ME371
Spring 2015
Projects: There are three projects required as part of ME 371, as detailed below.
Each of the projects will be completed in teams, as assigned. Projects will be
constructed in the engineering shops. All students must complete a shop safety
tour and submit a signed safety rules form to use those facilities.
Project grades will be determined based on instructor and peer grading. Each
member of a team must submit a grade for each of their team members, evaluating
their involvement and contributions to the projects. The grade for an individual
student may be less than or equal to the group project grade.
Project 1: Research the mechanical function of a mechanism and provide:
