The proposedresearch question was studied in senior-level undergraduate elective course (CE 423: TrafficOperations) taken by students that wish to learn more about the engineering skills and techniquesrequired to practice traffic engineering. Content includes implementation and design of trafficcontrol devices, design of signal phase and timing plans, and analysis of signalized intersectionoperations. The course is offered in one section every fall (approx. 30 students) and was split intotwo components: lectures and a lab. The lecture sessions covered material from

Phase 2 will be completed during 2021 and available near the endof the calendar year.As structural steel design often comes in the beginning of students’ experience in structural design.Typically, there is a bit of a learning curve surrounding how design problems are approached. So,some initial applets are aimed at orienting the students’ view around building plans and flow offorces. Then, the typical flow of topics is tension members, connections, compression members,beams, and combined axial and bending. In addition, the later applets will cover some

Fortunately, we were able to anticipate this pending limitation and direct college funds topurchase standard quadcopter drone kits for almost every student (or pair of students who couldstill work together on the project). These kits allowed the students to independently conductflight planning and test flights with the autopilots. This technology is far easier with rotary wingdrone aircraft then with fixed wing aircraft. In the latter the aircraft cannot hover, so takeoffs,landings, and missions are far more difficult to program. Nonetheless, this helped students learnthe basic principles of programming drone missions.With no way for the students to test fly the fixed wing
