Biochemical Pathways and Metabolic Engineering

Hydronic Heating Systems

The Hydronic Heating Systems Simulation trains students on hydronic heating systems, which use water to distribute heat throughout a building. Students can practice virtually installing and troubleshooting systems that include boilers, radiators, and piping systems. Interactive exercises focus on adjusting water flow rates, pressure settings, and temperature control for radiant heating. Real-time feedback is provided on system balance, heat distribution, and energy efficiency.

Mechanics of Solids (Stress and Strain Analysis)

This XR simulation trains students to analyze stress and strain in solid objects subjected to various loading conditions. Virtual scenarios allow students to test mechanical components under tensile, compressive, shear, and torsional loads. Interactive lessons focus on calculating stress concentration factors, deflections, and material deformation, providing essential insights into the behavior of materials under stress. Students receive feedback on structural integrity, safety factors, and failure analysis to ensure optimal design and material selection.

Transmission Line and Antenna Design

The Transmission Line and Antenna Design module teaches students the fundamentals of transmission line theory and antenna design principles for communication systems. Through virtual simulations, students design, analyze, and optimize transmission lines and antennas, focusing on performance and efficiency.

Vehicle Diagnostics and Maintenance

Vehicle Diagnostics and Maintenance focuses on vehicle diagnostics, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance procedures. Students will use virtual diagnostic tools to identify issues in various vehicle systems, including the engine, transmission, electrical systems, and brakes. They will also learn how to use OBD-II scanners to read error codes, perform repairs, and apply preventative maintenance strategies.
