Exploring The Solidworks® Certification Program, Rustin Webster, Joseph Ottway Jun 2022

Exploring The Solidworks® Certification Program, Rustin Webster, Joseph Ottway

School of Engineering Technology Faculty Publications

The number, variety, and acceptance of computer-aided design (CAD) certifications has significantly increased over the last decade with minimal research conducted on their impact. The purpose of this research paper is to describe the perceived value and benefits of the SOLIDWORKS certification program for students and working professionals within the United States SOLIDWORKS community. The SOLIDWORKS certification program, which began in 1998, recently surpassed 500,000 certified users worldwide. It is viewed as a supplier of world-wide, industry-recognized, lifelong nonconforming professional certifications. Survey data from 193 individuals across five geographical regions of the United States indicate that a SOLIDWORKS certification is …

Understanding The Values Of, And Institutional Barriers Toward, Transforming Undergraduate Learning In The Pursuit Of Innovation, Greg Strimel, Sherylyn Briller, Douglas Pruim, Todd R. Kelley, Jung Sohn, Rebecca Martinez, Jackson Otto

Technology Leadership and Innovation Faculty Publications

Innovation education experiences are now an expectation of post-secondary learning to help prepare students with creative ways of thinking to address the issues they will face in their lives and careers. Educational institutions seemingly recognize the need to do more to culturally transform teaching and learning to prepare and professionalize students for pushing boundaries in new and bigger ways. As more people question the value of higher education itself, thinking about how innovation education contributes to students’ personal and professional success is both vital and timely. Today, universities are now touting their national rankings related to innovation output and critical …

Designing A Self-Regulating And Portable Heating Device For A Microfluidic Based Biosensor, Riya Mahajan May 2022

Designing A Self-Regulating And Portable Heating Device For A Microfluidic Based Biosensor, Riya Mahajan

Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship

Paper-based biosensors are powerful microfluidic analytical devices that are potentially useful for a wide range of applications, ranging from medical diagnostics to agricultural and environmental monitoring. Molecular diagnostics have limitations because they need to send samples back to a centralized laboratory, which increases the cost and turnaround time of the test. This project aims to create a simple-to-use, low-cost, and portable heating system that would facilitate the creation of a field-deployable paper-based analytical device that can incubate the sample at elevated temperatures for conducting isothermal molecular assays. Our design aims to miniaturize a commercial water bath and will be fabricated …


Climate Justice In Engineering Education, Tyler J. Morgan, Donna Riley, Caroline M. Camfield May 2022

Climate Justice In Engineering Education, Tyler J. Morgan, Donna Riley, Caroline M. Camfield

Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship

The goal of this research is to design a learning module for Purdue first-year engineering (FYE) students to learn climate fundamentals, and the role of engineers in responding to climate justice challenges. There is a lack of climate material within these classes currently, leading to a lack of climate conscious engineers in the future. The project entailed reviewing and synthesizing a wide variety of previous research on climate change education in engineering, including key learning objectives and their assessment. Because one of the key foci of the first-year engineering sequence relates to data analysis and management, we focused our work …


Modeling Energy Efficiency Of Solar Thermal Powered Batch Reverse Osmosis, Lahiri Chitturi May 2022

Modeling Energy Efficiency Of Solar Thermal Powered Batch Reverse Osmosis, Lahiri Chitturi

Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship

Batch reverse osmosis is the most energy efficient water desalination method and when powered by renewable energy, suggests promise for a cost-effective, low-carbon solution. One abundant energy source on Earth is solar energy which can be implemented using solar panels which have an established maximum efficiency of 25%, or solar thermal engines which can outperform solar photovoltaic systems by achieving higher efficiencies between 20% and 40% according to market research. Here, an approach to model and quantify the energy efficiency of a direct-drive solar thermal powered batch reverse osmosis system is presented to indicate the feasibility of pursuing this technology. …


Managing Humidity In Electronics Using Water Vapor-Selective Membranes, Songhao Wu, Andrew J. Fix, Allison Mou, David M. Warsinger, James Braun May 2022

Managing Humidity In Electronics Using Water Vapor-Selective Membranes, Songhao Wu, Andrew J. Fix, Allison Mou, David M. Warsinger, James Braun

Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship

Abstract: As outdoor electronics have become prevalent in every aspect of daily life, handling humidity in them is an emerging issue for reliable devices. As water vapor enters the electronics enclosure, there is a risk of condensation, which could prevent the electronics from functioning and further damage the device. Traditionally, the humidity removal for electronics is usually done by heating the air within the enclosure, which can be energy-intensive and less efficient. Vapor selective membrane systems are promising alternatives for air heating dehumidification as they do not require heating energy for water vapor removal. It allows water vapor transport through …


Assessing Learning Processes Rather Than Outcomes: Using Critical Incidents To Explore Student Learning Abroad, Kirsten A. Davis, David B. Knight Mar 2022

Assessing Learning Processes Rather Than Outcomes: Using Critical Incidents To Explore Student Learning Abroad, Kirsten A. Davis, David B. Knight

School of Engineering Education Faculty Publications

There is an increasing emphasis on assessing student learning outcomes from study abroad experiences, but this assessment often focuses on a limited range of outcomes and assessment methods. We argue for shifting to assessing student learning processes in study abroad and present the critical incident technique as one approach to achieve this goal. We demonstrate this approach in interviews with 79 students across a range of global engineering programs, through which we identified 173 incidents which were analyzed to identify common themes. This analysis revealed that students described a wide range of experiences and outcomes from their time abroad. Students’ …


Using Rwis Data For Winter Maintenance Decision Support, Tony Coventry Mar 2022

Using Rwis Data For Winter Maintenance Decision Support, Tony Coventry

Purdue Road School

Road weather information systems (RWIS) data is the key component to winter maintenance decision support systems (MDSS) and solutions. In this session we will learn about the FHWA’s Weather Data Environment (WxDE), a national road weather data sharing program; how the data is integrated into decision support solutions, network monitoring, and research projects. Discussion will also include strategic application of road weather data in winter maintenance decision making.

The Future Of Transportation Funding, Steve E. Morello Mar 2022

The Future Of Transportation Funding, Steve E. Morello

Purdue Road School

Among the many collaterals impacts of vehicle electrification is a reduction in funding for government agencies who rely heavily on fuel taxation—over 75B annually—for transportation needs. States and the federal government are actively exploring user-based funding alternatives to pay for the next generation of roads that will be used by the next generation of vehicles.
