, beam structural elements are often a critical design component,and it is not surprising that beam stresses and deflections are fundamental course topics inall undergraduate mechanical and civil engineering degree programs. In the MechanicalEngineering Department at RIT, students are introduced to beam bending and deflectionin a second-year strength of materials course (MECE 203). The approach is a traditionalone, starting with pure beam bending, followed with transverse loading leading to theconstruction of shear-moment diagrams. Torsion of beams of circular cross-section isalso covered. The discussion concludes with the derivation of beam deflection usingEuler-Bernoulli beam theory assuming uniform flexural rigidity.

There is an overuse of the variable “y”.The second goal of this paper is to provide examples using the actual Power Seriesformulas in calculations. This will give engineering students the hands on feel ofworking with familiar functions such as parabolas. For simplicity in computationpurposes, only the first three terms in the Power Series will be used. A fewexamples will compare the results from the formulas to the calculator obtainednumber. Hopefully this will eliminate the mystery of the above calculator buttons.They will see the actual formula has been programmed into their calculator.This paper which is written in the

ResultsIn examining the different systems incorporated in the construction of the ΔT90 house in eachcase the cost has been reduced and the energy efficiency maintained. With the few changes thereis a cost savings of $ 32,850. This is a reduction in cost of $33 per square foot. This indicates tothe students the various areas that value engineering is applied. They will gain furtherknowledge as they move forward in constructing the micro houses. The results of the researchpresent to the students the necessity of examining alternative construction practices.IV.

We chose to implement this laboratory with a Creative Labs Inc. Soundblaster AWE-32. This cardcomes with a wide variety of software for sampling and modifying audio signals. The soundcard can also becoupled with Matlab. We typically operated the sound card with one channel driving a speaker and the otherchannel driving an electronic spectrum analyzer. Thus, students could both hear the signal and see thefrequency response. We also explored a shareware program called Cool Edit which extends some of thesampling and Fourier transform capabilities of the soundcard software4.3 K.T. Ulrich, S.A. Pearson
