Reverse engineering, modeling, and redesign of a vibratory conveyor

Creator:

Foglesong, Timothy J.

Abstract:

Some successful products are still developed and produced without the benefit of modern design techniques. One such product is a vibratory conveyor that has been developed largely through prototype iteration. The manufacturer has collaborated with Oregon State University to introduce model-based design into the development process. This research details a...

Ontologies to Support Repeatable and Valid Customer Requirements Generation

Creator:

Lemke, Mark T.

Abstract:

Due to the growing complexity, sophistication, and interconnectedness of present day engineered products and services, the use of ontologies in engineering design is becoming more widespread. An ontology provides a standardized way of describing concepts in a domain of interest and the relationships between these concepts to better understand the...

Bio-Inspired Design of Vehicles that Operate in Complex Environments

Creator:

Jackson, Danielle M.

Abstract:

This dissertation focuses on defining underlying mechanisms to enable the bio-inspired design of aerodynamic and/or hydrodynamic vehicles that operate within complex environments. This dissertation introduces four overarching research gaps found in current bio-inspired design research and four corresponding approach questions that guide the framework of the presented research. This research...
