Full textAbstract:
Human factors research programs within commercial industries are frequently avoided because of escalating costs associated with data collection and reduction. Other prohibiting factors limiting the use of traditional research methods in industry are manpower costs, accounting procedures for overhead allocation, and the availability of qualified personnel. The department of Computer and Electrical Engineering Technology at Kent State University, Tuscarawas Campus has developed a program for supporting the projects from the NCR Human Factors Department of the Retail Systems Division. This program has provided students an opportunity to (1) acquire new skills rarely experienced in classroom assignments; (2) obtain financial assistance, and (3) obtain exposure to potential employers. This program began as a pilot and has continued to grow because of the demand in retail businesses for the work supported by the students.

Full textAbstract:
This article studies the development and implementation of different electronic devices for measuring signals during stress situations, specifically in academic contexts in a student group of the Engineering Department at the University of Pamplona (Colombia). For the research’s development, devices for measuring physiological signals were used through a Galvanic Skin Response (GSR), the electrical response of the heart by using an electrocardiogram (ECG), the electrical activity produced by the upper trapezius muscle (EMG), and the development of an electronic nose system (E-nose) as a pilot study for the detection and identification of the Volatile Organic Compounds profiles emitted by the skin. The data gathering was taken during an online test (during the COVID-19 Pandemic), in which the aim was to measure the student’s stress state and then during the relaxation state after the exam period. Two algorithms were used for the data process, such as Linear Discriminant Analysis and Support Vector Machine through the Python software for the classification and differentiation of the assessment, achieving 100% of classification through GSR, 90% with the E-nose system proposed, 90% with the EMG system, and 88% success by using ECG, respectively.

Full textAbstract:
The field of power and energy engineering in Jordan went through a period of decline during the period between 1990 and 2000, which resulted in students of electrical engineering pursuing other fields such as communications and computing, as the advances in the technologies of cellular communications and computer networking created more opportunities for recent graduates, and provided an attractive field of study for the students at that time. However, the recent increase in the prices of oil, and the advances in the technology of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy, resulted in a sudden revival in the field of power and energy engineering. In addition, due to the recent advances in the technologies of communication and computing, the notion of a “smart grid” emerged as the future of power and energy, which promised more career opportunities in this field. This decline in the number of skilled professionals in the field of power and energy, combined with the sudden increase in the available opportunities in the field created a gap in the Jordanian market requirements, which necessitated remedial actions to fix this phenomenon. That gap was noticeably felt in Amman, the capital of Jordan, which is also the center for the largest number of businesses in the country. Therefore, it became essential for the universities in Jordan to address this issue by offering degrees specializing in power and energy engineering. With its central location in the heart of Amman, and given its role as a leading technological university in the country and the region, Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT) established a new “power and energy engineering” program, in which a number of specialized courses were developed, and a number of state-of-the-art laboratories were established to create a competitive degree program that produces high-quality graduates, capable of tackling the challenges presented in the field of power and energy. This paper presents the most recent upgrade that was made in the power and energy laboratories in the department of electrical engineering at the university, and evaluates their overall effect on the newly established degree program, and on the quality of education and research in the university.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The following paper is a “Q&A interview” conducted by Joanne Pransky of Industrial Robot Journal as a method to impart the combined technological, business and personal experience of a prominent, robotic industry engineer-turned successful innovator and leader, regarding the challenges of bringing technological discoveries to fruition. This paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach The interviewee is Mel Torrie, CEO and President of Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI). ASI manufactures an OEM/vendor independent software and hardware solution retrofitted to existing equipment to create a wide variety of fully autonomous vehicles spanning agriculture, mining, automotive, industrial cleaning, security and government/military applications. In this interview, Torrie shares how he first got started in the robotics field along with his experiences in running his ground-breaking startup. Findings In 1999, Torrie received a Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering at Utah State University (USU) where he worked on two National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) space shuttle payloads. After his work at USU, he managed robotics development programs for John Deere, the US Department of Defense and the US Department of Energy. He founded ASI, a spin-off of the Center of Self Organizing and Intelligent Systems (CSOIS) at USU, in 2000. Originality/value Torrie was a pioneer and visionary who bootstrapped ASI from the beginning. Under Torrie’s leadership, ASI raised over $85m in a unique business model where there is no equity but only strategic partners. These foremost companies are given exclusive rights to their vertical market and jointly own their industry’s driverless vehicle’s intellectual property (IP) with ASI. The vehicles are developed and tested at ASI’s 100-acre proving ground facility in Utah. To date, ASI’s more than 100 employees and their business partners have automated 75 different vehicle types and ASI continues to create new markets. Some of ASI’s notable installations include the Bingham Canyon Mine clean-up effort; BatCat, the teleoperated CAT telehandler for the Los Angeles Police Department; and the robotic durability testing program with Ford Motors, Toyota, Fiat Chrysler Automotive, Hyundai, General Motors as well as other private proving grounds.

