In this unit, learners will develop an understanding of the principles that govern aircraft flight. They will learn about the airflow around a wing and how it creates lift and the principles of stabil
Composites are materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties. The properties of the composite material are determined by the proper
In the manufacturing of products, there are generally three types of processes that are used in order to complete the product. These processes are joining, finishing, and assembly. In this module, we
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is the process of making three-dimensional solid objects from a digital model. The term "3D printing" encompasses a variety of technologies that build objects b
Electrical power distribution and transmission refer to the process of delivering electricity from generating stations to consumers. Power is distributed as alternating current (AC) because it is easi
Power and energy electronics play a critical role in the modern world, converting and managing power to ensure that we have the electricity we need to live and work. Some of the most important applica
Three-phase systems are found in almost all industrial and commercial settings because they offer many advantages over single-phase power systems.
A three-phase system consists of three alternating
Electrical machines convert electrical energy into mechanical energy or vice versa. There are three basic types of electrical machines - the AC generator, the AC motor, and the DC motor.
The AC gen
In this unit, learners will develop an understanding of the principles and practices of fabrication processes. They will learn how to use various tools and equipment to fabricate products from sheet m
In computer numerical control (CNC) machining, objects are created by using a cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece. This process can be used to create parts with high accuracy and repeatab
