Development of products toward system based complex structures enforced developers of engineering modeling systems to elaborate capabilities for modeling multidisciplinary systems. Based on previous own research and several relevant recent achievements this paper introduces analysis and modeling results in effects of recently changed engineering on higher education courses. Contributions in this paper...
The new academic year in the Hungarian higher education, from September 2017, has to produce a new curriculum for all departments. These new teaching strategies must be in line with Training and delivering strategies. The expectations are widely ranged, we have to fit the high theoretical expectation requirements for employers, as well as businesses, the so called “Z” generation. These programs are...
One of the most important “tasks” of the technical management's decision making is showing the importance of factors of given part of maintenance engineering. This importance plays a decisive role in the decision of maintenance management. This paper shows the results of our micro experiments conducted as part of a long-term research of Authors.
In architecture, in special tasks of industrial robotics applications, in navigation and control systems of military technology, in solution for manipulation problems of space exploration in many cases we have to deal with definition, measurement of specified points of space. From measurement technology point of view, it is regarded as a classical solution to solve a problem by application of calculation...
People in their 30s-40s are already used to changes and they are open for retraining in order to be more market able. We are not introducing anything new by saying that in today sigh demanding jobs, the schools are not only providing the knowledge necessary to be able to carry out a particular jib, but schools are also responsible for developing skills which will help the students to face and solve...
Explosive welding is a very useful welding technology. In this way it is easy to joint many dissimilar metals. It is known that usually the welding process can cause some modification of the mechanical properties or/and microstructure. Both of them are very important about the welded materials. In this work we tested the modification of metals hardness after the explosion welding process.
One of the main challenges at definition methodology, planning, and configuration of an engineering course is recent dramatic change of engineering methodology at leading industrial industries. Engineering systems are applied to integrate all engineering activities for entire lifecycle of industrial products. At the same time, engineering was tailored to multidisciplinary structure of recent product...
Professor Dr. Antal K. Bejczy, the Hungarian born NASA researcher was one of the key founders the scientific society IEEE RAS (Robotics and Automation Society), which has more than 10.000 members and is part of the well-known, global organization, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE, which now has more than 300,000 members. He worked with the RAS Board of Directors for 14 years...
Professor Dr. Antal K. Bejczy the Hungarian-born scientist, received his master's and doctorate in applied physics in 1963 at the University of Oslo in Norway. After teaching, he began working at the California Institute of Technology in 1966. From 1969 he was working for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California, where he developed the first dynamic model of robotic manipulators...
Development of engineering systems brought great changes in lifecycle modeling of products. These changes widened the area of model definition, made engineering processes more conform to new demands at communication with engineers, enhanced representation of knowledge, and resulted smart functions of product model such as self adaptive characteristic. It is inevitable that development of model based...
Modernization requires high quality teaching, which provides the platform for lifelong learning combining organized training and self-development in person or in a virtual form. The basic function of adult teaching was to supplement the missing theoretical information, however today the tendency has changed. Many people want to have higher qualifications which develops their basic training, others...
Professor Antal K. Bejczy is a Hungarian-born physicist and lead researcher of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He is a professor at the California Institute of Technology, at Washington University in St. Louis and doctor honoris causa at the Óbuda University in Budapest; an internationally recognized expert in robotics and space research. His pioneering research in space robotics largely aided...
Massachusetts's Institute of Technology was the first university to provide web based university and postgraduate courses, in 2002. These courses were available on OpenCourseWare bases, which was open to anyone. The goal for the next 10 years was to provide as many online courses as possible also easily accessible to everyone. While the focus was more on the “e” part of learning, slowly the accent...
Implementation of the new paradigm product lifecycle management (PLM) essentially changed work of engineers. At the same time, engineering with multidisciplinary products demanded PLM. PLM brought experience and expertise based knowledge driven product representation. It integrated huge amount information about product objects, processes, activities, analyses, methodologies, equipment, devices, and...
Implementation of modeling methods and representations then integrating them in increasingly virtual engineering systems provide new possibilities and challenges for product related engineering. Considering the latest developments in lifecycle management of product information, this paper gives analysis of developing methodology in virtual way of engineering. Results of this analysis are utilized...
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in this century. Although its causes are not well known, its increasing prevalence is not likely to be due to genetic factors or underlying biology. One of the important directions of the medical research is to detect the relationship between the clinical laboratory parameters and obesity. This has led to interest in the role of BMI z-score index, although...
Changed engineering activities from conventional methods in descriptive product representations to self adaptive contextual lifecycle configured product models needed continuous and relevant changes of higher education curriculums and programs. Currently, change between old and new generations of industrial engineering technology brings need for teaching of new problem solving process both structurally...
Engineering for products has been changed dramatically. In the leading industries, the conventional way of engineering will be over soon. Engineers define products in large teams including high number of fully integrated subsidiaries in virtual product information environments at leading industries. Virtual engineering systems accumulate knowledge and engineering results for decades of experience...
In the past decade, the development of communication and information representations in IT has demanded a complete rethinking of engineering activities. Quick development changed the work of engineers dramatically. This paper makes an attempt to summarize key characteristics of the changed engineering activities and systems in order to identify demanded changes of higher education course concepts...
Engineering systems include computation intelligence and knowledge representations with dynamically developing theoretical, methodological, and systemic background. This means that the wished case study and project based education of engineers can be extended to theory, methodology, and systemic parts of curriculum. A new requirement is to bring not only originally laboratory hours but also lectures...
