Bullet points are necessary– Just ensure the slides are organized
Avoid using complete sentences, as they become tedious to read, and the more there is to read on the slide, the less the audience will be listening to you.Pay attention to this, you who are now thinking about putting down every word you intend to write.

STL Container Data Structure Comments
deque hybrid allows random access
vector array allows random access
priority_queue
heap-as-array
list doubly linked list use forward_list for a singly linked list
set binary search tree use unordered_set for a hash table
map binary search tree use unordered_map for a hash table

Present data appropriately:– Line up the decimal points; one number equals two spaces– Use an en-dash (–) and not a hyphen (-) for subtraction– Use the same precision

Review of test data indicates conservatism for tile penetration
• The existing SOFI on tile test data used to create Craterwas reviewed along with STS-87 Southwest Research data– Crater overpredicted penetration of tile coating
significantly• Initial penetration to described by normal velocity
– Varies with volume/mass of projectile (e.g., 200ft/sec for3cu. In)
• Significant energy is required for the softer SOFI particleto penetrate the relatively hard tile coating
– Test results do show that it is possible at sufficient massand velocity
• Conversely, once tile is penetrated SOFI can causesignificant damage
– Minor variations in total energy (above penetration level)can cause significant tile damage
– Flight condition is significantly outside of test database• Volume of ramp is 1920cu in vs 3 cu in for test
