Nicholas O. Awuor; Cathy Weng; Isaac M. Matere; Jeng-Hu Chen; Dani Puspitasari; Khanh Nguyen Phuong Tran – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Engineering drawing is valuable in capturing geometric features, conveying engineering ideas, and creating a blueprint of the intended product. Engineering students usually perform orthographic projections, imagining a 3D situation and sketching its 2D representation. That requires imagination and mental visualization, determined by the learner's…

Méxas, José Geraldo Franco; Bastos Guedes, Karla; da Silva Tavares, Ronaldo – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2014
The representation of figures in mongean projection (double system planned orthographic projection used in the studies of Descriptive Geometry), specially when placed in a particular situation in relation to the projection plans, possesses the quality that, through them, the actual dimensions of represented spatial objects can be found directly…

Marcovitz, Alan B., Ed. – 1977
The method of phase-plane presentation as an educational tool in the study of the dynamic behavior of systems is discussed. In the treatment of nonlinear or piecewise-linear systems, the phase-plane portrait is used to exhibit the nature of singular points, regions of stability, and switching lines to aid comprehension. A technique is described by…

Muller, Mark T.; And Others – 1973
The use of interactive computer graphics for individualized and classroom instruction in Engineering at the University of Texas is described in this document. Two modes of instruction are discussed: (1) student individualized instruction at the terminal, and (2) classroom (group) instruction by a lecturer using time-sharing techniques. The use of…
