On the other hand, thecorrosion protection fluid can be used to rinse the machined parts in addition to being used as aprotective film for the parts [1].Material used for corrosion protection can leave a hard or soft film on the manufactured partsurface after the protective fluid evaporates [2]. The period of protection ranges from few days toover a year depending on the different characteristics of the protective fluid. Selection of thetemporary protective fluid is usually based on the material of the part to be protected, surface finishof the part, time of immersion or application time, application atmosphere or the surroundingenvironment, and temperature

The rubric isbeing updated for use across engineering disciplines based on insights from the pilot applicationphase and a three phase validation process.

By utilizing the Mr. Potato Head toy as a product to manufacture, the studentscan create different variants of the product using basic materials. Students are introduced to aninefficient manufacturing layout and compare manufacturing a small assortment of productsusing both push and pull sequential manufacturing systems. They then meet as a team and decidehow to improve the process, where the inefficient initial process allows for a variety ofimprovements. The students then try their improved manufacturing process and create a reportbased on the

took place as a class project in Spring 2009: capacitive de-ionization(CDI) of brackish water, which is based upon the principle of electrostatics, as illustrated inFigure 4. Figure 4 CDI concept illustration The goal of this project was to design, analyze and construct a water desalination devicemethod and prototype based on CDI technology. CDI is a relatively new technology, which wasfirst proposed about half a century ago. It is still considered a novel method, alternative to thewidely implemented mechanical methods, such as reverse osmosis, which require high waterpressure, frequent changing of membranes and are generally regarded as not very power-efficient6,7. Due to material limitations CDI was not
-inspired steering hub. Once the steering wheel is removed, a pulley system will replacethe steering wheel. The pulley system will allow the use of the motor to turn the steeringshaft. With the installation of the motor next to the steering column, a joystick canreplace the steering wheel. In order for the joystick to control the motor, amicrocontroller must be used. With the mechanics in place, programming themicrocontroller will allow the inputs of the joystick to be translated to the motor. Thushaving the joystick replace the steering wheel allowing a new medium of vehicleoperation. This process took the entire project team the entire semester to implement. Whennever thought the process would be so intensive or time consuming. The first
