Abstract Highly-skilled engineers are needed to reprogram a welding-robot upon new variant or product introduction. This paper addresses the complexity of programming process by proposing and demonstrating theoretical concept “elementary welding operation” (EWO). The EWO is fundamental building block for robot-welding programs containing most data necessary generate program automatically. descr...

As programming has become a common feature of undergraduate mathematics degrees, there been an increasing focus on how to teach and assess the subject mathematicians. The potential benefits e-assessment basic exercises have many parallels with assessment in where tools are widely used: chance give instant feedback students offers opportunity allow work at their own pace, accommodating disparate...
