Relevant Course Packages All Course Packages

Electric Vehicle (EV) Technology and Battery Management

Dive into the world of electric vehicle (EV) systems and gain practical expertise in designing and managing critical components, including batteries, motors, and charging systems.

HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing

The HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing Simulation teaches students how to calculate heating and cooling loads and properly size HVAC systems for different buildings. Virtual tools are provided for load calculation, factoring in building insulation, square footage, number of occupants, and climate conditions. Students then engage in interactive scenarios to select the appropriate HVAC equipment based on the calculated loads. Real-time feedback is provided on the accuracy of system sizing, energy efficiency, and overall occupant comfort.

Medical Imaging Techniques

Enhance students' understanding of medical imaging techniques such as MRI, CT, ultrasound, and X-ray through immersive XR simulations. This interactive platform allows students to control virtual imaging equipment, visualize real-time results, and interpret medical images to identify anatomical structures and diagnose conditions effectively.

Thermal Stress Management and Warping Prevention Simulation

The Thermal Stress Management and Warping Prevention Simulation teaches students how to manage thermal stress and prevent material warping during the welding process. It includes virtual scenarios where temperature changes and thermal expansion are monitored while welding. Students engage in exercises to adjust their welding methods, preheat/postheat treatment, or apply clamping techniques to minimize warping. Feedback is given on thermal stress, material distortion, and the effectiveness of preventive measures to ensure high-quality welds.

Renewable Energy Systems (Solar, Wind, and Battery Storage)

The Electromagnetics and Wave Propagation module offers virtual simulations of renewable energy systems, including solar power, wind turbines, and battery storage. Through interactive exercises, students analyze energy conversion efficiency, system design, and grid integration, gaining a deeper understanding of electromagnetic interactions and wave propagation in renewable energy technologies.

Trim Work and Finish Carpentry

The Trim Work and Finish Carpentry Simulation trains students in advanced woodworking techniques such as installing trim, baseboards, crown molding, and other intricate details commonly used in carpentry finishing. Virtual scenarios allow students to practice cutting, fitting, and installing trim and moldings around windows, doors, and walls. The simulation includes tutorials on how to miter corners, join pieces, and securely attach trim using nails or adhesives.
