; Exposition Copyright © 2004, American Society for Engineering EducationABSTRACT One of America’s best kept secrets is the success of its nuclear electric power industry. Thispaper presents data which support the construction and operating successes enjoyed by energycompanies that operate nuclear power plants in the US. The result--the US nuclear industry isalive and well. Perhaps it’s time to start anew the building of nuclear power plants. Let’s take the wraps off the major successes achieved in the nuclear power industry. Over20% of the electricity generated in the United States comes from nuclear power plants. Anadequate, reliable supply of reasonably priced electric energy is not a consequence of anexpanding economy and

They have also simulated real-worldscenarios, fostering critical thinking and creativity. This paper also presents a case study based onthe experience that students have found using AI tools in their education. Moreover, AI toolsadaptability to individual learning styles and the ability to provide personalized feedbackdemonstrate their potential to revolutionize engineering education.

Introduction Drones are changing the world’s view of aviation. As such, there is an ever-growing need fordifferent types of drones with various capabilities for both civilian and military applications1. Militarysurveillance and border patrolling are common missions for drones.

Initially, the single-project capstonecourse format was developed as the best utilization of faculty and space resources indelivering a meaningful project to a dozen senior students. But as the senior class sizeshave grown to the 20 to 28 range and soon will exceed 30, assessment results have shownthat the direct, broad, and synergistic benefits of the design experience provided to theTCU engineering students outweigh alternative capstone course formats used by largerprograms. The paper highlights the course’s current operation mode, as well as theassessment process results. Page 13.582.2

Finally, theoretical results are reviewed using computerresults and appropriate modifications are applied to the design. Students also perform extensivetests of concrete mixes every semester, design and build actual beams, columns, or slabs that aretested to failure.
