Advanced manufacturing covers new industrial processesthat improve upon traditional methods in quality, speed, and cost. In addition, the dynamic natureof technology and innovation has made it difficult to find a unified illustration of key advancedmanufacturing skills. However, three visual models of manufacturing illustrate variousstakeholders’ perceptions of the field

Engineering Education, 2007 Lessons Learned in Adopting a CFD PackageAbstractComputational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) used to be a luxury reserved for elective undergraduate orgraduate engineering courses. Now it is being rapidly adopted in introductory Fluid Mechanicscourses. This, in large part, became possible with the introduction of FlowLab, which isspecifically designed for this purpose. The software is offered with several Fluid Mechanicstextbooks and is free for the duration of the course. It comes with a selection of modulesaddressing both internal and external flows. It is designed to simplify the instructor’s work and toaccelerate student learning by streamlining such issues as geometry, meshing, application ofboundary
