Industrial usage of Product Lifecycle Management software has enabled engineers to design, analyze, and manage products from conception to retirement. PLM software is currently used in the aerospace, automotive, chemical and petroleum, and electronics industries. With the increased use of PLM software product development has become more streamlined and requires engineers to be proficient with these new tools. Additionally, the increased development and usage of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) has created a need for engineers to have some knowledge of such devices. Since PLM has been successful in other industries there is no reason that the same success cannot be anticipated in the MEMS industry. Currently PLM software has no specific tools for MEMS simulation, but the design and management tools can be used in conjunction with specific MEMS analysis software. In a university setting with an integrated PLM curriculum, the addition of some basic MEMS examples would expose students to MEMS devices and practices. Specialized MEMS software would not be necessary as the MEMS device models could be scaled so that analysis is possible using tools within the PLM system. Students could then compare their simulation results with both published experimental results and with theory taught in the curriculum. We present a series of case studies including a micro beam frequency response and a micro gear train analysis, giving students a basic understanding of MEMS applications and how PLM can be applied to the MEMS industry.

... All companies, and even students, may need to commit to mastering distributed design tools, especially in the context of globalization and business process outsourcing. 1 Based on these points, the research question of this paper is: As engineering educators, what is the most efficient way to train our students to collaborative distributed design?. In the case of education for distributed mechanical engineering, the available free tools are most of the time easy to master and are widely broadcast on multimedia platforms. ...
