This project incorporates data acquisition systems (DAS) into this         institution's mechanical engineering laboratory.  The DAS systems,              consisting of four individual workstations, are interfaced to already           existing laboratory equipment.  Each workstation consists of a personal         computer, data acquisition interface, printer, plotter and related              software.  This equipment assists students with data acquisition,               computational analysis, and presentation of results for a variety of            laboratory experiments.  Students are freed from tedious manual data            collection and analysis and focus their energies on the interpretation          of results and parameter variations and responses.  Students are                actively involved in the setup of experiments, the interfacing of               transducers, the use of off-the-shelf software, and the development of          software for data presentation and analysis.                                                                                                                         This award is being matched by an equal sum from the grantee.
