What I mean is that you should have slides with exactly these titles, in their order and only talk about the things they list.

First PresentationsAim for 7 minutes of presentation and focus on design and how the design was translated into a prototype


25


You should have no less that 14 PowerPoint slides

The Tyranny of FactsFocus on FactsBut Facts aren’t enough


39


Include context… why the facts matter.

Include context… why the facts matter.

Examples of facts without context:

The lift coefficient is 1.2 which is highThe density of Balsa (or Paulownia) is 160 kg/m3 (or 350 kg/m3)

Pace and SpeedPlan and rehearse your words


42


Talk fast and cover as much ground as you possibly can in 7 minutes

Talk fast and cover as much ground as you possibly can in 7 minutes

Writing & Presentation Issues

I have posted my document on writing “Writing issues for engineers”.

I consider this a work in progress.

There is a “First Draft Check List” in the “Writing issues for engineers” document.

Please use after you finish your first draft is assembled for all documents to be turned in for this class.

There is a separate section of this documents for presentations


• Will the reader or recipient know what it is? Identify your document with a descriptive title and an introductory sentence.

• Your document must have your name, the date, the assignment, and a title.

• Get in the habit of using a premade title pages for MS Word and PowerPoint

• Use mine as a template if you like 73

Issue 1: Information Rich Title Pages


• Make sure that your reader can quickly find the section he or she is looking for.

• If you are covering more then one topic, each topic needs to have a titled section.

74

Issue 2: Separate Different Topics


• Use logical sections and subsections

• Title each so that so that the content is obvious

75

Issues 1&2 Corollary: Sections Titles

76


Issue 2: Will the reader or recipient know what it is?

Identify your document with a descriptive title and an introductory sentence.

77

Color and other embellishments

• Color, you can use color but your document but figures should work in B&W if possible.

• Hyperlinks, you should use them but the web address must appear in a footnote or the reference section.

• Animations, movies and sound files can be helpful but can also be trouble. Be aware that some of your readers will not be able to access them.

Design Support Documents


1) Gantt chart A timeline with milestones, component delivery dates, estimated dates of the

completions of sub-tasks. This can be a separate Excel document.

2) Weight and drag budget A document that lists target, design and as-build weight and location for all components

on the plane. Specifically state what are estimates and what was calculated in SolidWorks and what was measured as-built. Include the coordinates of the CGs for all subsystem. The coordinates must be in a defined, single coordinate system and include a figure that shows the plane, coordinate system and centers. This should be in the main MS Word document.

91



3) Cost budget & parts inventoryA list of all component parts you will include in your plane. You should have links to data sheets. The budget should include all planed expenditures and all money spent by your group related to the project. This is can be a summary of a separate Excel spread sheet. You must save all receipts.

4) Toolbox inventoryA specific list of all tools, bolts and any other hardware with sized. Do not include this in the Excel document. This should be in the main MS Word document.

5) Safety protocolsRead the new School of Engineering Safety document and write a statement that indicates that you have read and will comply with all points of the School of Engineering Safety. This document must be signed by all team members.

Toolbox Please just list what you need to carry to the airfield.

Glue that take overnight to dry is probably not appropriate for that list but cyanoacrylate glue (Superglue) is

Design to Meet ObjectivesThe objectives are requirements and constraints

Requirements and constraints are separate

Requirements: what you are expecting from the full system or subsystem

Constraints: what you are stuck with

They must be specific

147






Landing gear must be strong enough

148






Landing gear must be strong enough

Must remain elastic for 3 f/s vertical fall will transferring less that a 2 g impulse to the fuselage

Requirements and ConstraintsThere MUST be requirements and constraints for the plane itself Every subsystem MUST have bulletined requirements and constraints listed separately

The should have numbers and be specific

Fuselage RequirementsHold: 4 cell battery (based on 6 minute flight)z57 model radio receiver (with link to data sheet)27 lbs payload at plane’s unloaded CG and wing’s CLRemovable wing mount able to transfer 42 lbs from wing to fuselage. Engine mount within ± ½ in of current estimate of plane’s aerodynamic centerTransfer 2 x planes full weight (84 lbs) to landing gear…

Support 2.5 lb horizontal force generated by tail with rudder at full deployment…
