A Review of Literature on Teaching Engineering Design Through Project‐Oriented Capstone Courses
TL;DR: The standard practices and current state of capstone design education throughout the country as revealed through a literature search of over 100 papers relating to engineering design courses is described in this paper, where major topics include the development of Capstone design courses, course descriptions, project information, details of industrial involvement, and special aspects of team-oriented design projects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shannon A. Zirbel,Robert J. Lang,Mark Thomson,Deborah A. Sigel,Phillip Walkemeyer,Brian P. Trease,Spencer P. Magleby,Larry L. Howell +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a mathematical model for modifying the pattern to accommodate material thickness in the context of the design, modeling, and testing of a deployable system inspired by an origami six-sided flasher model.
Book
Handbook of compliant mechanisms
TL;DR: Because compliant mechanisms are relatively new compared to more traditional devices, it is difficult to find examples and resources to guide the device designers in their work.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Survey of Capstone Engineering Courses in North America
TL;DR: A survey of Capstone courses in engineering departments throughout North America was conducted in order to understand current practices in Capstone education as discussed by the authors, with 360 departments from 173 schools responding to the survey.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generalized 3-D tolerance analysis of mechanical assemblies with small kinematic adjustments
TL;DR: In this paper, the direct linearization method (DLM) is used for tolerance analysis of 3D mechanical assemblies, based on 3D vector loops which represent the dimensional chains that produce tolerance stackup in an assembly.
