% Figure 8. Summary of post-intervention journal themes (n=29)ConclusionsThis study revealed that the elementary students’ conceptions of robots changed from naïve torealistic with instruction, and this change was reflected in their drawings both immediately andafter a 3-month delay. Furthermore, student journal entries and teacher comments clearlyindicate that the students enjoyed the outreach activity. Anecdotal comments from the teachersalso suggest that the robot programming activities facilitated student learning in mathematicslater in the school year during an introduction to the coordinate system grid.Key characteristics of the outreach activity include the following features: (a) it is very low-cost;(b) it minimizes the impact on the

This paper includes the detailedsketch of the development efforts, engineering students’ reflections on the development project,design and delivery of the high school workshop including high school student feedback, andpossible future college level curricular designs for modular industrial robotics for industrial,mechanical, and manufacturing engineering programs. The paper is concluded with future workconcepts including possible kinematics and dynamics modeling of these industrial robotconfigurations through simulation tools such as DELMIA or MapleSIM, along with use ofmachine learning for self-configuration.BackgroundThe modular robot is a fairly new type

reflected onto theobject in testing inside the wind tunnel with the help of a mirror placed in a 45° angle. As thesingle laser beam energy is distributed over a larger area, the light intensity is also distributednon-uniformly. This results in a variation in the intensity of the laser sheet in Gaussiandistribution. Therefore, the intensity is inversely proportional to the area of the laser sheetproduced. Figure 2: Particle Image VelocimetryThese techniques are modified using a new concept in this project to overcome the drawbacks,i.e. the lenses in the system shown in Figure 2 is replaced by an octagonal disc mounted withmirrors which creates laser sheets with uniform intensity throughout the area of the sheet.

it is used with a monochromatic source, suchas a laser, to test optical components. The beamsplitter is a partially reflecting mirror thatseparates the light incident upon it into two beams of equal strength. After reflecting off themirrors, the two beams are recombined so that they both travel in the same direction when theyreach the screen. The condition of constructive and destructive interference depends on thedifference between the paths traveled by the two beams. Since each beam must travel thedistance from the beamsplitter to its respective mirror and back, the distance traveled by thebeam is 2L as shown in the Figure. If the path-length difference, 2L1-2L2, is equal to an integralnumber of wavelengths, m λ, where m is an integer

life of the ASEE Manufacturing Division, education in manufacturing engineering and manufacturing engineering technology has faced more-or-less continuous challenge. It has always been difficult to convey the excitement and fulfillment of a manufacturing engineering career to young students -- and to the choice as an undergraduate major. It has always been difficult to make the case for the value proposition of expensive laboratories with university administrators. It has always been difficult to forge and maintain meaningful and effective linkages between campus and industry. Over the years, these challenges have been framed to reflect the crucial focus of the time -- of a particular year. At several key points in the past

It has long been known in the business communitythat establishing a ‘standard’ is essential to the growth of a technology and of the industries thatparticipate in that technology. The Four Pillars of Manufacturing Engineering defines thestandard for advanced manufacturing topics, and provides a body of knowledge concept withwhich all those engaged in advanced manufacturing education can align. The image of manufacturing needs updating to reflect the wealth of opportunitiesavailable, the critical role that domestic manufacturing plays in our economy, the skills needed,the ‘clean’ nature of modern advanced manufacturing operations, the significant benefits thatmanufacturing provides to society and the

. Parametric solid modelling and surface modelling are the basic CAD technologies. Solid modelling creates a model that has the filled volume. It closely represents a physical object by having data of physical properties such as mass, density, along with the geometric information. Surface modelling, on the other hand, generates the outlook of the objects as a surface model but doesn’t reflect the physical properties as in a solid model. Solid modelling is preferred over surface modelling in AM as it has simpler representation of geometric information and provides information that is useful to generate tool path. 4. 3D scanning technology enables reverse engineering of a physical part

Therefore, it is critical to wear safety gloves so the resin does get on the user’s body parts.  Wear safety glasses: It is important to wear safety glasses around the 3D printer. When the enclosure is open, the resin could splash into the user’s eyes.
