Is it Time to separate Applied Science and Engineering?
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, the author proposes that the longterm health of engineering education in Canada would be served well by separating applied science and engineering. The rationale for such a separation is presented, along with some suggestions for how the two streams, each leading to a doctorate, could be implemented.

An Optimization Model for Epidemic Mitigation and Some Theoretical and Applied Generalizations
In this paper, we present a binary-linear optimization model to prevent the spread of an infectious disease in a community. The model is based on the remotion of some connections in a contact network in order to separate infected nodes from the others. By using this model we nd an exact optimal solution and determine not only the minimum number of deleted links but also their exact positions. T...
متن کاملTime integration of rectangular membrane free vibration using spline-based differential quadrature
In this paper, numerical spline-based differential quadrature is presented for solving the boundary and initial value problems, and its application is used to solve the fixed rectangular membrane vibration equation. For the time integration of the problem, the Runge–Kutta and spline-based differential quadrature methods have been applied. The Runge–Kutta method was unstable for solving the prob...
متن کاملRecovery of Vanadium from Esfahan Steel Company Steel Slag; Optimizing of Roasting and Leaching Parameters
In this Study, vanadium recovery from the steelmaking converter slag was studied. Salt roasting-basic leaching is the process which was applied to separate and extract vanadium from steel making slag. Ground slag was roasted after mixing with determined quantities of sodium carbonate. The effect of time and temperature of roasting and sodium carbonate content were studied. The optimum temperatu...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Non-Trial-and-Error Design Method for Double Screen Frequency Selective Surfaces
An intelligent design method of double screen frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) is addressed in this paper. The employed unit cell is composed of two metallic screens, which are printed on both sides of a substrate. The presented non-trial-and-error approach is investigated based on the separate design of each screen. With the help of some physical intuition and an equivalent circuit model, i...
متن کاملDecreasing Starting Current for Separate Excited DC Motor using ANFIS Controller
Today, DC motors is still being used globally due to their easy speed controllability. In this article, an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) controller is designed for DC motors. The main purpose of performing such task is to reduce the DC motor starting current and deleting the ripple current during starting time in considering control parameters such as: rise time, settling time, ...