Mekhatronika, Avtomatizatsiya, Upravlenie 22, no. 7 (July 8, 2021): 374–82. http://dx.doi.org/10.17587/mau.22.374-382.
Full textAbstract:
The article describes the methods and test results of a solid-wave gyroscope (SVG) — an angular rate sensor (ARS), developed at the Department of Control Devices, Tula State University and manufactured by the serial plant of JSC "Michurinsky Plant" Progress "according to the technology it worked out. The metal resonator SVG-ARS is made of an elinvar alloy and has a cylindrical structure of different thickness, the lower part of which, with a smaller wall thickness, acts as a suspension for the upper cylinder, the resonator itself, which has a conical shape, providing better vibration localization at its end edge. Technological manufacturing defects, different frequencies and variability, are eliminated by balancing " by mass" based on the removal of excess metal at certain points on the end edge of the resonator. The electronic module provides the second mode of primary and secondary oscillations of the resonator edge arising during rotation and creates a signal to compensate for the Coriolis and quadrature components of the output signal at the nodes. The maximum amplitudes of the excitation and compensation signals do not exceed 10 V. Therefore, at large values of mechanical influences, the compensation circuit may not work out the increased signal and the SVG-ARS loses its operability. The total processing time of the compensation signal does not exceed 1 μs. The maximum power consumption of the electronic module is not more than 4 W. When testing for mechanical and temperature effects, the norms were used that are typical for similar devices (angular rate sensors) used on board aircraft. The tests were carried out on the bench equipment of a specialized enterprise. The stability of the zero signal and the scale factor was determined under the simultaneous action of the measured speed and temperature on the SVG-ARS. The values of the random walk and the instability of the zero signal were obtained from the Allan deviation plots. Their values provide a basis for the conclusion about the possibility of using the developed SVG for several hours on board dynamic aircraft in orientation, stabilization and navigation systems. It was found that SVG-ARS possesses impact strength and restores its measuring ability after impact. Tests for vibration resistance revealed resonance frequencies and frequency rangesin which the tested VTG-DUS sample can be used without significant modification. The results of vibration tests can be used to refine the design and control electronics for the operating conditions of a particular aircraft.

Abstract In Memoriam—In memory of Dr. Zbigniew Magonski, a talented electronic engineer and inventor, was born in Glubczyce, Poland in 1950 and passed away in Cracow, Poland in 2017. He received M.Sc. degree in Solid State Technology from the Technical University of Wrocław, Poland in 1973, and PhD degree from the AGH University of Science and Technology, Cracow, Poland in 2000. For 15 years, he was with the R&D Center for Hybrid Microelectronics, Cracow Poland. At that time, his interest was focused on hybrid A/D, D/A converters also on DC HV power converters. Later, for 28 years, he was with the Department of Electronics, AGH University of Science and Technology, Cracow, Poland. His research interests covered ceramic microfluidic systems, hydrocarbon combustors, and high-temperature solid oxide fuel cells. In 1994–1995, he was with Summit Technology, Massachusetts, involved in a project relating to HV supplying of excimer lasers. He was a member of IMAPS US Chapter, the author of 13 patents and almost 50 technical papers connected with electronic technology. He was a caring husband and father and a good friend of many of us. We will miss you, Zbyszek. This article presents a proposal of a thermal instrument intended for the evaluation of heat energy of fluid fuels. Two thermal devices the flow meter and the combustor are the basic components of the instrument. The meter maintains a constant temperature in the vicinity of the combustion zone. The amount of heat energy in the fuel is calculated as the ratio of the electric power change expressed in Watts to the change of fuel supply delivered to the combustor within a time period of 1 s. The method enables a direct evaluation of fuel energy expressed in Joules per unit of mass or volume. For some applications, the meter may be a good alternative for a bulky bomb calorimeter.

