Project-Based Learning In Non-Traditional Settings In Engineering Education, Mary Foss
Project-Based Learning In Non-Traditional Settings In Engineering Education, Mary Foss
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of utilizing the principles of Project-based learning (PJBL) in nontraditional settings in engineering education. There is ample literature related to the usage of PJBL techniques in engineering education but there are also challenges with incorporating PJBL within the curriculum. It is the aim of this dissertation to build upon this understanding of the advantages and limitations of PJBL in engineering education and identify areas within the existing body of knowledge in which more research is needed. This dissertation divides this topic into 4 sub-topics. The first sub-topic explores how PJBL …
Analysis And Implementation Of A High-Order Reconstruction Algorithm For An Unstructured Finite Volume Flow Solver, Shane Edmond Sawyer
Analysis And Implementation Of A High-Order Reconstruction Algorithm For An Unstructured Finite Volume Flow Solver, Shane Edmond Sawyer
Masters Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
A high-order scheme is examined an implemented in an unstructured solver. The motivation for this researcher is driven by research goals to simulate field equations, particularly those of fluid dynamics, with high fidelity. High-order schemes overcome computational limitations by computing comparable solutions on grids that are coarser than grids required by a second-order flow solver. The scheme was chosen based on two criteria. The first being that it is well documented in the literature for two-dimensional flow solvers. The second is that the scheme is extendable to the framework used in the Tenasi flow solver developed at the University of …
