Today we are going to highlight some labs created by Dr. Greg Mason for ASEE 2018 workshop. The labs use the Digilent Basys MX3, and cover the basics of using the platform. They also cover freeRTOS and how the hardware and software can be used in a Mechanical Engineering data acquisition and instrumentation courses.
The author is Greg Mason, a Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Seattle University. He teaches control systems, instrumentation, and numerical methods courses.
According to the author:
The workshop highlights four labs from a mechanical engineering course: multitasking and timing; experimentally determining the convective heat transfer coefficient of a sphere; measuring fundamental frequency of a vibrating beam; and implementing feedback control with a servomotor and encoder. Each lab is discussed in detail with respect to its learning objectives and required hardware. The workshop includes a set of hands on activities, using a Basys MX3 board and freeRTOS, that are related to these labs.
This material is available on the website.
So make sure to check out the labs as well as other great reference material on the Digilent wiki!
Great article! Thank you for sharing.
The educators here put stock in you and will do all that they can in pushing you to accomplish your objective evaluations as well as even surpass them and improve.
It’s not anyway simply down to the instructors, you yourself need to remain concentrated and on track so as to do this.
It’s an amicable situation where you will be dealt with like a grown-up and given enough duties.
The educators will likewise address the principle issues that you have with test strategy and amendment and will in this manner help you to accomplish better reviews in future tests.
