Single- and multi-functional arrayed microchannel fluidic devices

Creator:

Fisher, Luke W.

Abstract:

Novel fluidic devices that utilize an array of microchannels to achieve their designed purpose are discussed. Examples of devices include: fuel reforming using Microreactors, chip cooling using microchannel heat sinks, and microchannel devices used for biological applications. The devices that have directly contributed to this research include: a microchannel water...

Designing and creating the Oregon State age and disability simulation suit

Creator:

Rahrer, Adam P.

Abstract:

Over 54 million people report having disabilities in the United States. In addition, there are 40.3 million people 65 years and older living in America. As the population continues to live longer and problems with obesity continue to increase, the number of people with limited capabilities will escalate as well....

Framework and Method for Designing Complementarist Interventions to Systemically Address Management Challenges in Small Organizations

Creator:

Moore, Bradley

Abstract:

Small organizations may face several management challenges, such as developing non-centralized management structures, knowledge retention in rapid turnover environments, complex operations, and diverse stakeholder requirements. Many methodologies exist to address such management challenges, including viable system model, knowledge management, and Toyota production system, or lean manufacturing. Each of these methodologies...

Exploring the Effectiveness of Providing Structured Design for the Environment Knowledge during the Conceptual Design Phase

Creator:

Ross, Donovan Arie

Abstract:

The fuzzy front end of engineering design can present a difficult challenge, and as such, recent engineering design research has focused on guiding and influencing the way a designer ideates. Early ideation can be especially difficult when attempting to integrate specific design objectives in product design, called Design for X...

Global distributed design of a Formula SAE race car

Creator:

Carpenter, Trenton J.

Abstract:

Future engineers need to be competitive in today's expanding global industries. They must have capabilities beyond standard engineering practice. In an attempt to develop students capable of working in a globally distributed design and manufacturing environment, Oregon State University (OSU) and Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg Ravensburg (DHBW) have developed a senior...

Uniform residence time in microreactor-assisted solution deposition of CdS thin-films for CIGS photovoltaic cells

Creator:

Hires, Clayton Lamar

Abstract:

Photovoltaic (PV) cells have long been an attractive alternative for the consumption of fossil fuels but current manufacturing practices suffer from poor energy efficiency, large carbon footprints, low material utilization, high processing temperatures and high solvent usage. A critical step in PV production is the deposition of CdS as a...

A microchannel-based thermal management system for hydrogen storage adsorbent beds

Creator:

Steigleder, Leif J.

Abstract:

Hydrogen has been shown to be a promising replacement for fossil fuels for use in light duty vehicles because it is a clean, renewable and plentiful resource with a high gravimetric energy density. However, in order to obtain an acceptable volumetric energy density, densification of the hydrogen is required. Adsorptive...

Sustainable building design framework : an integrated approach

Creator:

Piacenza, Joseph R.

Abstract:

This paper combines two research publications working toward the development of an integrated framework for commercial sustainable building design. Current methodologies utilize a traditional architectural top-down approach to sustainable building design practices that consumes financial and temporal resources early in the design process. By identifying the array mechanical subsystems required...

A Theoretical Framework to Capture Stakeholders' Perspectives for the Design of Collaborative Communication Structures for Specialized Organizations

Creator:

Chongvilaiwan, Tanida

Abstract:

Small business energy analysts often specialize in one aspect of the business. This specialized focus is done by necessity due to scarcity of resources and to maintain a proprietary market niche. However, this specialized focus results in a growth inhibitor due to their lack of ability to address all the...

A framework to model reliability and failures in complex systems during the early engineering design process

Creator:

O'Halloran, Bryan M.

Abstract:

An open area of research in complex systems is to move reliability and failure assessments earlier in the engineering design process. When compared to later design, early decisions are cost effective and have a large impact on the system. Standard methods are limited by the availability of data and often...
