The Design of Good Work

Creator:: Hattrup, Steven H.
Abstract:: Work occupies a considerable amount of time in most peoples’ lives and can be a source of great pleasure or a source of pain. To enhance peoples’ experience at work, we must first understand how to measure and improve the design of work. This research sought to do just that,...

Chemical Solution Deposition and in-situ Structural Characterization of Pb-free, Bi-based, Piezoelectric Thin Films

Creator:: Fox, Austin J.
Abstract:: This work explores the electric field induced strain mechanisms in environmentally benign Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (BNT) based piezoelectric thin films. Although BNT-based materials show promise as replacements for toxic Pb-based piezoelectrics, the displacement mechanisms are not consistent between thin films and bulk materials, and the differences have yet to be well understood....

Process-based modeling for cradle-to-gate energy and carbon footprint reduction in product design

Creator:: Alsaffar, Ahmed J.
Abstract:: Interest in accounting for environmental impacts of products, processes, and systems during the design phase is increasing. Numerous studies have undertaken investigations for reducing environmental impacts across the product life cycle. Efforts have also been launched to quantify such impacts more accurately. Life cycle energy consumption and carbon footprint are...

Enterprise system implementation projects : a study of the impact of contextual factors on critical success factors

Creator:: Van Scoter, Diane J.
Abstract:: Critical success factors (CSFs) are those things that must be done correctly for a project to be successful; however, CSFs are not sufficient by themselves to guarantee success. CSFs, as identified in the literature, vary from study to study. In addition, previous studies have not typically included contextual details for...

Adhesive Properties Subject to Variation in Temperature, Thickness, and Working Time

Creator:: Aerne, Nicholas, S. J.
Abstract:: Adhesive use is becoming increasingly common in manufacturing processes. The advantage of adhesives are light weight components, non-destructive fastening techniques and distribution of loads over the applied bond region. Modeling the behavior of adhesive bond lines in fastening joints can help in the design process to make an optimized joint,...

The Effect of Isothermal Aging on the Development of Long-Range Order in Ni-based Alloys

Creator:: Aerne, Nicholas S. J.
Abstract:: Nickel (Ni)-based alloys with a high chromium (Cr) content are frequently employed in applications where elevated temperatures and/or corrosive environments are present due to their excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. However, a gap exists around the formation, and kinetics of long-range order (LRO) Ni2Cr phase in both model binary...

Acceleration of Long-Range Ordering in NiCrFe Alloys Via Proton Irradiation

Creator:: Evered, Cole E.
Abstract:: This work explores the hypothesis that proton irradiation is a feasible alternative to simulate accelerated thermal aging for Ni2Cr long-range ordered phase formation within NiCr and NiCrFe alloys. In this study, various model alloys and commercial alloys 690 and 690+P (0.01 wt.% P) were subject to 2 MeV proton irradiation...

Exploring Intuitive Use

Creator:: Cairns, Tylee
Abstract:: The term "Intuitive use" has become a common phrase to describe interfaces and products, however it is rarely defined. Research regarding intuitive use is in its infancy, beginning primarily in 2003. With the development of new terms in Human Factors and Human-Computer Interaction, it is important for Designers and Users...

A proposed framework for increasing the accessibility of systems thinking intervention approaches for non-systems thinking practitioners

Creator:: Solberg, Thomas Roe
Abstract:: Meta-methodologies have been created to assist systems thinking practitioners in selecting applicable intervention approaches for different system states; however, current meta-methodologies do not address the lack of accessibility for non-systems thinking practitioners. To address this problem, the key system states that contribute the most to reduce the variety gap between...

An information modeling framework and desktop application to compose unit manufacturing process models for sustainable manufacturing assessment

Creator:: Smullin, Matteo M.
Abstract:: The demand from consumers for more sustainable products, and the need to comply with government regulations motivates manufacturers to evaluate their operations for opportunities to reduce environmental impact and improve economic competitiveness. Manufacturers have actively improved the sustainability performance of their products through the use of sustainability assessment methods and...
