5 Course Syllabus Course overview and objectives: This is a design-driven course with emphasis placed on skills such as: team-working, communication skills (graphical, oral, and written), and computer-aided design and analysis tools. The course will introduce students to the engineering approach to problem solving with strong references to basic science and math skills, as well as testing and evaluating design ideas by building prototypes. The design projects are the total of at least 30 hours of in-class work (one third of the course). Two design projects will be assigned during the semester. The design projects will require the students to work in a team. The course grade for the students will reflect their abilities to function effectively as team players. Computing: Internet Skills: Graphics: Lab Skills: Skills acquired by students during the course: Solid Modeling/CAD, EXCEL (spreadsheet), PowerPoint (multimedia presentation) Designing and publishing a basic webpage Sketching, orthographic projections, multiview drawings, scales, dimensioning, isometric pictorial, oblique pictorial, sections, working drawings experimental methods, data acquisition & analysis, prototype building & testing 4

9 Design Project One Problem Statement: Design Task and Problem Statement An individual is having problems transferring groceries, or other items, from the store to home without a vehicle. The individual needs a shopping cart that is foldable, light weight, durable, easy to use, and ideal for transporting goods while remaining cost efficient. Mission Statement: To design, and build a prototype of, a foldable shopping cart that is easy to use, ideal for transporting goods, compact, and cost efficient. Design Specifications: The folding shopping cart should be easy to use (and assemble, if required). The folding shopping cart should be ideal for transporting groceries and some other materials. The folding shopping cart should fold compactly for easy storage. The material cost for the folding shopping cart should not exceed $50 unless it can be justified. The folding shopping cart should have a weight capacity of 100 lbs. 8

15 Design Features Flat Base The flat base improves stability while providing a level for large objects Extendable arms The extendable arms gives the cart height and makes a place for the second storage level, while still being compact while folded Two Storage levels The lower level can hold large objects such as cases of water and other objects The upper level can hold more average groceries Aluminum Frame The aluminum poles are light while still having structural integrity Ultra Strong Synthetic Fabric The fabric basket has the capability to hold 100 pounds while being light and flexible, making it easy to unfold and hold groceries Two 360 Degree wheels Two full turning radius wheels give the cart a tight turning radius while still being easily maneuverable 14

16 Design Project Two Problem Statement: Design Task and Problem Statement There needs to be a more innovative way to carry out water purification processes that is not only economically viable, but also sustainable and more productive as well. This is due to the time consuming process of filtering the brine water that has been in place for many years. Mission Statement: To help rectify the initial problems with water purification in the fracking process by making introducing a method that can easily solve the problem in economically sound, and environmentally friendly way. Design Specifications: The design with an innovative way to treat the water on-site to produce marketable by-products. Considerations must be made for sustainability/environment, regulations, safety, cost, schedule/cycle time and transportation of the material(s). Must be relatively different from the current process that Chevron uses to treat the water. 15

21 FIG. 16 Prototype Picture Design Features: - Versatile Terrain - The ponds can be built in almost any terrain. - Biome Differentiation - The halophytes can be selected based on the location so the plant is always indigenous to the biome of the well site. - Fence - A fence surrounds the ponds that keeps animals from drinking the brine water, potentially making them sick. - Amount of Ponds - The amount of ponds, and the volume of the ponds, can be changed to accompany the amount of wells and water treated per site. - Halophyte Water Treatment - Halophytes absorb the salts in the water effectively purifying the water over time. On average, it will take 6.3 days for a single pond with 1000 plants to process one wells worth of water 20

22 Summary Intro to Engineering Design 100 was exactly as it sounded. A comprehensive introduction to engineering principles, practices, ethics, and ideas. Throughout the course we had three separate types of days. They included design team days, drawing days, and solidworks days. On team days, we worked on the design projects in randomly assigned teams with 3-4 people in them. Throughout the design projects I was introduced to the design process and given an idea of what it is like to participate in a true engineering environment. During drawing days, I learned the normal conventions of engineering drawings including isometrics, obliques, section views, and working drawings. We had a number of homework problems that affirmed our knowledge on each of these topics. The last type of day was based on the solidworks computer program. On these days we learned the basics of solidworks through tutorials and support from our two teaching assistants. All of those tutorials culminated into a final design project which showed all of my solidworks skills (final drawing shown above in work examples section as figure 4). Over these three types of days, my classmates and I developed an understanding of what it is to be a world class engineer as described on the first day of class by our teacher, Xinli Wu. 21
