Purdue ROV: Technical Report
No full textThis 25-page report, published by Purdue University, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the Purdue ROV team for the Explorer Class of the 2023 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build underwater ROVs to complete challenges. The competition is split into the following classes based on build complexity: Explorer, Ranger, Pioneer, Navigator, and Scout.The report begins with an abstract introducing Purdue ROV and their ROV followed by a discussion of safety. Next, the report goes into detail on aspects of mechanical design (frame, pneumatic enclosure, etc.), mission tools (ultraviolet tool, rolly claw, etc.), electrical design (backplane, power conversion board, etc.), and software design (pilot interface, computer vision, etc.). Finally, logistics and conclusions are covered. The following appendices are included: Safety Checklist, SID (systems integration diagram) (SW, Fluid, & Electrical), Task List, Sponsors, and, References.Manuals for each competition class and technical reports from other teams are available to view separately

R for Data Science (2e)
No full textThis E-textbook, written by statisticians Hadley Wickham, Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel, and Garrett Grolemund, provides learners with the information needed to use R to put data science into practice. The material in the textbook has been designed for those with a data science background and focuses on using R to transform data, change its structure, visualize data, and model it. Within each part, students learn how to perform a variety of R functions relating to data science, such as importing data, tidying data, R markdown, transforming data, vectors, and more. The E-book has 29 chapters split into the following parts:Part 1: Whole GamePart 2: Data VisualizationPart 3: Transforming DataPart 4: Importing DataPart 5: ProgrammingPart 6: Communicating Dat

Synchronous Motor Starters (Part 2 of 2)
No full textThis video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the second part of a two part lecture on synchronous motor starters. The lecture covers the challenges and methods of starting synchronous motors and provides an overview of various types of synchronous motor starters. In this video, presenter Jim Pytel discusses the "coordination and protection mechanisms inside a DC (direct current) exciter circuit." Additionally, Pytel examines "the operation of components like the field discharge resistor, the field contactor and field discharge switch, the polarized field frequency relay (PFFR), out of step relay (OSR), and loss of excitation relay (LOE)."This video runs 18:31 minutes in length. The first part of the lecture is available to view separatel
Learning Activities 7.1-7 3: Graphing Pressure Curves in Excel
No full textThis video, published by Erie Community College, provides instructions on graphing pressure curves using linear and semi-logarithmic scales in Microsoft Excel. During the video, Elena Brewer, professor at Erie Community College, guides learners through the process of creating a graph and inputting data to compare pressure measurements from each activity. The data used in the video originates from three vacuum pump-down activities featured in the student lab manual.The video corresponds with lessons in a student lab manual and instructor guide that accompanies the Introduction to Vacuum Technology E-book. This textbook provides an introduction to vacuum technology and science, and features topics curated to the needs of technicians in a production environment. The guides include student questions and a data table corresponding to the video.The video runs 14:15 minutes in length. The E-book, and related student and instructor guides, videos, and labs are available to view separately
Learning Activity 9: Data for the Rate of Rise Curves - Introduction
No full textIn this video, published by Erie Community College, Professor Elena Brewer from Erie Community College provides an introduction to activity nine of the student lab manual, where learners measure pressure and pump-down time to examine the effects of leaks in rough vacuum systems. Learners will collect three data sets during the pump-down process: one with no leaks, one with a real leak, and one with a virtual leak. Using the data sets, learners will create pump-down curves that reflect the presence and type of leak in the rough vacuum system. Brewer guides learners through the process of data-gathering for this activity.The video corresponds with lessons in a student lab manual and instructor guide that accompanies the Introduction to Vacuum Technology E-book. This textbook provides an introduction to vacuum technology and science, and features topics curated to the needs of technicians in a production environment. The guides include student questions and a data table corresponding to the video.The video runs 2:43 minutes in length.
