The user specifies the frequency and dutyratio of the square wave, which is used to generate the desired output. Using these values thetime period and on time period (width) are calculated. Internally the timer model normalizes thecurrent time into multiples of the desired period (t) and a remainder (sqtime). If the remainder isgreater than the on time the output is either low or high. This process is described in Algorithm 1and the variation of period, width

To qualify for foundationalengineering from pre-engineering, a pre-engineering student must complete a minimum of 12hours at Texas Tech, become calculus I-ready and maintain a GPA of 3.0. External transferstudents entering Texas Tech must have a 3.0 GPA to enter engineering, which is similar to therequirements for internal transfer students (pre-engineering or other departments).Once in the WCOE, engineering foundational students must maintain a

On a timed exam, students are focused and canwork diligently to finish the exam. On a project, however, where the time spent is open-ended,most students would likely agree that they could have worked harder on the assignment. Thesame rationale might also explain the relatively low score (3.09) for the statement, “I did not givethis assignment my full attention.” The low scores on these statements

The student can learn howthese parameters affect the heat conduction through the comparison of the differentsimulation results. For example, the student can verify when internal resistance isnegligible (Bi=hL/k < 0.1) with this applet.Another feature mentioned in the previous applet is that this applet also allows thestudent to suspend the simulation and move the cursor in the color bar or circle to findout the temperature at any position in
