Evaluate transportation system devices.

Evaluation should be based on system performance, economy, efficiency, and reliability. Evaluation should include the major components of each system (i.e., structural subsystems, control subsystems, propulsion subsystems).

Process/Skill Questions:

• Where should you look for information about a particular product?
• How can material selection affect performance?
• What components of the system provide control?
• How do you evaluate the performance of a control system?
• What outside factors affect control performance?
• How has the development of advanced GPS devices affected control systems?
