c American Society for Engineering Education, 2013 An Experiment to Introduce pH-responsive Hydrogels for Controlled Drug Delivery: Mechanical TestingAbstractIn a continuing effort to introduce drug delivery-related experiments for the chemicalengineering curriculum, we are developing an experiment to introduce students to pH responsivehydrogels. These hydrogels have been extensively investigated for controlled drug delivery. Byresponding to the pH environment in the body, which changes depending on location andmetabolic state, a pH-sensitive drug dosage form is able to modulate drug delivery patterns tomeet physiologic requirements and minimize side effects. In a previous experiment for students,hydrogels were

As part of this redesign we designed and built a set of table-top wind tunnel systemseach equipped with instrumentation for measuring flow velocity, pressure and temperature. Thepurpose of this paper is to describe these systems, to describe three lab exercises that use thesesystems, and to present some typical results.INTRODUCTIONThe engineering programs at Union College have recently been redesigned under a major grantfrom the GE Foundation. A college wide task force was formed, and after extensive work, acommon core in
introducing CSL activities into the site remediation course was toadd value to the educational experience for the students. This added value was derived from thestronger inclusion of soft constraints into the design process. The goal of introducing CSLactivities to the course was to minimize its influence on the lecture component while enhancingthe design component. Except for a lecture on service learning, no significant changes in lecturematerial or topics occurred. Given the course's role in ABET-accredited degree programs,engineering design objectives could not and were not changed. The major difference in the Page 5.151.6course objective was for
microcontrollersThe success criteria for this project are: 1. Implement and refine an existing closed-loop PID control algorithm. 2. Construct and program a closed-loop self-balancing ball system.Wiring and Connection GuideThe wiring instructions for the ball and beam system are illustrated in Figure 2. The servo motoris connected to the digital pin 9 on the Arduino Uno and the IR sensor is connected to analog pinA0. Most servo motors work on pulse width modulated signal with a fixed base frequency as input,the aim of using PWM is to simulate the analog output by varying the duty cycle of the signal. Figure 2.

efficiencies of the entiresystem can more than triple.In this project, a student researched the feasibility of OTEC-only and OTEC-Solar Pond systemsin the Gulf of Mexico to produce electricity which would be used to electrolyze hydrogen. Shecreated a program in Engineering Equation Solver (EES) to model the OTEC only and OTEC-Solar Pond systems of 10 MW and 100 MW sizes to determine the feasibility of these systems.The experience helped to teach and reinforce countless important concepts fromthermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. All levels of learning detailed in Bloom’staxonomy were reached through this project for a wide range of concepts, and the studentparticipated in many cycles of the Kolb’s experiential learning cycle.The student

Multiple sections of the class areoffered each semester, and each is associated with a different technical project and directed bydifferent faculty members. Within our degree programs, these senior projects satisfy the ABETrequirement of a “major design experience based on the knowledge and skills acquired in earliercourse work and incorporating appropriate engineering standards and multiple realisticconstraints.”10 Project offerings vary over time, based on faculty interests. Examples of otherprojects (past and present) include: autonomous quad-rotor helicopters, software-defined radios,mobile ad
