to verify calculator results. From simple diode designsand waveform presentations to MOSFET and BJT operating point calculations, the Matlabprogram can be very helpful to make sure that the data is correct and that the studentunderstands design procedures. Changes in Q point can be quickly obtained and can leadto optimum designs. Amplifier designs can also be obtained very easily and can bemodified at will.Keywords: MatLab, Diode Modeling, MOSFET Design, BJT Design1. IntroductionWhen students enter into the Engineering program at the University of Pittsburgh atBradford, the programming language of choice and of necessity is Excel.

is also asked to verify FEA results withclosed-form calculations wherever possible. For example, plate theory4 shows the maximumnormal stress, S, around a hole can be calculated using: qRo 2 F7 S t2Where q = applied pressure, Ro = outer radius, t = plate thickness and F7 is a stress factor basedon the geometry of the plate. In addition to hand calculations, the student responsible for the structural analysis(student “A”), is asked to defend the accuracy of his or her FE analysis. Students are encouragedto report structural error and explore submodeling techniques on the crown plate.

) from Cartesiancoordinates to spherical coordinates the result would be (R R + 0 q + 0 f). This was the correctresult but upon going back from spherical to Cartesian a large complicated expression resulted.Upon close examination, it was seen that the answer was correct but was not in its simplest form.In order to compensate, some of the expressions used in the conversion process were pre-simplified before they were programmed. It must be noted that the program does not alwayssimplify expressions to their simplest form. This is especially true when converting fromspherical to Cartesian coordinates or from cylindrical to Cartesi an coordinates. A significantportion of the problem was, however, removed.When a GUI window was resized another problem

Notice that the basic structure is a series resistance, inductance, capacitance (RLC)circuit comprised of Rs, Lm, and Cm.

communications are essential for a simple example of questions and answers(denoted Q/As) and up to more detailed example in mind. Intentional communicationswith confirmation on a real-time basis are also essential for better mutualcomprehension in distance education and learning[4][8]. Here, it enables users to send and confirm not only the individual learners’ Q/As, butalso their more in-depth intentions, with fewer disturbances present in a class context.Teaching staff can also control communication in many timely situations for a betterprogression of class context, with their logged data displayed during the process. At thesame time, mutually intentional communications are more available between learnersand teaching staff, or among learners. Student
