Titanic Owners Not Worried, Declare Vessel Unsinkable. Using the Purdue library website, find and list (following proper citation rules) a few newspaperĪrticles from 1912 and/or 1913 that mentioned the belief that the Titanic was unsinkable. The ship was originally heralded as an unsinkable The Titanic set sail for the first time on April 10, 1912. Textbook is very useful, there are many, many other comprehensive textbooks available that are related to theīasic classes of materials, including metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. You are first learning about a new material, processing technique, or piece of equipment. Sometimes there is no substitute for a broad, educational textbook on your subject of interest, especially when
Websites will be discussed in this handout. In the MSE library guide, available at /mse. Specific to materials engineering, a number of databases are listed To get started: Many of you are already familiar with the basic structure of the Purdue libraries and their online All of the information “hunting and gathering” toolsĭescribed in this handout are ultimately facilitated through the Purdue libraries. Overview: Within the Purdue libraries, thousands of hard-copy books are supplemented with thousands ofĮlectronic books, databases, journals and other periodicals. Your lab report will be due before the start of your next lab session.

You will then save it as a PDF and submit it via Blackboard using the appropriate assignment link. Before you begin, please take this short survey: purdue.qualtrics/SE/?SID=SV_6gJ3HaRD634TaFDįor Your Lab Report: Every student should submit a lab report for this activity.
May work with a partner during this activity but each student should record their own answers. Each section contains in-lab questions that you will need to answer for your lab report. Included for each of the seven databases or websites listed in the right-hand column of Table 1 (your huntingĪnd gathering tools). In the respective handout sections, descriptions and basic instructions are In this handout on the information sources listed above, starting with the most broad sources (textbooks.) to Instructions: During lab, you will read and work through this lab handout. 5 Research articles, reports Google Scholar, p. 3 Reference Books, E-Databases CHEMnetBASE, p. Type of Information Information Sources Find Sources Via: Very Broad to Very Specific Textbooks, Handbooks Purdue Library, p.
Range of information to sources containing very specific information. Locate specific information sources (middle column), categorized from sources containing a broad Table I: Common websites or databases (li sted in far right column) used by materials engineers to Here, we will introduce you to the most commonly used information sources in materialsĮngineering (see Table I) and teach you how these sources are found, used, and cited. BecauseĮngineering is an advanced field, engineers must use more advanced information sources, going far beyond Is to introduce you to “hunting and gathering” strategies for finding, using, and reporting information. Testing or processing method or finding property and performance values of a given material. In order to be an effective problem solver, an engineer must be able to findĪnd learn the information relevant to solving a given problem, whether that requires looking up a standard Introduction: Today and during the Fracture of metals and ceramics lab, you will be attempting to solve aįamous materials science question: What sank the Titanic? The ability to solve technical problems is one of the Objectives: After completing this laboratory activity and associated report, students will be able to (1) efficientlyįind information by identifying appropriate information sources, (2) effectively use information sources, and (3)Ĭorrectly report and cite the information sources. There are no specific safety and clothing requirements for this lab activity. Please meet in the MSE Computer Lab (ARMS 2114) at your assigned lab session time.
