  • Tracking of Melt Pool Motion Using Numerical Analysis of Laser Powder Bed Fusion

    Creator:
    Cox, Bryce
    Abstract:
    Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is a process commonly used to create additively manufactured metal parts. The flexibility and complexity allowed by the LPBF process provides opportunity for significant advancement in multiple industries as parts can be customized in shape and function for specific needs. These benefits can be compounded...

  • Foam-Core Meniscus Coating and Diffusion Bonding for Energy Applications

    Creator:
    Saranam, Venkata Rajesh
    Abstract:
    In the second chapter, a foam-core meniscus coating process was developed for retrofitting 100 nm-scale sol-gel anti-reflective coatings onto in-field solar panels through the deposition, evaporation, and curing of wet films.Advantages of this technique include the means to control fluid flow relative to substrate motion and the ability to conform...

  • Effects of atomizing media and post processing on mechanical properties of 17-4 PH stainless steel manufactured via selective laser melting

    Creator:
    Pasebani, Somayeh, Ghayoor, Milad, Badwe, Sunil, Irrinki, Harish, and Atre, Sundar, V.
    Abstract:
    Water-atomized and gas-atomized 17-4 PH stainless steel powder were used as feedstock in selective laser melting process. Gas atomized powder revealed single martensitic phase after printing and heat treatment independent of energy density. As-printed water atomized powder contained dual martensitic and austenitic phase regardless of energy density. The H900 heat...

  • Model Predictive Control of a Phase Change Process for Wastewater Purification Application

    Creator:
    Anderson, Kyle S.
    Abstract:
    In the United States, the oil and gas extraction industry produces large amounts of highly contaminated wastewater that is seldom treated for reuse in other applications. Current wastewater storage and disposal strategies lead to contamination of valuable freshwater resources that can have negative effects on both human communities and the...

  • A tool to support conceptual change : identifying methods to ensure employee satisfaction along Lean implementation

    Creator:
    Grijalva, Paola E.
    Abstract:
    To address several challenges faced in healthcare, the Triple Aim (3A) was targeted by institutions to improve health outcomes and patient experience while reducing the costs of health. Process improvement techniques in manufacturing, such as Lean systems, were applied as tools to achieve the 3A framework. Unfortunately, the high level...

  • Geometric Motion Planning for Inertial Systems

    Creator:
    Faraji, Hossein
    Abstract:
    In order to enable better visualization and understanding of the effect of the robot's geometry and inertia on the robot's trajectories, this dissertation proposes to use geometric mechanics to bridge the gap between the physical motion of a robot and its mathematical structure. The main focus of this research is...

  • Optical sensing for nondestructive structural evaluation and additive manufacturing process monitoring

    Creator:
    Hu, Xiaochen
    Abstract:
    Sensing is a significant engineering science which quantify parameters from the physical world and discover the physics running behind the measurement process. Optical sensing makes use of electromagnetic waves from infrared to ultraviolet on the light spectrum as a medium to measure variables, such as position, temperature and strain. Image...

  • Mechanical engineering design across cultures : a method of designing for cultures

    Creator:
    Van Bossuyt, Douglas L.
    Abstract:
    Mechanical design is often based on formal methodologies such as Quality Function Deployment. Techniques to quantitatively account for attractability, sensory perception, and affective design have been successfully incorporated into these methods and are receiving growing acceptance across many industries. Although the adoption of these methods marks a large improvement for...

  • Privacy-Sensitive Robotics

    Creator:
    Rueben, Matthew R.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on personal privacy in human-robot interaction, which we call "privacy-sensitive robotics." Our understanding of "privacy" is very broad, including not just information privacy but also physical, psychological, and social privacy. We begin by surveying the scholarly literature on privacy and talking about why it applies to interactions...

  • 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...
