A taxonomy is provided for the design of make and test projects as well as a catalogue of technical information about unconventional engineering materials and energy sources. Case studies are included based on the author’s experience of supervising make and test projects for over twenty-five years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is aimed at the engineering educator and all those planning and conducting make and test projects. Up until now, this topic has been dealt with informally. \u003cstrong\u003eMake and Test Projects in Engineering Design\u003c\/strong\u003e is the first book that formalises this important aspect of early learning in engineering design. It will be an invaluable teaching tool and resource for educators in engineering design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-09-17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447161585\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/1-84628-285-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 277\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47407618097292,"sku":"9781447161585","price":134.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447161585.jpg?v=1775832213","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781447161585","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
