Engineering

Provide a 1000 word report. The topic is something about engineering you are passionate (that is, you care deeply). (Robotics, Data Science, Computer Science)

We don’t care about why the world of engineering is interesting to some people, we want to know why you chose engineering: Why do you put up with a long and difficult program? What about engineering makes it worth it to you? Why do you see this as something you want to spend the rest of your life doing and learning about?

 

Choose 2 international examples of cities to clarify the definition providing a description and explanation of the related urban qualities. Discuss how these elements influence lifestyle and human behavior within the different cities you studied.

Introduction to Urban Design, Elements of Urban Form

Referring to Lecture 1 – Introduction to Urban Design, Elements of Urban Form were explained in general.

o Urban Structure

o Urban Grain

o Density + Mix

o Height and Massing

o Streets cape + Landscape

o Facade + Interface

In your group, choose elements of the above and do an in-depth reading and searching about them providing a comprehensive comparative analysis on case studies as part of the group work.

→ A group of 4 will cover 4 elements. A group of 3 will cover 3 elements.

→ Give a coherent presentation summary. (25 – 30slides maximum).

Include the following:

  1. For each element – A thorough explanation and definition.
  2. For each element – choose 2 international examples of cities to clarify the definition providing a description and explanation of the related urban qualities. Ideally the 2 examples should contrast in a way or another from the point of view you are studying. (Use maps, diagrams, photographs, and info-graphics).
  3. As a group, choose 1 neighborhood or district in Riyadh city (it could be the neighborhood you live in or regularly visit). Provide an analysis of the neighborhood explaining and reflecting on all chosen elements. (Use maps, diagrams, photographs, and info-graphics).
  4. Discuss how these elements influence lifestyle and human behavior within the different cities you studied.
  5. Names of all group members should be included.

  2. Describe one type of waste not provided in the company example (given in class under the 8 deadly waste), providing an example of the waste and how you could reduce this waste and a lean tool that could be used, explain how this tool will help to reduce waste?
  3. Explain how a leader, coach, scribe and member: complete their task on a team, providing an example for each which you have seen in real life on a team you were involved in?
  4. Explain the advantage to understanding your learning style and provide an example of how understanding this improving your knowledge in any of your college courses?
  5. Why is profit important to you and potentially to a company either you work for or will work for at some point? BE descriptive!

 

Find the relationship for how the temperature distribution changes with time with respect the un-deformed rod and the deforming rod.

Biomedical Engineering

 Lets say you were interest in looking at temperature distribution as a rod deforms. You have found the point map for the rod:

x = (1 + t)X

As well as the distribution of temperature in the Lagrangian description.

T = Xt^2

Find the relationship for how the temperature distribution changes with time with respect the un-deformed rod and the deforming rod.

How many bits do we need to represent a variable that can only take on the values 11, 22, 33, or 44? If the only value a variable can take on is 32.16, how many bits are needed to represent it?

Counting

Bit strings can be used to represent more than just numbers. In fact, we use bit strings to represent everything inside a computer. And, because we don’t want to be wasteful with bits, it is important to remember that n bits can be used to represent 2n distinct numbers. For each of the following questions, answer with the minimum number of bits possible:

3.1 Exercises

  1. (5 pts) How many bits do we need to represent a variable that can only take on the values 11, 22, 33, or 44?
  1. (5 pts) If the only value a variable can take on is 32.16, how many bits are needed to represent it?

Unsigned Integers

If we have an n-digit unsigned numeral dn-1dn-2…d0 in radix (or base) r, then the value of that numeral is, which is basically saying that instead of a 10’s or 100’s place we have an r’s or r2’s place. For binary, decimal, and hex r equals 2, 10, and 16, respectively.

Just a reminder that in order to write down a large number, we typically use the IEC or SI prefixing system:

IEC: Ki = 210, Mi = 220, Gi = 230, Ti = 240, Pi = 250, Ei = 260, Zi = 270, Yi = 280; SI: K = 103, M = 106, G = 109, T = 1012, P = 1015, E = 1018, Z = 1021, Y = 1024.
