Development of an advanced electromechanical system requires a blend of technical expertise and knowledge, from electrical and mechanical engineering to software and system engineering. Engineers working in this field must be able to understand and analyze the interrelated electrical and mechanical components, as well as computer controlling programs, to communicate with each system part. In this paper, we aim to review the requirements and technical knowledge for development of these new technologies.

Participatory Performance

This perspective analyses and reflects upon the experience of conceiving, curating and participating in Bodies:On:Live Magdalena:On:Live, the first online multi-platform Magdalena Festival, bringing together digitally competent artists with creative roots in the immateriality of the internet, in dialogue about current shifts in performance making with performers, writers, and directors declaring their uneasiness towards online adaptations of live work. As part of the global reaction to the standstill brought about by the Covid pandemic, we argue that shifts in practice for women in contemporary theatre associated with the Magdalena network – whether as an attempt for immediate artistic survival or a conscious experimental choice – were not exclusively determined by the available sharing of technical knowledge, or by the need to increase awareness of the digital medium in order to gain experience of different working modalities, but served a participatory and social purpose. These conditions were surfacing due to the digital space manifesting as a specific format of gathering through the Zoom windows and other platforms, which framed the encounters within a democratic performance arena, making the boundaries between participation and spectatorship porous. Therefore, the shift provoked by the festival not only pertains to the aesthetic sphere, but it is dynamically and organically geared towards the recognition of new working contexts arising from the unsettling experience of ‘disembodiment’ – as an ontological paradox of the original in-person Magdalena festival - and the embedded argument of the creative use of new technologies for a more sustainable and accessible future of performance making, both live and digital.

Pedagogical Framework

Data analytics problems, methods and software are changing rapidly. Learning how to learn new technologies might be the most important skill for students to develop in an analytics course. We present a pedagogical framework that promotes self-regulated learning and metacognition and three student-driven assignments that can be used in accounting analytics and other courses that incorporate technology. The assignment can be used by faculty who do not have training in analytics. The assignments adopt a learn-through-teaching approach that helps students: 1) define a conceptual or technical knowledge gap; 2) identify resources available for filling that gap; 3) work independently to acquire the desired knowledge; 4) break knowledge into components and arrange in a logical sequence; and 5) reinforce knowledge by presenting to others in an accessible manner. These assignments equip students with confidence and capabilities that will enable them to keep up with advances in technology.

ABSTRACTWith the electronic industry being one of the most dynamic, in terms of new technologies, electronic packages have to be designed and optimized for new and ever more demanding applications in relatively short periods of time. This, in turn, indicates a need for effective quantitative testing methodologies. In this paper, a novel hybridized use of nondestructive, noninvasive, remote, full field of view, quantitative opto-electronic holography techniques with computational modeling is presented. The hybridization is illustrated with a representative application, which shows that the combined use of opto-electronic holography techniques and computational modeling provides an effective engineering tool for nondestructive study of electro-mechanical components.

The requirements of the Engineering Education are nowadays very broad and demand a set of skills which demands not only technical knowledge but also the ability to lead and innovate and Personal and Interpersonal skills. A framework for the assessment of a potential Curricular Change is necessary to guide the analysis of the program with respect to the stakeholders and the legislation of the country, in order to develop appropriate learning outcomes. A Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate (CDIO) approach was chosen for an evaluation conducted in a mechanical Engineering Degree in Brazil. The work consisted in the application of a survey with students and professors and a literature review of the legislation and studies that raised the required competences and skills for the modern Engineer. The results show a great potential for a CDIO set of skills in Engineering Degrees in Brazil and reveal the frequent demands of stakeholders before a Curricular Change.

The provision of certain information regarding the surface layer of the equipment parts is one of the critical issues for the modern mechanical engineering. The development of new technologies of protective-strengthening treatment of critical parts surface requires the development of improved methods for surface layer material state assessment as a result of high-energy impact typical for ion-plasmatic, ion-implantation and combined treatment method. Moreover, the peculiarities of industrial mechanical engineering production require the development of simple and efficient methods of surface layer parameters checkout. The application of protective coatings complicates the use of universal method of the parts surface layer parameters assessment. The present article is devoted to the development and studying of a new method for the parts surface layer state assessment after its treatment of various types, including the protective-strengthening technologies and the application of protective coatings. The specific features of the proposed assessment method are its simplicity, reliability, and universality.

ABSTRACT In the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century the exploitation of Canada's softwood forests was transformed by the new technologies of the second Industrial Revolution. This can be understood in terms of Innis's staple thesis as the exploitation of natural resources on a margin for and using the technology of a more advanced Euro-American centre. The sociology of knowledge also provides a framework for analysis as old and new bodies of technical knowledge were possessed by and altered the relationships among different social groups. Changes were experienced both in the woods (pulpwood logging) and in the mills (pulp and paper making) in ways which were broadly similar but different in timing and other significant respects.
