Bennett, James A. – 1973
A series of graphically-oriented computer-assisted instructional (CAI) lessons in elementary beam theory has been developed for an undergraduate course in solid mechanics. The lessons were implemented on the PLATO CAI system at the University of Illinois; the system included a graphical display unit (CRT) and a CDC 1604 computer. The first phase…

Volz, Richard A.; And Others – 1974
Engineering is coming to rely more and more heavily upon the computer for computations, analyses, and graphic displays which aid the design process. A general purpose simulation system, the Time-shared Automatic Control Laboratory (TACL), and a set of computer-aided design programs, Control Oriented Interactive Graphic Analysis and Design…

Volz, Richard A.; And Others – 1974
The computer is currently a vital tool in engineering analysis and design. With the introduction of moderately priced graphics terminals, it will become even more important in the future as rapid graphic interaction between the engineer and the computer becomes more feasible in computer-aided design (CAD). To provide a vehicle for introducing…

Bailey, F. N.; Kain, R. Y. – 1973
A two-stage project is investigating the educational potential of a low-cost time-sharing system used as a simulation tool in Electrical Engineering (EE) education. Phase I involves a pilot study and Phase II a full integration. The system employs interactive computer simulation to teach engineering concepts which are not well handled by…

Beazley, William G. – 1974
Design theory should identify candidate designers, specify design behavior to be measured, and discriminate between behavior of designers and nondesigners. A study evaluated different formats of computerized structural display and data entry to measure design behavior. A program using graph theory as an internal data structure in the computer and…
