4. Audience assessment is key.

5. Cognitive science informs how we should design slides.

6. Research tells us to carefully control channel load. hearsee

7. Sentence headers are your most efficient way to communicate key ideas.

11. Embryonic stem cells can become nerve cells. Stem Cell Differentiatio n http://www.biologyjunction.com/stemcell_article.htm

12. Wireless signaling could offset some of the complexity of the hardware. Aux Systems Sensors Connection boxes

13. Edit, distill, and control bullets.

14. Cut Quality Analysis (Test 1) Why is % Break on cut surface important? Clonmel's PG header attach process requires a smooth, sheared wire end so that it can be detected by cameras and sensors using reflected light. – Currently requesting a break area of 25-40%, but primary concern is consistency – Need to ensure the percentage of shear area on the wire end meets the need of header attach processes Each wire end was viewed under microscope. The break area of the cut surface was estimated based on visual inspection. Break Shear Break Shear

16. Maintenance (Third Phase) Another maintenance contract with Balfour Beatty began in 2002 – £180,000,000 / $ 270,000,000 contract – £18,000,000 / $27,000,000 per year until 2012 – Coating process Blast cleaning to remove lead based paint Zinc base primer to prevent corrosion Glass flake epoxy intermediate coat Polyurethane gloss top coat to give an attractive “Forth Bridge Red” finish Estimated life span >20 years

17. A maintenance contract for the Fourth Rail bridge started in 2002.

18. Layer in information to control how and when the audience sees it.

21. 21 Current analyses use finite boundary conditions and return finite outputs. Fatigue Analysis 4000 RPM 58 bar pmax Main Bearing Loads 135° C 46 [N] bolt clamp load Life = 2222 hours material properties

22. 22 4000 RPM 58 bar pmax Main Bearing Loads 135° C Fatigue Analysis Life = 2222 hours 46 [N] bolt clamp load Material Properties RPM Material Properties pmax Reliability If the distribution in the boundary conditions are accounted for, reliability can be predicted.

23. Create slide decks that function fully as legacy items.

24. Using notes and archiving presentations allows slides to perform two distinct roles.

26. Create complete archival materials using NOTES.

27. Archive PDFs to maximize information capture.

28. Slide visual Full explanatory notes

30. Remember, the talk is not the archive.

31. Take away these ideas: sentence headers

32. Take away these ideas: fewer bullets Shear

33. Take away these ideas: layered info
