Course overview and objectives:
This is a design-driven course with emphasis placed on skills such as: team-working,
communication skills (graphical, oral, and written), and computer-aided design and
analysis tools. The course will introduce students to the engineering approach to
problem solving with strong references to basic science and math skills, as well as
testing and evaluating design ideas by building prototypes. The design projects are the
total of at least 30 hours of in-class work (one third of the course). Two design projects
will be assigned during the semester. The design projects will require the students to
work in a team. The course grade for the students will reflect their abilities to function
effectively as team players.
Skills acquired by students during the course:
Computing: Solid Modeling/CAD, EXCEL (spreadsheet), PowerPoint (multimedia
presentation)
Internet Designing and publishing a basic webpage
6
Skills:
Graphics: Sketching, orthographic projections, multiview drawings, scales, dimensioning,
isometric pictorial, oblique pictorial, sections, working drawings
Lab Skills: experimental methods, data acquisition & analysis, prototype building & testing
Design
Methods:
customer needs assessment, concept generation, design selection matrices,
design for assembly- disassembly, safety, cost effectiveness, teamwork, and
other constraints as need by the project
EDSGN 100 Class policy
The following are some ground rules to help us maintain a steady progress
through the semester:
1. Assignments are due at the start of the class period before the lecture begins.
Assignments submitted after this time will receive a 20% deduction. A further
20% reduction will be applied for every week beyond the first.
2. The instructor will discuss any exam or assignment grade within 48 hours
(excluding weekends and holidays) of its return, after which time the discussion
is closed.
3. Excellent teamwork can improve the course grade by as much as 4% (2% per
design project). Poor team work will lower your grade by the same amount.
4. Punctual attendance is mandatory for all the class periods. Course grade will be
dropped to the next lower grade for every two classes missed. All excused
absences must be supported by written documentation, such as doctor's
receipt, Penn State athletics travel notice, ROTC notice, etc.
5. No makeup labs will be available for the Design sessions since this is unique to
this section.
6. No cell phone including text message is permitted in the classroom.
7. Students are responsible for any missed handout and homework assignment for
any unexcused missed class.
7
8. Students must use Penn State access account email address when he/she emails
the instructor.
Academic Integrity:
Senate Policy 49-20 Academic Integrity
Definition and expectations: Academic integrity is the pursuit of scholarly activity
in an open, honest and responsible manner. Academic integrity is a basic guiding
principle for all academic activity at The Pennsylvania State University, and all
members of the University community are expected to act in accordance with this
principle. Consistent with this expectation, the University's Code of Conduct states
that all students should act with personal integrity, respect other students' dignity,
rights and property, and help create and maintain an environment in which all can
succeed through the fruits of their efforts.
Academic integrity includes a commitment not to engage in or tolerate acts of
falsification, misrepresentation or deception. Such acts of dishonesty violate the
fundamental ethical principles of the University community and compromise the
worth of work completed by others.
The Penn State Principles:
1. I will respect the dignity of all individuals within the Penn State community; 2. I will practice academic integrity; 3. I will demonstrate social and personal responsibility; 4. I will be responsible for my own academic progress and agree to comply with all University
policies.

Design Features
Dough Machine
Mixing bowl with revolving bottom for easy transition of dough to conveyor. Rolling pins and rotating cutter to section dough into flat circles. Conveyor belt starts and stops at the push of a button. Removable mixing bowl and rolling cutters for easy cleaning of individual parts and
conveyor belt. All removable pieces are machine washable and allow for easier cleaning of conveyor
belt.
Dumpling Machine
Conveyor belt starts at the push of a button and stops automatically in the correct position.
Large filling dispenser that holds up to 2 Liters of filling. Removable filling dispenser for general ease of use. Water spritzer to allow for use of store bought dough rounds, in addition to homemade
ones. Water spritzer is removable for easy filling. All removable parts are machine washable allow for easier cleaning of conveyor belt and
clamps.
Production rate of approximately 12 dumplings per minute

3D Solid Model
Assembly Drawing (Wind Flaps)
This is the only assembly drawing because the solar panels and transition windows do not need
assembly drawings.
14
*There are no detail drawings for this project because each part must be scaled to fit a car. The
size of the solar panels depends on the surface area of the car and the window flaps depend on
the contours and lengths of the car body. The transition windows are simply a chemical that is
added to the car’s windows, and therefor does not have any mechanical parts.
Design Features
The window Flaps.
After reaching a pre-determined speed the flaps will deploy diverting wind away from
the windows reducing drag and becoming more fuel-efficient.
The flaps will allow the passengers to have their windows down and circulate air
Transition Lens.
The design is that when the sun hits the windows of the car the chemicals will convert
into a darker shade.
When they return to an area that’s less lit up the chemicals will have less light hitting
them and the color of the windshield wouldn’t be as dark.
Solar panels.
The solar panels will be part of the cars exterior frame.
Converting light energy into battery power.
The energy would be used in the car and as part of its power source.

Summary
In summary, in EDSGN 100 I have completed projects and learned how to use
Solidworks by completing tutorials and various other assignments. The projects I completed
were group projects that required us to use a standard engineering design process to make the
best possible prototype. In the beginning of the course, I also learned the fundamentals of
drafting by hand and built upon that knowledge when using Solidworks. Overall, this class
offers a lot projects and assignments which allow students to learn important information that
all future engineers should know.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Engineering Design 100 has given me a plethora of valuable knowledge
that I believe will continue to be an asset to me throughout the remainder of my schooling and
into any engineering career. Proficiency in any CAD software is a valuable asset in today’s
technology saturated world and I feel that I am a step ahead of others who do not have any
experience with CAD software. Also, I have gained a lot of knowledge about the engineering
process and how it relates to making a safe and quality product. Overall, I feel that EDSGN 100
has taught me basic, yet very valuable real world information about what being an engineer is
actually like and what engineering jobs entail.
