Use Of Ai And Machine Learning For Engineering Applications, Max Rios Carballo
Publications and Research
In this paper, we examine how artificial intelligence (AI) and computer-based intelligence (CBI) may be used to address design challenges. We examine artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) as they relate to developing applications from the inside out, highlighting the most challenging issues as well as intriguing research areas for further consideration.

This assignment was developed as part of a 2018-19 Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) -sponsored Learning Matters Global Learning Mini-grant awarded to support the ENG 259 Technical Writing course. This course is required for engineering students as the second course in their composition sequence to be taken in lieu of ENG 102. The aim of the mini-grant was to integrate LaGuardia’s Global Learning Core Competency into the ENG 259 course via the development of a high stakes global learning assignment. The assignment was developed during the Fall 2018 CTL Learning Matters Mini-Grant seminar meetings led by Drs. Karen Miller …

This lab introduces students to the fatigue failure of steels, plastics and ceramics when they are stressed in a controlled manner until they fail. Materials are subjected to repeated stress called fatigue and fatigue properties of different materials vary with type, source, quality, type and duration of applied stress.

This paper describes an engineering professor’s first attempt at designing and implementing a scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) study in a basic electrical circuits course at LaGuardia Community College. Inspired by his understanding of Lee Shulman’s (2005) concept of “signature pedagogy” and Eric Mazur’s emphasis on student-centered approaches (2009, November 12), and aware that his students did not always understand the electrical theories and concepts presented in class, the author decided to change his pedagogy. He explains his efforts to train his students to think as engineers, first by making them more “visible” and “accountable” in the classroom, and …
