In asimilar vein, the wastewater treatment and conveyance infrastructure received a grade of D+ with aprojected annual infrastructure investment gap of $81 Billion. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) isbased on the broad idea that structural and environmental characteristics be monitored regularly to ensureinfrastructure assets are repaired and rehabilitated in a timely manner to avoid further deterioration andfailure (Housner et al., 1997). While SHM has been actively researched since 1970s, the transition topractical field applications has largely been slow (Cawley, 2018). However, advancements in sensortechnologies

Data can be coded using custom or in vivo codes and results can besearched and cross referenced. Additionally, MAXQDA provides a variety of tools forvisualizing and analyzing the resulting coded data.

As the prime directive of ethics, all professionals should refrain from actions thatresult in harm of any type: physical, psychological, financial, legal. Initially associated withmedicine and erroneously ascribed to the Hippocratic Oath, primum non nocere came intowidespread usage in the early 20th century18 and has served as a guide for professional practicein any area related to the public good. Engineering codes capture this concept in FundamentalCanon #1, and public safety is at the forefront of a designer’s mind, especially those workingwith structures and consumer products.It is important to note

ECE students (for a course total of 86) are currentlyenrolled for the spring, 2003. It is anticipated that between 100 and 120 students fromthe three departments will eventually be enrolled in the course each fall and springsemester on a continuing basis.Anticipating the significant increase in enrollment in the course and the need for a largerand more diverse instructor base, the other two authors of this paper were assigned towork with Ross Kastor on the course beginning in the spring of 2002. Our initial taskwas to evaluate and “upgrade”, if necessary, the course content and operations andprepare for nearly a tripling of the course throughput, from less than 100 students a yearto more than 200.

the concepts themselves. The usual goal of a concept inventory is to helpeducators to determine if their students understand the concepts of a field, rather than simply beingable to implement procedures. In the case of functional reasoning, the concept inventory may helpto define its conceptual underpinning. The impact of a concept inventory on education in designcould be to initiate changes in the way that function is taught.2 Background: Delphi method, concept inventories, and functional reasoningThe exposition of this project depends upon a basic understanding of the definitions of functionalreasoning in engineering design, concept inventories, and the Delphi method.

Project and time management: Prior to the capstone course, many students have not developed adequate time management skills to handle a year-long project. In typical classes, students are kept on track through the regular submission of coursework and scheduled exams. Except for the initial research phase of design, regularly scheduled coursework is not conducive to the iterative design process that occurs in real life and in the capstone course. For this reason, many students have a hard time staying on track, and find themselves scrambling during the last half of the second

The method worked well and the students hadsuitable experience with Power Point to do the evaluation. There are drawbacks that studentscan research answers to questions rather than speaking from their current viewpoint and theanalysis of an open-ended procedure is more time intensive than a scaled approach. For thepurposes of this beginning initiative for the design course, the procedure seemed appropriate.For the next term, students will be asked to handwrite a Power Point presentation during class sothere isn’t the opportunity to do research.For the post Power Point assignment, there were few changes made but

This process resulted in a plan todevelop a new engineering program at ASU’s East Campus. The need for this program is drivenby the rapid population growth of the Phoenix metropolitan area, capacity restrictions at ASU’sTempe campus and at other state universities, forecasts of engineering student and industrydemand, and a desire to develop a polytechnic campus at ASU.Unlike many curriculum development or reform efforts, the development of this new programbegan with a blank slate.
