SD ME-Order System 10-30-2016 ONE member per TEAM will have access to the system. That person should send me an email asking for access. tjm@engr.uconn.edu I will send back a link with basic instructions. Enter ONE order per vendor. Provide links, quotes, etc. No ebay. Amazon OK. First stop is my desk, I’ll approve it, kick it back for more info, etc. as appropriate. DO NOT enter an order and then send me an email asking me to approve it ASAP. DO NOT ask for overnight shipping without express (written, email) permission from your sponsor to absorb that cost. DO NOT bother Kelly or Tina to “rush” your order. You will get an email from the ME staff when your items arrive. Pick up (generally) is in the ME mailroom. PICK THE STUFF UP!!!
In the order dialogue enter your TEAM # when it asks for an “FRS” number Within 24 hours “processed” = next

How Can Pugh Charts Help? Problem Definition Statement WBS Structure Research Candidate Solutions Pugh Chart Initial Analysis, Evaluate Down select Most Promising Solutions
Pugh Charts- What are they? Dr. Stuart Pugh, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow Scotland studied the way product and process development projects were performed. Decision matrix ["pros" vs. "cons" lists] evaluating multiple options against each other often in relation to a baseline option. Evaluate ideas lists of characteristics judging each idea - individual criteria creates a more objective selection process.
Pugh Charts - Construction Create a Table list all of the project criteria (requirements) at a given level of detail in one column/row. Define Criteria weighted by importance arbitrarily laid out in whatever particular order suits those making the evaluations For each criteria, decide if the option the same (0) better (+) worse (-) than your datum Tally the results to determine which idea is best.
Pugh Charts Also see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_matrix Datum Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Evaluation Criteria Battery-Operated Solar Phase-change Water Bath cost + reliability - accuracy (x2) maintenance safety ease of use Total -3 +2 -1 Also see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_matrix
Pugh Charts – Customize to Your Need May want to weight some of the criteria more heavily safety may be more important than portability Use a weighting scale (1,3,5) to high light differences Can also use a score of 1 – 10 vs 0,+,- Clearly explain you scoring method !!

Simulation is a key part of Engineering Does it make sense Agrees with the physics Meets the Boundary Conditions Numerical results What do results mean? Communication What Decisions are made
Unit Problems are Simpler problems that: Demonstrate you know how to run the software compare results to known solutions Simple experiments to generate important information Breaks a complicated problem into simpler parts - analytical and experimental Help develop your approach Builds confidence In your ability to simulate the more complicated problem

Unit Problem Assignment 4 – 6 page document (in the box!) Picture describing your project Identify the Unit problems Show and EXPLAIN some results Compare to known solutions Due October 18
Unit Problem Assignment Show the “unit problems” that you need to understand and be able to run successfully in Ansys or other codes to be able to solve your sponsor problem Picture of Sponsor Problem Q h Flow in a pipe (laminar Turbulent) Indenter or Pressure Or a cylinder Cantilever beam Stress deflection 1D Heat Transfer
Oral 1 Oral 1: Oct. 4, Oct. 9, Oct. 11 Your group is assigned a day Your sponsor and faculty advisor are invited You will hand in a hard copy of your slides at the presentation For Oral 1, everyone must use the same template

Peer Assessment – Last Slide Peer Assessment - QR Code Team is executing to plan (schedule Presented results look encouraging High probability they will meet the project objectives B. Team is having some problems in executing ,but They know the issues and have a plan to recover. Moderate probability they will meet project objectives. C. Team is having serious problems in executing. No plan to recover Low probability they will meet project objectives
Oral 1 Oral 1 Schedule is on he Web Page Attendance: Attend any sessions you want besides your own You are expected to attend minimum 50% of the presentations (16 = 66(.5x.5))
Last Comments Effort is necessary BUT You are judged on results
