Effect of reversing lamination scheme
Get PDFNew numerical results are generated for in-plane compressive biaxial buckling which serves to quantify the effect of reversing lamination scheme on buckling loading. The buckling loads have been determined for two modulus ratios 40 and 5. It is observed that the buckling loads are completely the same for the given first three modes. Therefore, it can be concluded that the buckling load of laminated plates will remain the same even if the lamination order is reversed. The reason behind this is that the transformed elastic coefficients are equal for both lamination schemes

Learning problems on brain disorders
Get PDFThe learning problems have aimed at identifying the disorders or disorders of the brain, that has perceived as conflicts of the cognitive system prevent the acquisition of significant knowledge. Among the most frequent problems are mentioned three: Dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia that make it impossible for students to increase reading, writing and mathematical processes, causing disadvantages in the development of skills and abilities. The need for teachers in pedagogical interventions has raised, since they work in conjunction with psychologists and psychologists in order to take control from the detection of a problem and progress, identifying weaknesses and strengths that facilitate the proper application of pedagogical techniques and methods. The methodology applied in this investigation was inductive-deductive, emphasizing the study of problems from the particular to the general and included techniques such as survey, interview, control cards, and observation card. This will have a significant impact on society as critical, analytical and reflective students have formed, who develop in the educational, family and social environment
Teaching strategies and technology integration in developing blended learning of applied mathematics subject
Get PDFApplied Mathematics is a basic skill that determines the success of students in pursuing their education in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Besides having to understand concepts and be able to solve cases according to the topics taught, students are also required to be able to solve mathematical engineering problems in the application of mechanical engineering. This makes it a difficult subject for the majority of students. This difficulty is overcome by applying blended learning. This is done by integrating curriculum design with strategy and use of learning technology so that innovation and teaching excellence are formed to support the learning process of students. Learning strategies that can be applied include explanations of concepts, problem-based learning, problem-solving and case discussions. This learning strategy is supported by multimedia technology and internet-based, namely video tutorials, discussion of material and examples of online-based cases and online discussion forums. The process of face-to-face learning in class is still being carried out. The key to the success of this learning lies in the ability to create interactions between students and fellow students, with teachers, with the community, with the material with the use of existing technology
