Statistics - Hypergeometric Distribution

 Hypergeometric distribution is a discrete probability distribution that describes the number of successes in a sequence of n draws from a finite population without replacement, just as the binomial distribution describes the number of successes for draws with replacement.

Here's an example problem number 5.29 retrieved from Scientists and Engineers guide to probability & statistics eighth edition by Walpole, Myers and company.

Differential Equations - Differential Operators [Exercises]

1. Evaluate differential operators.

2. a & b. Solve homogeneous linear differential equations with constant coefficients.

 Quiz 3 is coming so fast. I have a bad news and a good news. The bad news is that the coverage of quiz 3 is too broad, from chapter 9 to chapter 13. Too bad, isn't it? The good news is the copy of slides of chapters 9 & 10 are now available for download! Good? Don't think so. Get it now.

We also have the format for our project. Do good guys!

Project Format

Kinematics - Plate Cam CAD (Plate #5)

 Design a cam, turning counterclockwise, to give a reciprocating follower, slide 4, following motion: rise 4.25 inches with simple harmonic motion during 135 degrees rotation of the cam; rest for 45 degrees; drop 1.25 inches instantly; drop 3 inches with harmonic motion during 120 degrees; remain still for 60 degrees. Oscillating arm AC is 14 inches long and carries a roller .75 inch in diameter running on a journal B, 8 inches from A and on the center line of AC. This roller is actuated by the cam. A connecting link CD, 6 inches in length, joins C to the slide 4 at D. D is below AC. The fixed axis A, of AC, is 6.5 inches to the left and 3 5/8 inches above the axis of rotation of the cam. The center line of travel of D is vertical and 6 inches to the right of the axis of rotation of the cam. AC is to travel equal angular distances above and below the horizontal.


The problem was retrieved from Elements of Mechanism by Doughtie and James, p.480 - L-39.

Economics - Cost Concepts [Lesson 6]

A new chapter to read. We are now halfway to the end of first semester in majoring years. So don't lose your determination, start reading lessons now! This is just the beginning.

Economics - Lesson 5

 Preliminary examinations are now over and we are back on track. We can't stop studying lessons. So now, here is the copy of the presentation of lesson 5 in economics. Good luck on the second half of the sem.

Machine Shop - Machining Hand-out

 The compilation of the hand-out from Ariel's profile is now accessible and ready to be downloaded. I compiled 63 pages in all. I know this would be tough for us but don't lose the determination to finish all of it. I know we can do it. Good luck!

Tomorrow will be the last day of our preliminary examination and I hope that all of us will be happy with the result of the exams. Feel free to click our ads seen on the right sidebar, top header, and bottom part of the site.

Kinematics - Instantaneous Axis (Plate #3)

 Here's my third plate. Like my second plate, it's about Velocity Analysis. I made this plate right after drawing the second one. It took me 2.5 hours to completely finish the plate. I had a hard time drawing it because the instantaneous axis of the links are too far, so I have to use a big compass. Here's the compass used by my classmate while making this plate.

Kinematics - Resolution and Composition (Plate #2)

 My second plate is about Velocity Analysis using the resolution and composition method. Velocity analysis is a graphical technique used for the determination of the velocities of the parts of a mechanical device, specially those of a plane mechanism with rigid component links. It was the first lesson on my Kinematics class and my third plate is also about velocity analysis using the instantaneous axis method.

The drawing itself is not that hard but you need to be very careful in executing the steps. Analyzing the problem is much more difficult. The more complex the linkage are the harder it will be. My second plate isn't that complicated but it took me about 3 hours just to finish this plate and I hope I will get a high grade on it.

Machine Shop Shirt is Here!

UST Mechanical Engineering - Machine Shop

 The long-awaited Machine Shop shirt has finally arrived! Cheers, 3MEA. After waiting for almost half of a semester, we won't be entering the building wearing black shirts with random prints. We are now united as one. I feel like we are just about to start our Machine Shop class when we already finished a project.

May Pasok Ba?

"*Sigh* Is there a class today?"

 Was there an instance happened that you do not know if you should go to school due to inconsistency of hearsays because there is a typhoon? 

"I should have not went to school. There's no class. *:c*."

Did it happen that you went to school knowing that your school announced a late suspension of classes that you didn't have a chance to know?
