A historical challenge with artificialhip replacements has been that the stiffer artificial femoral component shields the surroundingbone from stresses during physiological activities. This phenomenon, known as “stressshielding,” results in bone resorption that can lead to implant failure

Her research focuses on the interactions between student moti- vation and their learning experiences. Her projects involve the study of student perceptions, beliefs and attitudes towards becoming engineers and scientists, and their problem solving processes. Other projects in the Benson group include effects of student-centered active learning, self-regulated learning, and incor- porating engineering into secondary science and mathematics classrooms. Her education includes a B.S. in Bioengineering from the University of Vermont, and M.S. and Ph.D. in Bioengineering from Clemson University. c

For each goal 3D model, we applied asearch and planning algorithm, an AI approach, to compute all possible construction sequencesunder certain constraints.The tutorial system consists of five components: introduction, pre-test, training, post-test, andpost-survey. A flow chart of the tutorial process is shown in Figure 1.At the project introduction stage, the tutorial briefly introduces the overall tutorial process

A file is parsed successfully if itidentified the header row and included all rows of student data. If the parser includesmiscellaneous columns of data, the test is allowed to pass as these columns can be excluded inpost processing; 23 tests were passed in this manner.

Engineering studentsexpect to make higher incomes than many other majors. That increase in expected earning powermay cause students to take out higher loans than they otherwise would have. MK Consulting [1]defines a 10% rule, that the amount of income that is typically needed for paying off this debtwithin 10 years has been around 10% of the borrowers’ income. Anything above this 10% isdefined as excessive debt [1]. Assuming an average debt of $50,000 at an interest rate of 4% for10 years, these
