Universal Testing Machine for Materials Testing Laboratory

该项目将材料的计算机辅助测试引入该机构的土木工程和机械工程课程。支持该项目的实验室包括一台集成了微型计算机的Tinius Olsen万能试验机。该设备不仅允许学生在给定的实验时间内进行许多实验，而且由于该设备的自动数据采集和显示能力，学生对材料的行为有更直观的感受。这笔奖金将由受赠人支付等额的奖金。

This project introduces computer assisted testing of materials into the Civil and Mechanical Engineering curricula at this institution. The laboratory that supports this project includes a Tinius Olsen Universal Testing Machine with an integrated microcomputer. This equipment not only permits students to carry on many experiments in a given lab period, but, because of the automated data acquisition and display capabilities of the equipment, students gain a greater intuitive feel for the behavior of materials. This award is being matched by an equal sum from the grantee.
