  • Investigation of Destratification in Warehouses

    Creator:
    Polander, Michael D.
    Abstract:
    A significant source of energy consumption comes from maintaining desired indoor environment conditions in warehouses and other industrial facilities. In efforts to combat the raising energy costs, studies into more efficient heating and cooling strategies has been a topic of consideration for a number of years. One of the areas...

  • Applying Multi-Objective Evaluation to Automated Assembly Planning in Early CAD Design Stage

    Creator:
    Huang, Weifeng
    Abstract:
    Successfully predicting an accurate estimated cost is important in the assembly planning process. When designing an assembly plan, an accurate estimation ensures that the proposed plan can be achieved within the predetermined budget. However, achieving an accurate prediction is a challenge since it requires professional judgment, which is dependent upon...

  • Exploring the Consistency of Terminology used in Performance Measurement & Management

    Creator:
    Jacobsen, Malaia P.
    Abstract:
    Performance measurement and management (PMM) are functions used in many organizations to monitor and manage the activities of an organization. Although these functions are widely understood and applied across many types of industries and within a variety of contexts, there is no standardized terminology due to the multidisciplinary nature of...

  • Direct 3D Printing of Silicone Elastomer Soft Robots without Support

    Creator:
    Morrow, John F.
    Abstract:
    Soft robotics utilizes compliant materials (such as rubber) to make robots that are flexible and safe around humans, however these materials present many practical manufacturing challenges. Current fabrication methods use molding techniques which limits the soft robot designs which could be fabricated and impacts part consistency. This defense introduces a...

  • Manufacturing Process Design and Electrically-Assisted Embossing of a Microchannel Solar Receiver

    Creator:
    McNeff, Patrick S.
    Abstract:
    Manufacturing process design (MPD) represents a design-oriented approach to manufacturing engineering. In this dissertation, Haynes 230 (H230), a solid solution-strengthened Ni-based superalloy, was chosen to meet the material requirements of a microchannel solar receiver (MSR) needed to increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of solar thermal power generation. An...
