Non-renewable resource exploitation: basic models: lecture slides
Lecture slides for an Introduction to Resource Economics course, taught by Aaron Hatcher, of the University of Portsmouth in 2008. Available in PDF format.
TALAT Lecture 2712: Design Example in Fatigue
This is a fully documented calculation example with direct reference to the actual code provisions. Its purpose is to present an outline of necessary steps but also of possible considerations for other cases or possibilities of enhancement of fatigue behaviour in service. It is based on European Standard ENV 1999-2 (Eurocode 9)
TALAT Lecture 4400: Introduction to Friction, Explosive and Ultrasonic Welding Processes of Aluminiu
This lecture gives a brief introduction to friction, explosive and ultrasonic welding techniques of aluminium; it describes the possibilities and results of joining aluminium to different metals, e.g. stainless steel. General mechanical engineering background and basic knowledge in aluminium metallurgy is assumed.
TALAT Lecture 3202: The Liquid Metal
This lecture provides an introduction to factors affecting the quality of molten aluminium. Basic knowledge of foundry practice is assumed. The student should be able to appreciate the differences between good and bad melting practices in a foundry.
TALAT Lecture 2201.01: State of the Art
This lecture gives an introduction into use of aluminium in stressed applications, with examples of the past experiences and likely future developments. A general engineering background is an advantage but the subject matter is suitable for most audiences concerned with transport and structural applications.
TALAT Lecture 3206: The Feeding of Castings
This lecture provides an introduction to the techniques used to compensate for the solidification shrinkage of castings. The students will be able to understand the basic principles of how to design a feeder system to produce a shrinkage-free casting. Basic knowledge of castings production, basic physics and metallurgy background is assumed.
TALAT Lecture 2713: Fire Design Example
Example of fire design of the industrial building. This is a fully documented calculation example with direct reference to the actual code provisions. It is based on European Standard ENV 1999-2 (Eurocode 9)
Introduction to OO Programming in Java - Classes and arithmetic
This reading material forms part of the "Classes and arithmetic" topic in the Introduction to OO Programming in Java module.
Opening access to educational resources for use and reuse
An OOER MEDEV progress report by Suzanne Hardy, Senior Advisor (Information)(March 2010). Presented at UHMLG Spring Forum, Woburn House, London. The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) announced an initial £5.7 million of funding for pilot projects that will open up existing high-quality education resources from UK higher education institutions to the world Higher Education Academy and JISC working in partnership to deliver 12-month pilot projects - formally launched in April
Mini project : credit the edit : document transcript
This is Mini Project documentation about creating and editing audio and video content. It is part of the 2009/10 BSc ( Hons ) in Multimedia Technology (course number 2ELE0075) from the University of Hertfordshire. All the mini projects are designed as level two modules of the undergraduate programmes.
It includes a project introduction and specification, day 1 and 2 project briefs and a creative brief.
The objectives of this module are to demonstrate abilities to:
o To plan, generate, s
Economics of Law: module outline
A module outline for a course on the Economics of Law delivered by Professor Antony Dnes at the Central European University. It is typical of a modern law and economics syllabus. The course provides an overview of standard models of the
economic analysis of law, based on common-law and civil-law countries: studying property rights, contracts, torts, crime, legal costs regimes, and litigation issues from an economic perspective.
Rapid Application Development - Introduction to 4GLs and Access 2007 development
This practical forms part of the "Introduction to 4GLs and Access 2007 development" topic in the Rapid Application Development module.
Uniform convergence and pointwise convergence
The aim of this material is to introduce the student to two notions of convergence for sequences of real-valued functions. The notion of pointwise convergence is relatively straightforward, but the notion of uniform convergence is more subtle. Uniform convergence is explained in terms of closed function balls and the new notion of sets absorbing sequences. The differences between the two types of convergence are illustrated with several examples. Some standard facts are also discussed: a uniform

Introduction to modelling for 1st year engineers
These resources cover an introduction to modelling for first year engineering undergraduate. The main focus is on electrical and mechanical systems, but there is also some discussion of dc motors, fluids and heat as well as an introduction to time series modelling. The main emphasis is on why modelling is important and how to go about doing this from first principles (e.g. Kirchhoff's laws, Newton's Laws, etc.). Given the focus is on new students arriving at University, there is no attempt to de
Mini project : digital video editing : presentation transcript
This is a Mini Project presentation about digital video editing. It is part of the 2009/10 BSc (Hons) in Multimedia Technology (course number 2ELE0075) from the University of Hertfordshire. All the mini projects are designed as level two modules of the undergraduate programmes.
This project entails the creation, editing, and encoding of a video sequence with the intention of distribution over a particular digital broadcast platform (e.g. DVB-T or ipTV). This project provides an awareness of c
HST.410J Projects in Microscale Engineering for the Life Sciences (MIT)
This course is a project-based introduction to manipulating and characterizing cells and biological molecules using microfabricated tools. It is designed for first year undergraduate students. In the first half of the term, students perform laboratory exercises designed to introduce (1) the design, manufacture, and use of microfluidic channels, (2) techniques for sorting and manipulating cells and biomolecules, and (3) making quantitative measurements using optical detection and fluorescent labe
14.581 International Economics I (MIT)
This course provides a graduate-level introduction to the field of international trade. It examines the theory of international trade and foreign investment with applications in commercial policy. Topics include gains from trade, Ricardian models of technological differences, Heckscher-Ohlin models of factor endowment differences, intermediate input trade, wage inequality, imperfect competition, firm heterogeneity, multinational firms, international organization of production, dynamics, trade po
Basic Instructions on multiplying decimals.
Teaches basic steps for multiplying decimals. Solves problem (4.2 X 5.9) by removing the decimal and working as a whole number. Once solved, shows how to determine the decimal place in the answer by counting the digits behind the decimal in the original problem. Also shows how to round decimal into a whole number to see if answer is correct. Then shows how to solve a problem with no whole number (0.3 X 0.2). Once answered shows how to add zero to whole the whole number place and how to convert t
