Ain Shams University ICHEP - Fall 2024 Faculty of Engineering Scientific Research Prepared by ASUx48 (ByLaw 2023) Dr. M ElBanna  Ain Shams University ICHEP - Fall 2024 Faculty of Engineering Lecture 5 (Chapter 7) "Engineering Tables and Charts (visual Aids) " Presented by Dr. M ElBanna mm.elbanna @eng.asu.edu.eg  What are Visual Aids? Visual aids are nontextual material, that include all devices of graphic presentation of information, like ❑ Tables ❑ Charts ❑ Graphs ❑ Illustrations Diagrams Drawings Photographs Schematics ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 3  Why Using Visual Aids? Highlight important information. Help present your information more effectively. (make your report more easier to understand) Carry much more information per space than the same amount of text can. Give a polished, professional look to your work. ( make your report more attractive) ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 4  Visual Aids In this presentation, we will discuss 1. Tables 2. Graphs & Charts 3. Illustrations ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 5  1. Tables Tables present data (numbers and words) arranged in columns and rows. The function of a Table is to summarize numerical and other statistical data.

Graphs & Charts Graphs and Charts are visual representation of tables. Their function is to show a relationship at a glance. Graphs present data using lines that move up and down from left to right indicating changes in the data across the time. Charts use bars, pie slices, or other means to enable comparisons of data. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 12  2.1 Line Graphs Depict the: 1. Continuous change in data occurring over time. 2. Rate of change of different elements or items.

They strip away extraneous detail and focus on the key objects and actions. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 42  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 1. Add figure and table titles. Figure titles below figures, while table titles above tables. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 43  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 2. Add labels. Add words and pointers to illustrations. Add labels to axes to identify the units of measurement and other details. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 44  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines Steam 3. Indicate source of borrowed Combined Cycle graphics or Hydro & Wind tables. Gas Figure 2 The electrical energy generation mix in 2008 by Egyptian electricity sector.

ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 45  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 4. Include a legend. If your graphs use different symbols, colors, shadings or pattern to indicate different elements, include a legend. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 46  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 5. Intersperse graphics and Tables with text. Insert graphics and Tables into the main text of your document rather than appending them at the end of the document. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 47  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 6. Place graphics and tables at the point of first reference. Position graphics and tables just after the first point in your text where they become relevant. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 48  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 7. Align and position graphics carefully. Maintain adequate spacing between graphics and text: make sure that graphics are nicely balance visually on your pages.

Provide cross-references to your graphics and tables. Refer to your graphics and tables in text, and explain key points. Use phrasing like: a. As can be seen in Figure 5, the thermophysical properties…… b. The arrangements of the MOF network (Fig.8-2) is structured so that ……… c. Averages for the fabric cutting speeds are shown in Table 4 on the next page. ASUx48 @D M EL-Banna Fall 24 51  Graphics and Tables: Guidelines 8.
