6) Reason why you want to take part in the project

The design you created will be your own. It is not necessary to show the design in this website.

Project 2 (13 Oct 2009)

Using your Science and Arts knowledge design a concept of living for families of peoples. The concept or design should fulfil the following requirement:-

- Basic human needs

- The needs to conserve the environment (think about the size of human and other populations and size of our planet)

- Minimum maintenance

- Also suitable for the areas regularly getting earthquake, storm, flood, fire, and any other natural disaster we know of

Project 1 (21 May 2009)

To create a simple to moderately complex mechanism in two dimension that can be designed and planned using entirely of Newtonian Mechanics.

If energy/power input is necessary it must be purely human power. Individuals or small teams are welcome to produce their own answer for the project.

I will act like an external team member to discuss and advise on the process starting from setting goal until close to the final stage.

Purpose

- To be able to design a mechanism which is useful in real life

- To demonstrate a proper way of thinking process using relevant laws and concepts of Newton

- To produce at least hand made diagrams, all steps of reasoning and calculation and proof of success

- If possible to produce physical or virtual model of the final design
