We are a group of engineering students, in our first year of undergraduate study. We have been selected from one thousand first year students and have competed and won the PACE competition. All engineers share a common general first year, but we have been accepted into Civil and Mechanical engineering. This project was assigned as the final project in the Design and Graphics course. The project we are tasked with, called the Cornerstone Design Project, is to first dissect a product, discover how it works, dimension each part and create a fully assembled model using CAD software (Solid Edge V20 in our case). As part of discovering how it works we must benchmark it so the device can be compared with competing products. The goal of the project is to develop a full understanding of part modeling and assembly in Solid Edge, learn proper measurement techniques, and learn the process of reverse engineering and product dissection. All of these tasks were stepping stones to help us fully understand how the device, and all its components, work.

<p>Large cities and urban regions are highly sensitive to impacts caused by extreme events (e.g. heavy rainfall). As problems caused by hazardous atmospheric events are expected to intensify due to the Anthropogenic Climate Change, adequate adaptation planning of urban infrastructure is needed. Planning adaptations not only requires further research on potential impacts under changing climate conditions as a basis, but also a check of the practical feasibility for stakeholders.</p><p>Under the BMBF research program “Urban Climate Under Change” ([UC]²), we relate heavy precipitation events over Berlin to the respective fire brigade operations. Here, the precipitation data are based on temporally high resolved radar data. The fire brigade operation data are available on time and location, but the number of recorded events is small, and their distribution is highly overdispersive compared to a Poisson model. To account for this problem we apply a two part hurdle model with one part modeling the probability of the occurrence of fire brigade operations and one part modeling the actual number of operations given that at least one operation occurs. In the corresponding statistical models the parameters of the distributions are described by additive predictors, which are based on precipitation duration and intensity as well as building density. Based on 10 years of data with a cross validation setup, both the occurrence model and the model for the number of operations significantly outperform the reference climatology for certain areas over Berlin.</p>

Double-column vehicle lift is a lifting equipment commonly used in auto repair and maintenance units, which is widely applied to the repair and maintenance of small vehicles such as cars. The design is a double-column vehicle lift driven by hydraulic. It mainly consists of lifting device, synchronous drive, column and bracket arm. The hydraulic circuit of hydraulic lifting device is designed. Currently, the articles concerning solidworks in the design of hydraulic drive lift only focus on unilateral appliance. When it comes to the design of the system, most of them concentrate on part modeling, virtual assembly, finite element analysis of parts ,etc, or a partial function of certain lifting machine. Seldom of them make a systematic research concerning motion stimulation. This paper, however, makes a three-dimensional virtual modeling for the lifting machine by the use of solidworks. In addition, it makes a structure verification of lift with assembly and motion simulation.
