  • Automated Rapid Manufacturing Feedback for Design Considering Advanced Joining Processes

    Creator:
    Chan, Rothanak
    Abstract:
    As manufacturing advancements continue to develop, designers must be able to consider these technologies during the design process. Unfortunately, many of these new technologies, such as additive and advanced joining, have many nuances that require expert knowledge to effectively apply. Additionally, new design techniques, such as topology optimization, allow users...

  • Optimization Across Decomposition : A Multiagent Model of Collaboration in Decomposed System Design

    Creator:
    Hulse, Daniel E.
    Abstract:
    Complex engineered systems design is a collaborative activity. To design a system, experts from the relevant disciplines must work together to create the best overall system from their individual components. This situation is analogous to a multiagent system in which agents solve individual parts of a larger problem. Current multiagent...

  • The Structural Characteristics of Robustness in Large-Scale Complex Engineered Systems

    Creator:
    Walsh, Hannah S.
    Abstract:
    Modern engineered systems are increasingly integrated into society, decentralized, and interconnected. However, scale and complexity create unique challenges in system design, such as emergent behavior and unintended consequences. This work investigates the structural characteristics of robustness in complex engineered systems by identifying patterns of under-recognized vulnerabilities at various levels of...

  • Fatigue Testing and Analysis of Polymer and Composite Materials Used in Heavy-Duty Trucks

    Creator:
    Gahan, Kevan
    Abstract:
    As structural durability analysis is increasingly trusted during the design processes of the automotive industry, more complete and sophisticated modeling of material behavior under both static and dynamic loading conditions is paramount. This is especially true regarding the application of heavy-duty trucks, where modern designs contain large parts such as...

  • A Full-Scale Experimental Investigation of the Bearing Performance of Aggregate Pier-Supported Shallow Foundations

    Creator:
    Martin, John P.
    Abstract:
    Aggregate piers have been used for centuries, with increasing occurrence in the last few decades. Their usage has been driven by land development demand and enabled through equipment and engineering improvements. Understanding the principles controlling bearing capacities and serviceability performance has been an ongoing area of interest for structures supported...
