Since most of the buildings were not engineered, theworkshops were developed to address all building professionals and also the home owners inpreparation of home repairs and new constructions.Workshop PilotThe first step was to get in touch with the target audience.

In EBSD, thetop atomic layers of a highly polished material diffract the incident electron beam. As intransmission electron microscopy, the resulting electron diffraction pattern at any point isuniquely determined by the crystal structure that the beam is incident upon. Computerizedmethods allow the patterns to be easily indexed to the corresponding

Curricular Pathway in Environmental EngineeringAbstractCurrently, students majoring in civil engineering at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology(RHIT) do not get exposure to discipline-specific course content in environmental engineeringuntil the final quarter of Year 3. We’ve noticed that many students we’ve advised come into theirfirst year with an interest in environmental engineering, but they tend to choose different pathsbefore they even have a course in environmental engineering. We developed a plan that re-envisions the pathway for the environmental engineering curriculum. We evaluated differentscenarios of curriculum pathways to provide students with exposure to environmentalengineering content earlier in their academic career. Through this

Despiteincreased budget allocation for Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation (RDT&E),addressing other nations’ threats remains a significant challenge. Also, the confidential natureof defense programs limits the level of detail available in reports, making it difficult for industrystakeholders to identify priority areas and align their efforts effectively with defense objectives.Methodology: This research analyzes DoD reports, including the Cyber

Since there were no plans to establish a full controls lab for the entire classes,simulations using Matlab were required for the course.

It was decided that the project should first be broken down into threefunctional areas called the ground station, the link, and the onboard controller. These three areaswere further broken down into subtasks that could be handled by individual group members. Forexample, the onboard system was broken down into telemetry sensors, GPS, image capture,spectrum display, and the actual controller itself. Once these tasks were determined, the projectmanager assigned tasks to the group members and they in turn decided on an approach toaccomplish the tasks.Telemetry SensorsThe UAV was required
