Biochemical Pathways and Metabolic Engineering

Conduit Bending and Installation

Master the skills of bending and installing electrical conduit to protect wiring in various settings. Through virtual simulations, students will practice bending rigid and flexible conduit using hand or mechanical benders, measuring, cutting, and installing conduit in walls, ceilings, or underground. Real-time feedback will be provided on the layout, accuracy of bends, and compliance with electrical codes.

Electrical Systems and Control Wiring

The Electrical Systems and Control Wiring Simulation trains users in installing and troubleshooting electrical wiring and control systems in HVAC units. The simulation allows virtual practice with wiring components such as compressors, fans, motors, and thermostats. Interactive scenarios provide troubleshooting experience with common electrical issues like faulty wiring, blown fuses, and tripped breakers. Real-time feedback focuses on wiring accuracy, electrical load, and system functionality.

Interior Design and Ergonomics

This module focuses on designing vehicle interiors with an emphasis on ergonomics, comfort, and user interface. Students will utilize virtual tools to create ergonomic dashboards, seating arrangements, control panels, and infotainment systems. The course includes interactive lessons on optimizing the driver's cabin for accessibility, visibility, and ease of use, with feedback on interior design aesthetics, user comfort, and control layout efficiency.

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.

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.
