Introduction and Educational Objectives In power distribution systems, loads may increase due to the installation of new customersand to the electricity demand shifts resulting from seasonal weather changes. Load increases notonly cause higher power system losses but also may lead to overloads in electrical equipment,such as transformers and distribution lines, which will reduce the

The implications of all these findings will be discussed in the context ofengineering design education, with recommendations for application and future research.2. Psychological Inertia, Cognitive Diversity, and the Engineering Design StudentWhen one is faced with an engineering design challenge, the ability of the designer togenerate potential solution concepts during the early stages of the design process is stronglyimpacted by that individual’s “psychological inertia”8.

UAV use of computerized speed control andGPS for lateral control is so precise, that users may generate an accurate moving target displayof all UAVs on a monitor based solely on the flight plan.
