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.

Vibration Analysis and Mechanical Resonance

This XR simulation enables students to analyze vibration patterns and mechanical resonance in rotating and reciprocating systems. They will interact with virtual scenarios where they can examine vibration frequencies, amplitudes, and damping within mechanical structures. The simulation guides students through detecting resonance, identifying sources of vibration, and implementing solutions to reduce noise and wear. Real-time feedback will focus on vibration analysis, system stability, and reliability, providing students with the skills to ensure the durability and optimal performance of mechanical systems.

Microcontroller and Embedded Systems Programming

The Microcontroller and Embedded Systems module provides virtual environments (e.g., Arduino, Raspberry Pi) where students can design, simulate, and test embedded systems. Through interactive exercises, students learn to interface sensors, actuators, and communication modules, while writing and debugging code to control devices effectively.

Water Pressure and Flow Simulation

Explore virtual scenarios focused on troubleshooting and maintaining water pressure in plumbing systems. Practice adjusting and measuring water pressure using pressure gauges, and resolve issues like low pressure, water hammer, and excessive pressure. Receive real-time feedback on pressure regulation, system performance, and adherence to plumbing codes.

Grounding and Bonding Simulation

Learn proper grounding and bonding techniques to prevent electrical shock and ensure system safety. Through virtual simulations, students will install grounding rods, wires, and bonding systems for electrical panels, appliances, and equipment. Interactive scenarios will allow testing of grounding systems with virtual testers and multimeters, providing real-time feedback on grounding integrity, system safety, and adherence to NEC standards.

Energy Audits and Efficiency Simulations

Learn how to conduct energy audits and recommend energy-efficient upgrades for electrical systems. In this simulation, students will perform virtual energy audits for homes or businesses, analyzing energy consumption from lighting, HVAC, and appliances. They will then recommend electrical system upgrades, such as LED lighting or energy-efficient appliances. Real-time feedback will be provided on cost savings, energy usage reduction, and the environmental impact of their recommendations.
