I think Dr. Baker's link changed, I found the link below from the OIT
webpage.  You login with your netid/pass to set up your unix account,
once it is setup you can use the Secure Shell Client to move files to
and from your website area as mentioned in instructions on the course
webpage

I am having a heck of a time with the unix website set up. I went to the
set up by the ut directory and for several days it said the website was
under construction. I went to your website and clicked the button for
terry mull's labs and I get an error message. I have a Mac and tried to
set up everything using the hits on the webpage, but I get a timed out
session everytime. Any suggestions?

Troops: this message is broadcast via "Email the entire group" at the
Communications page of the ME 452w website.  Those receiving it are
confirmed enrolled in this courser.   The login to the website for
accessing secure material is:  username "troops" PW "FE4real"

 

Your first assignment is to go to the website Lab Experiments page, then
touch the "Student Labs" hotword to access the class list.  Touch your
email link and send a message to yourself to confirm that the link is
correct.  After you have setup your public_html area for computer lab
reporting, see below, similarly check that the link works by the
appropriate touch.  Report any difficulties in a broadcast email to the
entire class.

 

Students have experienced problems with RealPlayer not properly
streaming the archived lecture videos.  Using Real11GOLD, others
successfully streamed the videos from the course website with all
features operating.  In select instances, a warning box comes up stating
the video will not load.  Simply touch "OK" and it will appear!   To
make sure this issue does not compromise your ability to "get on board,"
an email will be broadcast shortly that provides the URLs for
downloading the course complete lecture series.  

 

NOTE: I use this Bellsouth email portal for all communications with the
class.    DO NOT reply to it - always use [log in to unmask] for all
course-related communications.   AJB

 

ME 452w lab report setup:

 

The course major inaugural step is to set up your OIT public_html area,
then download the Lab Report Template zip file thereto and unzip it.
Your first lab report is due at class 4 via this modality.  Directions
are detailed at the website PSE page, and the following summarizes the
setup process.  NOTE: all UNIX accounts are controlled by OIT.  If you
encounter problems with your UNIX account, contact the OIT Helpdesk.   

1. If you do not have an OIT UNIX account, then create one as follows:

            a) go to webmail.utk.edu --------> new account registration
tool------>register 

                        for unix account, or click on
(http://accounts.utk.edu/cgi-bin/uact/uact2register.cgi?func=loginform&t
ype=u
<https://tmail.utk.edu/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://accounts.utk.edu
/cgi-bin/uact/uact2register.cgi?func=loginform%26type=u> nix).

2. Use your OIT webmail user id and password to log in and complete the
public_html setup.  The folder will appear usually within about 5
minutes.


3. The procedure for transferring files is explained at the ME452w
website PSE page, or acces this site using the user id and password
given in the first paragraph.

             http://cfdlab.utk.edu/452w/Public/PDFs/SSH_Help_452w.pdf

4.  A graphical presentation of the transfer procedure can be viewed at
the CFD Lab website.

             Go to http://cfdlab.utk.edu <http://cfdlab.utk.edu/>  and
touch "About the UT CFD Lab" in the left hotword column.

     

5. Download the Lab Report template zip file from the PSE page into your
public_html folder, then unzip it to upload your semester's Lab report
file.

\

6. OIT at times issues a user name for your public_html area that is
different from your OIT email username.  If your download is not
viewable at the Lab Assignments page this is a probable cause.  Check
for this difference as your email username is what exists in the webpage
html.  If not identical, notify the instructor. 

 

All Matlab-based computer labs can be executed on your PC after
downloading the FEmPSE toolbox from the website PSE page.  Your access
to COMSOL for the design labs will be provided later.
