distributed elements (such as microstriptransmission lines) or with pre-packaged gain blocks. The most straightforward way, and the waythe RF industry uses, of measuring these one and two-port networks is using S-parameters. Tomake the measurements, a two-port vector network analyzer (VNA) can be employed to makethese S-parameter measurements directly, from which other network parameters could be derivedif necessary. Until recently, VNAs were very expensive for frequencies in the GHz range so thatmakes measurements problematic for larger classes where students would have to wait to gainaccess to the instrument. Recently and with the advances in single-chip components, VNA pricesfor hobbyists have come down dramatically and now a full two-port VNA for

Organizations recognize the importance for employees tounderstand how to work effectively with others, but also express that new employees do notbring adequate teaming skills to the workplace (S. Adams & Ruiz, 2004; Pascarella &Terenzini, 2005). Despite calls to promote teamwork as “an indispensable quality forengineering”(Lingard & Barkataki, 2011) engineering schools have been generally slow indeveloping pedagogies that successfully promote collaborative behaviors. Several initiativeshave been done in engineering education -like project-based learning and team-basedlearning to try to promote teamwork skills (Felder & Brent, 2009; Prince, 2004). However

At a fundamental level,systems thinking can offer new ways of thinking ‘systemically’ to effectively deal with thecomplex problems faced by many professionals. There is a lack of research-based instrument(s)in the literature that identify individuals’ fitness for systems thinking. This paper introduces thedevelopment of a systems thinking instrument that identifies individuals capacity for systemsthinking and determines their inclination in treating complex system problems across domains.This instrument can also be used to distinguish where a university curriculum (or a corporatetraining program) excels at producing systems thinkers and where it may be lacking.IntroductionIn 2016, the World

With only average daily and not hourly wind data available from anearby town, this data may only be used to verify a visual trend of any impact stronger winds may have onmodule temperature. Figure 4 gives an example of this data, the trend-line creating a very clear divide on highinsolation days, between higher winds (red- above 2.65m/s) and lower winds (blue- less than 2.65m/s).This didnot hold up for some other months, as seen in Figure 5. While seemingly random, all high winds for themonth(>=3m/s – Figure 6) did correlate to lower temperatures (though not vice versa).

Conference ProceedingsI. EVOLUTION OF ENGINEERING EDUCATION Engineering education objectives and methods have progressed greatly during the post-World War IItechnology boom. During the 1950's, teaching material was characterized by multitudes of design rules fordifferent practice scenarios, i.e. rules of thumb for particular engineering problems. It soon became evident that"cookbook" engineering was insufficient to meet the needs accompanying the rapid growths in new technologyand the ever-broadening scope of engineering problems. The emphasis of classroom education shifted in the1960's toward "engineering science," or the fundamentals of physical phenomena. This constituted an effort toinstill in students the necessary foundations for

thisalternate design process rest on powerful algorithms, developed by Simons and Harden to solve differential equations. [SIM088]These algorithms can be adapted to greatly reduce the number of computations required to derive a bilinear transformed digital H(z)model from a prototype H(s) analog model. This reduction in processing makes it feasible to base the optimal digital filter design onan analog prototype and arrive at solutions based on the changing coefficients of the analog filter. The end result is an optimallydesigned digital filter as well as an analog filter that could be claimed to be optimal in some sense. In order to verify and converge on a proper filter design, the frequency response of the current filter in the design process must

These standards require thatelectric utilities obtain 10% to 30% of their energy from renewable sources, with target datesbetween 2020 and 2030.1 In support of this effort the U.S. Department of Energy is consideringthe viability of wind energy to supply up to 20% of nation’s electricity by 2030.2 In addition tothe technical challenge of integrating wind power into the national grids, another criticalchallenge in the 20% wind power scenario involves preparing the

Additional insights into quantitative relationships can be gained by graded categorizationof NSBE membership that accounts for factors such as number of years of involvement, whenthey first joined the organization (e.g. freshman vs later years), level of involvement, and otherstudent success outcomes (e.g. GPA). Exploring how and why particular associations exist canalso be supported by more rigorous qualitative explorations of NSBE members decisions topersist or leave engineering and/or the organization and what unique role NSBE played in thesedecisions.References[1] D.
