3D Modeling in Elementary Schools and its Use in Testing Creativity | Book Publisher International

Creative thinking is the key to adapting new technologies to serve human needs. Creative thinking is essential in education because it prepares students for a rapidly changing world full of complex problems and new challenges. It develops the ability to think critically, seek innovative solutions and adapt to change. It is very important for education today that modern technologies are used in a creative way.

The present publication addresses the issue of implementing 3D modelling into primary school teaching. First, the reader is introduced to the basic concepts, then to the 3D modelling technologies of SketchUp. Based on the needs of contemporary education, a brief methodology for teaching 3D modelling is presented, on which pilot and primary research is then based. Due to the lack of a standardized tool for evaluating 3D models, a modification of the Urban Figural Test of Creative Thinking, which was originally designed to evaluate paper-based drawings, was undertaken. The reader will also find the results of verifying this modified creative thinking test in practice in the publication.

In a school setting, creative thinking increases student motivation and engagement by allowing them to actively participate in the learning process, which is why it is so important.

Mathematical Modeling and Optimal Control of Sintering Processes in Rotary Tubular Kilns | Chapter 7 | Recent Developments in Engineering Research Vol. 7

 Within a rotary tubular kiln and in the lining of the oven, we consider methods for modelling the temperature fields. These models are used to build a control system that supports the technical parameters required and reduces heat loss to the environment through the kiln body. The application of a one-dimensional model to these processes is verified by two-dimensional modelling of the processes within the kiln. Using the ANSYS Fluent software kit, a simulation method for choosing a new design for the thermal insulation components, ensuring the reduction of heat loss to the atmosphere and performing the necessary thermal processing is implemented. It proposes a new type of insulation feature that reduces the heat loss from the kiln to the atmosphere and reduces the temperature of the kiln's outer surface. A system is built for monitoring the condition of the lining using a thermal imager and a control system that ensures the lining quality without stopping the operation of the kiln. The developed mathematical model of petroleum coke calcination for enhanced coke production describes chemical transformations with adequate adequacy through weight loss of the charge in the selected rotary tubular kiln. It can be used with the use of nonlinear mathematical methods of programming for optimising an industrial operation.
