The motor under testingcould be a DC motor, a three-phase induction motor, or a three-phase permanent-magnet AC(PMAC) motor. The motor requires a controlled pulse-width-modulated (PWM) voltage to run atcontrolled speed or torque that is generated by power electronics drive board.Continuing EducationUTC offers a wide assortment of seminars, workshops, and “lunch ‘n learns” that have provedvery popular with the local power industry.

, electrospun carbonnanofibers (ECNF) incorporated as a part of a biosensor are also be able to detect glucose. The objective of the research is to study the electrical characteristics of ECNF in variousconditions (AC and DC). All five dry ECNF samples are found to be ohmic and exhibit linearbehavior within the range -2.226 V to 2.992 V and the operating frequency is within the range of13 Hz to 850 KHz. As the ECNF samples’ length increase and their cross-sectional area remainconstant, it is predicted that their resistance increases and thus lower their output current. Databeyond this range behaved in a nonlinear manner. In addition, this study shows that ECNF doesallow glucose to be detected. Its lower cost makes it a more economical choice over

Instead of attending in lecture-based classes, the IRE students selectmost of their technical competencies based on their team projects and use the projects tofacilitate their learning. Studies have showed that this type of learning is more effective thantraditional methods 8,9.The IRE program was established in 2010 as a result of collaboration between two institutions(Itasca Community College and Minnesota State University – Mankato). The program promotesproject-based, self-directed learning, and practicing engineering professionalism. Most of theIRE projects are industry-sponsored projects; however the students are encouraged to developtheir own project ideas as well. The students form a team at the beginning of each

determining aninduction machine’s torque-speed curve was less desirable. We paid to have the system alignedprofessionally, a costly thing for a university laboratory nearly 200km from the nearestalignment contractor. We did not want to decouple the machines because of the cost ofrealigning them. Therefore, we created a test method to find appropriate machine modelparameters without decoupling the machine.Incumbent Testing MethodThe current method to characterize an induction machine’s torque-speed curve is represented inFigure 1. In this method induction machine (IM) is operated as a motor and is supplied three-phase AC voltage and current from the utility. The induction motor’s shaft couples to a DCmachine. The DC machine acts as a generator that
