Biochemical Pathways and Metabolic Engineering

Lighting Systems Installation and Troubleshooting

Learn how to install and troubleshoot lighting systems, including incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lighting. Through virtual simulations, students will practice installing lighting circuits, switches, and dimmers in both residential and commercial settings. Scenarios will involve troubleshooting common issues such as flickering, burned-out bulbs, or short circuits. Real-time feedback will be provided on energy efficiency, circuit load, and system reliability.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Simulation

Train students to perform stress, strain, and deformation analysis on mechanical components using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) through immersive XR simulations. The virtual environment allows students to apply loads, constraints, and boundary conditions to 3D models of mechanical components, providing interactive lessons on stress distribution, thermal effects, vibration analysis, and material failure points. Feedback is provided on the structural integrity, safety factors, and optimization of mechanical designs to improve understanding and decision-making in engineering design processes.

Vehicle Dynamics and Performance Analysis

Delve into the science of vehicle dynamics with this immersive XR simulation. Students can explore vehicle stability, handling, and ride comfort in various scenarios, analyzing how factors like acceleration, braking, and cornering affect overall vehicle performance. Using virtual simulations, students can test different vehicle configurations, suspension systems, tire mechanics, and aerodynamics to optimize design for real-world conditions.

Health Assessment Across the Lifespan

The Health Assessment Across the Lifespan module provides nursing students with virtual experiences to master comprehensive health assessments for patients of all ages. Through interactive simulations and tutorials, students practice conducting physical examinations, obtaining medical histories and performing head-to-toe assessments while learning to recognize age-specific health variations and develop effective care plans.

Building Automation Systems (BAS) and Smart HVAC

The Building Automation Systems (BAS) and Smart HVAC Simulation equips students with skills in installing and programming BAS to control HVAC systems, lighting, and other building systems in large commercial buildings. Students will engage in virtual scenarios to set up and program BAS systems, optimize energy use, and monitor the indoor climate. Interactive exercises will involve configuring smart thermostats, sensors, and networked devices for automated temperature and airflow control. Real-time feedback will focus on system efficiency, energy consumption, and troubleshooting networked components.
