testingwould also achieve a more confident value of electron beam coupling efficiency in Al 2219.Conclusion EBF3’s ability to produce near net shaped parts could reduce launch mass by replacingpotentially unused spare parts with a lower mass of wire. Without being able run simulations ofthe EBF3 process many experiments must be run to determine what is happening during theprocess. This becomes very time and economically inefficient. Simulation however, is anefficient alternative to experiment if it produce accurate results.

For friction stir welding (FSW), the work pieces and thedonor were held using the workpiece fixture on the test bed of a FSW machine (see Fig. 1(b)).Before thermocouples were attached to the workpiece, the reliability of thermocouple wereevaluated. Three k-type thermocouples were attached 6 mm, 25 mm and 50 mm from theboundary as shown in Fig. 4(a). They were placed in front of the tool. For the welding, the sametype of the tool used for the insulation research. The FSW machine was programmed to have thetool plunge into the workpiece and then to travel at the 4.5 mm/s speed and the plunge force andangular velocity of the tool used were 5 KN and 1400 RPM, respectively
and high-speed fingerprint verification technique is proposed in this paper. Theproposed technique is observed to be very successful in recognizing a target fingerprint which isincluded in the database and reject any other fingerprints. It produces an efficient correlationoutput which clearly identifies the target fingerprints. The technique is also capable ofidentifying multiple fingerprints in the same input scene simultaneously. Computer simulationresults verify the effectiveness of the technique in different practical real-life scenario, like noisyscenes. Optical implementation of the technique will yield a real-time fingerprint verificationsystem for security applications. REFERE CES[1] S

IntroductionSeveral faculty who teach mechanical and electrical engineering commented that students aresometimes weak in vector algebra [1,2,3]. This prompted us to do a preliminary survey ofstudents in classes taught by one of us. We found that first-year students were weak intrigonometry. Students at University choose engineering either because they like to do it, forfinancial reasons or they want to contribute to humanity [4]. Preliminary data in this study andfrom teaching experience suggest that they have some weakness in vector mathematics whichtends to

about engineering solutionsneeding to work, i.e. be economical and effective. Amy also mentioned that a completelycreative solution would not be achievable due to the constraints given in the problem. These statements suggest three key themes. First is that some domain knowledge relatedto a problem is helpful in allowing engineers to be creative. However, second, knowledge ofexisting solution(s) to the specific problem being solved impacts a practitioner’s ability to becreative. In this case they may not necessarily use their creativity to develop a new solution whenone is already known to exist and work. A third theme seems to suggest that practitioners mayfeel restricted by expectations, specifically that they are expected to develop a

Anexample of a helpful approach was to use noise-canceling headphones at work and listen tobackground music. In response to P4's story about leaving their headphones and how they becameoverwhelmed by forgetting their Airpods, users shared their suggestions and stories about similarexperiences. Most of them mentioned that it had happened to them before in the past and that theyhad backups for their AirPods. In several comments, users expressed the difficulty of workingwithout their Air pods. For instance, P24 said, "I completely agree with you. If I forget my earbuds,I cannot work.

It is hoped that this study when completed will better inform the engineering communityof the current state-of-the-art of project-based learning in engineering education, the impact ofengineering education on students’ academic achievement, and recommend future direction forproject-based learning in engineering education. The study will also contrast project-basedlearning in the United States to other countries.References[1] Khan, K. S., Kunz, R., Kleijnen, J., & Antes, G. (2003).

graduate education for improvingtechnical and professional skills of graduate education has demonstrated that it has potential inaddressing the project goals. For this model to be successful, several requirements are critical. Asdemonstrated above, teams are more successful when effective scaffolds are employed to supportthe co-creation process. These scaffolds need to come from supportive and engaged researchadvisors of graduate students who can work collaboratively with an agreed-upon set of goals andobjectives for their students’ success in this effort. Throughout the project, mechanisms formaintaining and exercising acquired skills need to be provided. We also believe that it isimportant to identify the specific product(s) that co-creating
