Class time is split between workshops and labs. The workshops (held in a computer room) are used to convey material to the students which enhances the lab experience, prepares them for a design project, and improves their communication skills. In the workshops, the following are covered:
1. Solid modeling 2. Functional Requirements and Design Parameters 3. Limiting and dominant physics of machines 4. Spread sheets (used for performance modeling) 5. Basic sketching 6. Basic web page construction 7. A formal method for understanding how something works, which is to understand: a. Functional Requirements & Design Parameters b. Geometry & Structure c. Limiting & Dominant Physics d. Flow of material, energy, information, etc.. |
