This wrap-up presentation covers key learnings from various engineering projects including the Water Tower, Bridge, and Robot Projects. It explores the engineering design process, discussing assumptions and material limits, and delves into bridge types with a focus on force analysis (tension vs. compression). Teamwork and timeline management are highlighted, as well as the use of simulation software and prototype testing. Additionally, it examines logical systems in robotics, with insights into programming strategies and gear ratios. Critical questions about efficiency and design mechanisms are also posed for deeper analysis.

ENGR100 Class Wrap up Feng-Ju Hsieh
Water Tower Project • Engineering Design Process • Assumption • Material Limits? • IBM-Think • APPLE-Think Different
Bridge Project • Bridge Type • Force Analysis: Tension vs Compression • How to do Teamwork, Time line? • Component Test. • Simulation Software • Prototype, Final Design • Tips: length, strength, shape…
Logic and Electric Wiring Project • Logic Gate • Switch combination • Real Application • LabVIEW
Robot Project • History and Future • Basic Two Components of Robot (Brain, Body) • Brain Storming Strategy (Offense and defense) • Programming Skill • Gear Ratio=driven gear R2 : driving gear R1 A small gear driving a larger gear will amplify torque
Question for Extra Points • If big wheels are less efficient for towing, why do tractors have big wheels? [Hint] Think about the force that actually pushes the vehicle to move forward. What’s the criteria of this kind of force and its relationship to the torque generated from engine and to the force that tows cargo?
