Properties of the fluids are included.Experiment Procedure and ResultsFive gallons of Heinz Ketchup was purchased for the experiment, choosing a name brandfor its reputation of high viscosity.First, the students poured about 400 ml of ketchup into a 600 ml beaker and measured theviscosity from 20 to 200 rpm using a Brookfield viscometer. The students had used theviscometer in the previous semester, and were familiar with its operation. However, theyhad not found the flow characteristic index and flow behavior index for a non-Newtonianfluid. This experiment required

In the United States, sweet sorghum stalks are crushed and the fresh juice isconcentrated by approximately a 10:1 volume reduction via water removal into shelf-stable syrup.Sorghum molasses is a lucrative boutique product used as a honey, maple syrup, or liquidsweetener substitute. Sorghum syrup is a natural product that unlike refined sugar, uses nochemicals in its manufacture. It is a source of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zincand vitamin B-6.10The new sorghum hybrid was bred by ICRISAT to be a dual-use crop which simultaneously yieldsacceptable
industrial automation: electrical and electronic components and systems operation and control of automated systems maintenance and repair of electrical/electronics equipment maintenance and repair of mechanical equipmentThese competencies were selected based on a review of syllabi used in teaching industrialautomation subjects. Participants were asked to rate each competency as not important,somewhat important, important, or very important.Electrical and electronic components and systemsIn the area of electrical and electronic components and systems, the following competencieswere rated: a. Demonstrate knowledge of electrical power sources and their characteristics. b. Select and specify DC and AC power sources for
. Additionally, wronganswers were not accepted. Students had to get their pre-labs checked in face-to-face meetingswith the instructor and anything that was incorrect had to be re-done and re-checked prior toreceiving a grade. The grade was based solely on when the student was able to get it all correctand checked. The post-labs became just a matter of filling in a spreadsheet that was created inthe pre-lab and answering a few questions. The post-labs were graded during class. Studentsstayed in class for most, if not all, of the class period.

What he was really good at was instead of being those known parents in our competitions that will be the ones to build the robot and not even let their kids touch it, Mr. B was one of the teachers that would basically just sit back and he want you to discover the rules, and discover what you can and can not do yourself.The idea of leaving the child to explore the bounds of a problem themselves allows them to get abetter understanding of real life engineering lessons. It also instills in the child a knowledge ofhow to approach new topics, creating lifelong
for two reasons:a. an unmanned aircraft system is a system of systems requiring many disciplines to design, build,and operate, and b. having students from freshman up to seniors ensures “tribal knowledge” ispassed on from year-to-year.

meaning-making lens. Such a perspective of reflection helps align multiple bodies of literature around the topic.In light of our four cases, we explore two questions that were central to our collaborative inquiry: 1. What common strategies did we use and what common challenges did we face? This question is motivated by the assumption that features common to our cases suggest what may be relevant to future work of this variety. 2. What implications do our cases suggest for: a) individual researchers interested in trying to do this type of work, b) researchers wondering if this type of work is relevant to their topic, and c) a community trying to decide if and how to value this type of work?By sharing our

The sensor module alsoincludes a small light bulb that can be pulled out and used as a heat source.The thermistor is the upper left resistor-like sensor in the middle of the panel. It is connected tothe ohmmeter via a two-position switch. Its resistance changes according to temperature. Usersaccess it by (a) changing the two-position switch to the top position, (b) touching the sensor withan object (such as a finger), (c) reading the resistance from the ohmmeter, and (d) converting itto a temperature based on the sensor’s datasheet.The RTD is the middle (smallest) of the three sensors in the middle of the panel.

This is clearly achieved in both courses where half of thelessons in Statics and almost all lessons in Solid Mechanics are ‘flipped’. The learningenvironment remains structured through the course notebook and in in class practice problemswhich are designed to build the student’s understanding of each topic.

MethodsThe experimental protocol is as follows: a. Load alginate/drug solution into the syringe and remove bubbles. Place syringe into the syringe pump and set to a flow rate of 1 mL/min. b. Place beaker with 100 mL 6% calcium chloride solution underneath the pump set up. Start the pump and make a batch of 50 spherical beads. c. Turn off the pump and filter out the beads into a weigh boat. d. Repeat the process to fabricate a second batch of 50 beads. One of these batches will be for the controlled release experiment and the other will be used to calculate the maximum loading. e. Dry the excess solution on the surface of the spheres by blotting with a kimwipe and measure the
