From the GeoExchange Initiative at Gateway Technical College, this Course Outcome Summary describes the Flushing, Purging and Pressurizing course in which advanced students learn "leak and pressure testing of the completed loopfield and the associated headers and supply/return runs from inside the...

This webpage includes an animation of a formation of a PN Junction Diode and its Band Diagram. This interactive applet is a good way to help students see the relationship.

This article from SPIE describes how dielectric breakdown and wet etching may provide a method of fabricating 3D nano- and microscale channels inside transparent dielectric materials. The article includes several graphics which help to illustrate the concept.

This site includes a Java applet that displays Fourier series approximations and corresponding magnitude and phase spectra of a periodic continuous-time signal. Select from provided signals, or draw a signal with the mouse.

This website provides information on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). On this page users will find an introduction to FPGA, projects, interfaces, software, and quick start guides. Some projects include music box, LED displays, R/C servos, graphic LCD panel, and more. 

This lesson plan demonstrates the toughness of Corelle material and relates the behavior of Corelle plates to the material's design and structure. The students will examine a Corelle plate and ask the questions: Why don't Corelle plates break and how are they manufactured? The module would be...

This 20 page case study, from the Building Efficiency for a Sustainable Tomorrow (BEST) National Center, provides an overview of the facility management, maintenance, and operations of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. Best practices are highlighted to "provide snap-shots of...

This tutorial is provided by National Instruments and introduces users to frequency modulation (FM). "Frequency modulation (FM) is a form of modulation in which changes in the carrier wave frequency correspond directly to changes in the baseband signal." This tutorial includes a table of contents...

This paper, from Roger Bohn at the University of California, San Diego, "models knowledge about manufacturing methods as a directed graph of cause-effect relationships." The paper covers changes in knowledge over time, including the shift from art to science in technical and manufacturing knowledge.

This presentation, provided by the Building Efficiency for a Sustainable Tomorrow (BEST) Center, is from the BEST Center's 2023 Annual Institute. During this presentation, the presenter share[s] an Emissions Reduction Audit Checklist developed by the Department of Energy and Lawrence Berkeley...
