Engineering Research Deployment Teaching Initiative: Effective Engineering and Design Courseware via Boundary Methods

9409852 Kane该项目部署了先进的边界元素分析（BEA）模拟技术，具有独特的潜力，可以在工程和设计教育中创建真正有效的课件。它将开发、演示并广泛传播由此产生的原型工程和设计课件。该项目将先进的边界公式的引人注目的属性与当代/新兴的硬件和软件以及技术通信和出版（电子和古典）方面的实践结合起来。一个工程和技术交流团队将通过交互式BEA“引擎”开发创新的多媒体课件，并将由此产生的能力整合到工程系列讲座中，并有可能纳入工程教科书。边界公式计算机模拟技术更易于在基础工程学科（即固体和流体力学或传热与设计）的教学中部署。这种技术可以实现真正的互动性，广泛可用，并且在一个学术学期的背景下，教师和学生都可以随时使用，而不需要大量的学习曲线。因此，交互式计算机程序的主动部署，可以忠实地模拟和描述物理系统的响应，作为工程教学过程的一个组成部分。

9409852 Kane This project deploys advanced boundary element analysis (BEA) simulation techniques with the unique potential for creation of truly effective courseware in engineering and design education. It will develop, demonstrate, and broadly disseminate the resulting protype engineering and design courseware. The project synergizes compelling attributes of advanced boundary formulations, with contemporary/emerging hardware and software, and practices in technical communications and publishing (electronic and classical). An engineering and technical communications team will develop innovative, multimedia courseware via an interactive BEA "engine", and integrate the resulting capability in an engineering lecture series with potential for incorporation in engineering textbooks. Boundary formulated computer simulation techniques are more amendable to deployment in the instruction of fundamental engineering subjects (i.e., solid and fluid mechanics or heat transfer and design). Such technology can be made truly interactive, widely available, and readily usable by both instructors and students in the context of an academic semester without an extensive learning curve. Thus, the active deployment of interactive computer programs that can faithfully simulate and depict the response of physical systems as an integral part of the engineering instruction process is developed.
