Book Description
Mechanical Engineering is defined nowadays as a discipline “which involves the application of principles of physics, design, manufacturing and maintenance of mechanical systems”. Recently, mechanical engineering has also focused on some cutting-edge subjects such as nanomechanics and nanotechnology, mechatronics and robotics, computational mechanics, biomechanics, alternative energies, as well as aspects related to sustainable mechanical engineering. This book covers mechanical engineering higher education with a particular emphasis on quality assurance and the improvement of academic institutions, mechatronics education and the transfer of knowledge between university and industry.

Book Description
This book offers invaluable insights about the full spectrum of core design course contents systematically and in detail. This book is for instructors and students who are involved in teaching and learning of ‘capstone senior design projects’ in mechanical engineering. It consists of 17 chapters, over 300 illustrations with many real-world student project examples. The main project processes are grouped into three phases, i.e., project scoping and specification, conceptual design, and detail design, and each has dedicated two chapters of process description and report content prescription, respectively. The basic principles and engineering process flow are well applicable for professional development of mechanical design engineers. CAD/CAM/CAE technologies are commonly used within many project examples. Thematic chapters also cover student teamwork organization and evaluation, project management, design standards and regulations, and rubrics of course activity grading. Key criteria of successful course accreditation and graduation attributes are discussed in details. In summary, it is a handy textbook for the capstone design project course in mechanical engineering and an insightful teaching guidebook for engineering design instructors.

Book Description
"This book is believed to be the first to specifically address mechanical engineering education. It is divided into three sections : pedagogy, curriculum, and future. The pedagogy section contains seven chapters on various aspects of enhancing student learning. Chapter one concerns research regarding mechanical engineering (ME) students' learning preferences. ME students are much more visual and prefer more problem solving compared to the general population. Chapter two is on leveraging technology to elevate pedagogy. The authors show many different ways of using technologies, such as the use of iMovie and Doceri, to enhance the practice of teaching. Chapter three on mastery-based learning concerns assessing students on what skills they can do well rather than almost solely on how well they do on exams. Chapter four discusses how team-based assignments can be used to meet multiple student outcomes. Examples are given for a fluid mechanics lab and a thermodynamics class. Chapter five describes how team-based active learning can be used to expose students to the aerospace design process and industry practices. Chapter six shows how a problem-based learning approach was converted to an entrepreneurially minded learning approach in a mechatronics design course. The application of the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) framework showed a significant increase in the students' entrepreneurial mindset. Chapter seven recommends the inclusion of open-ended problems in courses at all levels to help prepare students for real-world problems, which often have multiple possible correct solutions. Section two on curriculum has five chapters more specifically on ME courses and programs. Chapter eight advocates incorporating more hands-on design into the ME curriculum because of its importance in practice. Chapter nine shows an example of how an entrepreneurial mindset can be fostered and developed in an engineering experimentation course. Chapter ten demonstrates how research has shown that replacing thermodynamic tables, which students often struggle to use, with thermodynamic property charts can help students form better mental models. Chapter eleven discusses the use of active learning techniques to more effectively incorporate the teaching of materials in the ME curriculum. Chapter twelve considers how reverse engineering can be incorporated into the ME curriculum. While original design is incorporated into the ME curriculum, reverse engineering of existing designs can be a valuable addition that can help prepare MEs for professional practice. Section three has two chapters related to the future. Chapter thirteen discusses how ME students can be more effectively prepared for their future in the industry, not so much by changing the curriculum, but by changing the teaching approach. Some examples include less theory and more practice, improved problem solving and simulating the industrial work environment. The authors include those who work or have worked full time in industry and work part time or full time in academia, as well as two relatively recent ME graduates. The last chapter discusses possible future areas of research for improving mechanical engineering education. Those areas include, for example, improved course content, curriculum, communication, assessment, virtual reality, codes and standards, multimedia and innovation/entrepreneurship"--

Book Description
Make and test projects are used as introductory design experiences in almost every engineering educational institution world wide. However, the educational benefits and costs associated with these projects have been seldom examined. Make and Test Projects in Engineering Design provides a serious examination of the design of make and test projects and their associated educational values. A taxonomy is provided for the design of make and test projects as well as a catalogue of technical information about unconventional engineering materials and energy sources. Case studies are included based on the author’s experience of supervising make and test projects for over twenty-five years. The book is aimed at the engineering educator and all those planning and conducting make and test projects. Up until now, this topic has been dealt with informally. Make and Test Projects in Engineering Design is the first book that formalises this important aspect of early learning in engineering design. It will be an invaluable teaching tool and resource for educators in engineering design.

Book Description
Effective design and manufacturing, both of which are necessary to produce high-quality products, are closely related. However, effective design is a prerequisite for effective manufacturing. This new book explores the status of engineering design practice, education, and research in the United States and recommends ways to improve design to increase U.S. industry's competitiveness in world markets.
