Abstract

Soma High School has educated students through basic research experience in the field of science and technology in class as a Super Science High school (SSH). The Brunel's atmospheric railway (BAR) is one of the research themes of Soma H.S. The driving system of BAR is simple and the making its model offers the students to interest in and thinking about monodzukuri. The present report describes the detail of the model production, i.e., modeling and designing, selecting materials, fabricating, and testing. The scene, which their model is running speedy with a vacuum cleaner, made a deep impression on the students.
