    • A finite difference solution for 1-D soil consolidation using Excel 

      McDonald, Blair J.; Brooks, Susan C.; Ravikumar, Prathivadi; McDonald, Trevor W. (Industry, Engineering & Conference Management Systems Conference, 2020-03)
      Terzaghi's one-dimensional (1-D) soil consolidation equation is solved using a finite difference (FD) method and Microsoft's Excel spreadsheet. Spreadsheets are inexpensive computational tools that are readily available ...

    • Study of kinematic and kinetic aspects of mechanisms using tools of CAD solid modelers 

      McDonald, Blair J.; Ravikumar, Prathivadi; Shin, Il-Seop; Zbeeb, Khaled; N., Puneeth (Industry, Engineering & Conference Management Systems Conference, 2020-03)
      In engineering education, the kinematic and kinetic study of mechanisms is a subject that is as challenging to teach as it is to learn. Modern computer aided design (CAD) and solid modeling software, such as SolidWorks, ...
