Formal Letter - Introducing "Me"

  Dear Professor Brad,   My name is Jing Dao. I am writing this letter to provide you with a clearer understanding of my life’s journey and to share the goals I want to achieve at the end of this module. Since young, I was fascinated by airplanes and devices surrounding me, questioning my parents about how these machines were made, to the extent of disassembling laptops and phones to understand the mechanical assembly. Subsequently, my parents bought me handbooks on the mechanical parts of daily encountered machinery which sparked my interest and underpinned my engineering journey. Hence, I chose to pursue a diploma in aeronautical and aerospace technology at Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) which further intrigued my interest in mechanical engineering and led me here, the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). Before coming to university, I served in the Singapore Police Force as a ground response officer, responding to emergency calls and helping people in need. We are co...

Design Summary Reader Response - Draft 4 (Final Draft)

 The Economic Times released an article “What are solar light panels and how do they work” (2019) that explained to readers the purpose, application, and features of solar light panels. Solar Panels consist of solar cells that are made from silicon crystals, which are the main semiconductive material used in photovoltaic technology to generate solar power from sunlight. The same article stated that “The solar light panel system comprises of PV modules, electrical connections, mounting hardware, power conditioning equipment and batteries for storing the generated electricity” (2019). Since the system has a small number of components, it can be easily installed in homes, modes of transportation, industrial estates, and streetlights to reduce electricity costs and, indirectly global warming. In addition, solar panels can also be used in a variety of climates and extreme environmental conditions, for example, saltwater environments due to the design (Marsh, 2017). Solar panels usually ...

Design Summary Reader Response of Solar Panels - Draft 2

  The Economic Times released an article “What are solar light panels and how do they work” (2019) explained to the public the purpose, application, and features of solar light panels.

The Economic Times wrote that “The solar light panel system comprises of PV modules, electrical connections, mounting hardware, power conditioning equipment and batteries for storing the generated electricity” (2019). Since the system has a small number of components, it can be easily installed in homes to reduce electricity costs and global warming’s effect (The Economic Times, 2019). In addition to being appropriate use in homes, solar panels can also be used in a variety of climates and extreme environmental conditions, for example, space or saltwater environments due to their design of having a glass and metal frame that s...
