebox for storage, and lowering it back to the ground.
