Integrating philosophy of science in civil engineering: an integrative course design strategy

Integrating Ethics into a Civil Engineering Course

Ethics is a critical component of Civil Engineering education and practice. This paper discusses a case study to integrate ethics into a required undergraduate Civil Engineering course -Civil Engineering Systems -at Georgia Institute of Technology. The course introduces systems and sustainability concepts in Civil Engineering planning, design, operations, and renewal, and thus presents an appro...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

An Integrative Process Model for Cooperation Support in Civil Engineering

Planning processes in civil engineering are highly complex and characterised by a great number of participants and heterogeneous, distributed planning resources in terms of software methods, models and means of communication. The interaction, communication and information exchange between planning participants must be organised in computer networks. This paper presents an integrative process mo...

design of an analog fuzzy logic controller chip

fuzzy logic has been developed over the past three decades into a widely applied techinque in classification and control engineering. today fuzzy logic control is one of the most important applications of fuzzy set theory and specially fuzzy logic. there are two general approachs for using of fuzzy control, software and hardware. integrated circuits as a solution for hardware realization are us...
