. Standards can even take the effect of law if they appear, for example, in building codes.Cities and municipalities in the south adopt the building codes developed and published bySBCCI almost universally. Many engineering students receive the B. S. degree with little or no exposure toengineering standards. This deficiency can easily be corrected by introducing standards (orportions) during appropriate sections of conventional technical courses or laboratories. Forexample, the author has required laboratory students to perform portions of the performance testsfor audible back up alarms used on some construction equipment (SAE standard). Note thatOSHA requires these alarms on certain equipment. As a minimum, students should be madeaware of the

Realizing this, they decided toutilize another technique that they learned in their EM 460 class: photoelasticity.

It can be seen that different focusing depth corresponds to a different focal law.Figure 4(c) illustrates the steering operation which allows a single transducer to scan multipleangles compared to the single angle solution for the conventional ultrasonic technology.

Pedagogical introduction of problem-based learning is credited to the medicalcommunity (Savin-Baden & Howell, 2004), and has been recognized for “inducing revolutionaryundergraduate medical reform” (Maudsley, (1999). With a seemingly parallel objective over amulti-year period, the National Science Foundation has continued to appeal to researchers torevolutionize engineering education (National Science Foundation, 2014, 2018). As PBL has become more widespread, several changes have
