science and engineering principles best afterapplying them in a laboratory experience, we have made a laboratory an integral part ofthe course. Through the National Science Foundation ILI program, two analytical toolshave been obtained to allow students to perform compositional analysis and somestructural analysis on polymeric materials. These tools are a Fourier Transform InfraredSpectrometer(FTIR) and a Thermal Analyzer. The thermal analysis equipment willperform Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC) and ThermogravimetricAnalysis(TGA). Several projects have been used in class using plastic components fromthe automotive industry. Projects are also assigned which require student groups tochoose a manufactured object and identify the material(s
Per-Phase Mutual Inductance between the Stator and Rotor Coils, M = 0.03621 HFigure 1 displays the per-phase,steady-state equivalent circuit ofan induction motor. Figure 1. Equivalent Circuit of An Induction Motor The rated speed of 1705 RPM requires a four-pole induction motor with a synchronousspeed of 1800 RPM. Angular Velocity, S = 120f / p = (120 * 60) / 4 = 1800 RPMThus the slip, S at 1705 rpm is calculated as follows, Slip, S = ( S! m)/ S = (1800!1705) / 1800 = 0.0527778Therefore, R’2 / S = 0.23791 / 0.0527778 = 4.50777
. Those documents recommended that, to insure a healthy and habitableenvironment for future generations, the world s businesses, industries, governments, andindividuals should adopt and work towards a goal of Global Sustainability. The years that havepassed since these documents were released have produced some movement towards this goal.Many observers, however, have considered this progress as too slow and too meager. Thissituation has changed somewhat during the recent past, with concrete examples of attempts toaddress Sustainability issues, in academia, government, and industry, beginning to emerge. Aspecial case of such emergence is found within today s institutions of engineering education .Engineering is by definition a discipline that

Mattucci?”, and intrinsic value was identified in almost all participantresponses (80% code presence), where instrumental (30%) and attainment (10%) werementioned less frequently. Instrumental value was often related to how the outcomes of amentorship relationship led to skill development, benefits and impacts on work – which areusually a precursor to attainment value in the form of career progression and growth.Interestingly, four of

While this study employed an adequate sample of students, the generalization offindings is not warranted. A larger sample and different situations and conditions make theresearch design more reliable. The next phase of this study will include the recruitment of subjectsfrom various majors and using discerning factors to reveal interdependencies between subgroups.References[1] S. Hershner and R.

ConclusionIncorporating less than 0.5% of graphene or carbon nanotubes has demonstrated the potential toenhance the 28-day compressive strength of cement mortars. To ascertain an optimal ratio andassess the impact of lower contents on variability, additional research is recommended. Thisexploration is crucial for determining the viability and practicality of these mixtures forcommercial applications. If these findings prove scalable and methods are devised to mitigatevariability, carbon nanomaterials could emerge as advantageous additives for larger-scaleapplications in cementitious materials. 8.

While modern medical institutions are wellequipped to treat patients with diagnosed mental conditions, people with milder symptoms areseldom able to receive necessary treatment due to their condition not falling under the requireddiagnostic criteria [6]. Without access to medical diagnosis and treatment, many such individualscontinue to suffer from their mild/medium symptoms until their condition deteriorates to thepoint of needing necessary medical attention, resulting in the need for more effective andaccessible diagnostic techniques to prevent mild mental disorders from regressing.

transition between compressed liquid and superheated vapor. Any point on thisdiagram corresponds to a state, which can be determined by the two properties T and v. However,this state is also related to a group of other properties, such as pressure (P), internal energy,enthalpy and entropy (s). As there are six properties commonly associated with a state, one canconstruct up to C62 different diagrams. However, as P and T are two properties that can bemeasured easily, they are often considered as the primary properties. Just as in quantummechanics, P and T are associated with two complementary properties v and s, and the product ofeach pair has the dimension of specific energy.Thermodynamics problems often involve some processes, i.e., transitions of

To generate the ASCII waveform, students programmedthe Agilent 33120A Function Generator. Next, they designed a first-order RC low-pass filterwith a 3 kHz bandwidth and observed and captured the output response of the filter to theASCII waveform. 1.
