In EME 185 it didn't seem many people had a feel for modeling, i.e. looking at a real mechanical structure, thinking about what simple elements can be used to describe it and what loads/constraints are there. We need to provide students with more examples of doing this. Right now I have too many elements, but few of them are real.
