  3. School of Mechanical Engineering FACULTY OF ENGINEERING • Undergraduate Laboratories at Leeds • Mechanical Engineering taught utilising laboratory sessions. • Enthuse, Motivate and Inspire students. • Lab sessions last 2-3 hours. • 20-30 students. • Several lab sessions needed. • Multiple copies of equipment needed. • Costs limit quality of equipment.

  4. School of Mechanical Engineering FACULTY OF ENGINEERING • ReLOAD – www.reload.leeds.ac.uk • Remote access to experimental equipment • Several dynamics & control laboratories online • ReLOAD in use since 2001 • HEA mini project to enable Submission, Assessment, Feedback and evaluation in 2007

  5. School of Mechanical Engineering FACULTY OF ENGINEERING • Vibration of a cantilever beam • Equipment • Steel cantilever beam. • Strain gauges to record deflection. • Shaker electro-magnetic damper. • Electro magnet initial deflection to the beam. • Web cam to record the motion. • PC with LabVIEW and ReLOAD DAQ software.
