Exploring experimental test stand design and operation within a system reliability research methodology

Creator:

Koopmans, Michael, 1986-

Abstract:

In cases where complex systems routinely experience extreme operating conditions, preventative maintenance is often employed to guard against system failure. Yet, with accessible real-time data and the standard practice becoming prohibitively expensive, the test stand can serve as a vital contributor to the development of system health and reliability estimations....

Development of a singulation device for stonefly larva

Creator:

Williams, Kate S. (Kate Shreeve)

Abstract:

Population counts of aquatic insects can be a credible indicator of the overall health of a waterway. Stonefly (Plecoptera) larva are very sensitive to chemicals present within the waterway, however obtaining population counts of the larvae can be very labor intensive and thus costly. The BugID project has been working...

The geometric characterization and thermal performance of a microchannel heat exchanger for diesel engine waste heat recovery

Creator:

Yih, James S.

Abstract:

Rising energy demands and the continual push to find more energy efficient technologies have been the impetus for the investigation of waste heat recovery techniques. Diesel engine exhaust heat utilization has the potential to significantly reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and reduce the release of greenhouse gases, because diesel...

Design and testing of an integrated wildlife-wind turbine interactions detection system

Creator:

Flowers, Jeremy Matthew

Abstract:

Bird and bat mortalities caused by interactions with wind turbines is a critical concern that requires addressing for conservation purposes. Deploying a low cost sensor array will be instrumental during site permitting, conducting impact assessments of existing wind farms, and assessing efficacy of wildlife mortality mitigation or wildlife deterrent technologies....

Design of a mechanically assisted dependent transfer mechanism for use on board commercial aircraft

Creator:

Gibson, Brenton D.

Abstract:

Business and recreation in the modern day world often include air travel as their cornerstone. Travelers who are disabled and wheelchair bound have to undergo a transfer process to board and deplane a commercial aircraft. This transfer process is typically done manually, with agents physically lifting the passenger who is...

Designing a passenger lift and transfer device using 3D modeling and kinematic simulation techniques

Creator:

Koshti, Sushim

Abstract:

Transportation plays such an important role in daily living that, without it, a person might be totally homebound. The nation’s air travel system for persons with disabilities is an area of substantial dissatisfaction, with both passengers and the airline industry recognizing the need for improvement. One of the major concerns...

Identifying customer requirements and designing for modularity in developing specialized, low production volume products

Creator:

van Tamelen, Peter G.

Abstract:

Field biologists are in need of more specialized and technical equipment than they are able to produce on their own in order to collect data more efficiently or gather data that is not currently available. This presents a challenge for design engineers because these products are typically highly specialized and...

Modeling and development of fabrication method for embedding membrane based microvalve in bulk microfluidic device

Creator:

Abhinkar, Bindiya S.

Abstract:

PDMS membrane-based microvalves are becoming increasingly more important for the control of fluid flow within MECS applications such as microreactors used to synthesize nanoparticles and biological macromolecules. The motivation for pursuing PDMS membrane-based microvalves is for implementing a plug flow microreactor to simulate slug flow yielding a narrower residence time...

Force Prediction in the Compression Sealing of an Ultra-thin Elastoviscoplastic Membrane

Creator:

McNeff, Patrick Scot

Abstract:

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate a method for mechanically characterizing a 25 μm thick elastoviscoplastic hemodialysis membrane and for quantifying the force required to use that membrane in compression sealing. First, methods are developed for mechanically characterizing the thin elastoviscoplastic membrane. Then, a finite element model is...

Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters : Investigating Control Strategies and the Deployment of a Scaled Generic Prototype

Creator:

Boren, Blake C.

Abstract:

Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters (VAPWECs) are thought to be both effective and robust at converting ocean wave energy into usable electricity. Seeking to build upon and investigate such potential, this work examines the merits of actively controlling a generic VAPWEC's pendulum for the purpose of increasing the converter's...