Koperasi Pegawai jurusan Teknik Elektro-Elektronika merupakan koperasi yang bergerak dibidang simpan pinjam yang dikelola oleh dosen dan staff yang berada di dalam Fakultas Teknik Universitas Negeri Padang (FT-UNP). Proses pengelolaan koperasi pegawai jurusan ini masih dalam pengelolaan yang kovensional dibagian administrasi, pengelolaan data simpan pinjam, pengelolaan angsuran pinjaman dan data-data mengenai informasi koperasi. Meskipun sudah melibatkan teknologi komputer dalam proses menyimpan dan mengelola data, akan tetapi cara tersebut tidak efektif dan efisien. Setelah melakukan riset, maka penulis menimpulan bahwa sangat dibutuhkan sistem pendukung yakni sistem informasi koperasi. Sistem informasi dirancang untuk memudahkan pengelolaan serta pengambilan keputusan dalam berbagai bidang pada suatu organisasi atau perusahaan. Sistem informasi koperasi ini dirancang menggunakan tahapan-tahapan diagram perancangan sistem dan perancangan database. Sistem koperasi ini juga melibatkan bahasa pemograman PHP dan Framework Codeigniter yang bertujuan memudahkan untuk membangun sistem dan membantu dalam pengelolaan koperasi. Sistem Informasi ini memiliki fitur, yaitu halaman registrasi pendaftaran anggota, menu simpanan, menu pinjaman, menu pengumuman mengenai infromasi tentang koperasi. Metode pengembangan sistem yang digunakan adalah Waterfall dan didukung dengan menggunakan konsep arsitektur Model View Contrholler (MVC) yang membedakan logika dan layout yang dapat dilihat dari bagaimana pengguna mengakses data dan melakukan transaksi pada sistem informasi yang dirancang ini. Pada proses pengelolaan data dan transaksi koperasi yang menggunakan metode ini jadi lebih terstruktur dan layak digunakan untuk mengolah semua data koperasi secara terkomputerisasi dan dapat dijangkau dengan mengakses sebuah web.Kata kunci : Aplikasi, Koperasi Jurusan Simpan Pinjam, MVC, Web. The Employee Cooperative majoring in Electrical-Electronic Engineering is a cooperative engaged in savings and loans managed by lecturers and staff within the Faculty of Engineering, State University of Padang (FT-UNP). The process of managing employee cooperatives in this department is still under conventional management in the administrative section, managing savings and loans data, managing loan installments and data regarding cooperative information. Although it has involved computer technology in the process of storing and managing data, this method is not effective and efficient. After doing research, the author concludes that a support system is needed, namely a cooperative information system. This cooperative information system is designed using the stages of system design diagrams and database design. This cooperative system also involves the PHP programming language and the CodeIgniter Framework which aims to make it easier to build a system and assist in managing cooperatives. This information system has features, namely member registration registration page, savings menu, loan menu, announcement menu regarding information about cooperatives. The system development method used is Waterfall and is supported by using the architectural concept of Model View Controller (MVC) which distinguishes logic and layout that can be seen from how users access data and make transactions on this designed information system. In the process of managing data and cooperative transactions using this method, it becomes more structured and feasible to use to process all cooperative data computerized and can be reached by accessing a web.Keywords: Application, Savings and Loans Department Cooperative, MVC, Web.

Full textAbstract:
This paper illustrates the learning benefits and the collective efficacy of student project teams in engineering design education. We describe the impact of learning for a fourth year design project on student lifetime knowledge at both ends: project builders (fourth year students enrolled in the three programs of Electrical, Computer and Software engineering of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of Calgary) and product users- all students taking electric circuits laboratories (for our programs or from the Faculty of Engineering-common core). Much understanding about learning and cognition has been achieved during the cognitive analysis of the course outcomes for the first course on digital circuits offered in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of Calgary. As a result, we present cognitive strategies and their use in the introduction of simple digital circuits (flip-flops) and the design of a traffic light controller. We have developed a virtual laboratory with digital circuits and instrumentation components is a first attempt to motivate students to do the pre-lab exercises for digital and electric circuits and reuse them to refresh their training in using the appropriate functions of the buttons and devices needed for any electronic data generation and acquisition. The components of this educational environment have been created based on the criteria of professionalism stated by the guidelines of the Association of Professional Engineers, Geophysicists and Geologists of Alberta (APEGGA) and the University of Calgary learning plan. Over the past four years, six student teams have undertaken and successfully accomplished design projects which produced the main components of the departmental virtual laboratory: real-time control of electronic instruments and of a traffic light, traffic signal simulation with a digitized voice synthesis tool and operational simulation of simple finite state machines. The educational site integrates exercises with progressive degree of difficulty, from simple gates to digital controllers. The students are invited to take a virtual visit of the laboratory rooms in which they will perform course required experiments in order to easier locate the devices to be used as well as operate them appropriately. For project completion, the teams have been trained to adopt a framework for implementing a hierarchical model of learning as the basis for developing skills and methods.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents an initial comparison of two approaches to energy minimization of protein molecules, namely the Molecular Dynamic Simulation and the Kineto-Static Compliance Method. Both methods are well established and are promising contenders to the seemingly insurmountable task of global optimization in the protein molecules potential energy terrain. The Molecular Dynamic Simulation takes the form of Constrained Multibody Dynamics of interconnected rigid bodies, as implemented at the Virtual Reality Application Center from Iowa State University. The Kineto-Static Compliance Method is implemented in the Protofold Computer package developed in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Connecticut. The simulation results of both methods are compared through the trajectory of potential energy, the Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) of the alpha carbons, as well as based on visual observations. The preliminary results indicate that both techniques are very effective in converging the protein structure to a state with significantly less potential energy. At present, the converged solutions for the two methods are, however, different from each other and are very likely different from the global minimum potential energy state.

Full textAbstract:
The Mechanical Engineering Department at California State University, Sacramento (CSUS) has completed the design and constructed a $250,000 Instructional Cogeneration Laboratory devoted solely to undergraduate education. This facility will serve about 100 students per year in the Department’s Mechanical Engineering (ME) and Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) programs. The major components are a 75 kW natural gas fired gas turbine-generator connected to a electrical load bank, a waste heat boiler, four heat exchangers, an absorption chiller and an existing cooling tower. Computer based data acquisition will be used to monitor pressures, temperatures, flows and stack emissions. This project has provided an excellent learning experience for ME and MET students in their senior project classes. Initial laboratory exercises will measure performance of the major pieces of equipment; future plans call for developing a series of heat transfer experiments.
