  • Expressive Motion in Simple Robotics

    Creator:
    Berger, Jaden E.
    Abstract:
    This thesis follows two studies performed with simple robots. The first follows a robot interacting with eight improvisers to create scenes and perform five isolated gestures (towards, away, sideways, spin, and circle) for interpretation. The second follows a group of three robots performing the same five isolated gestures at two...

  • Internment at Santo Tomas University, a Podcast

    Creator:
    Atwood, Ryan A.
    Abstract:
    The Santo Tomas University Internment Camp Podcast tells the story of a prison camp run by the Japanese in the Philippines during World War Two, told through a scrapbook created by two internees named Frank and Mildred Miles. Consisting of two parts, an academic portion which focuses on the historical...

  • Analysis, testing, and redesign of an environmental control system for an engine dynamometer

    Creator:
    Morris, Taylor H.
    Abstract:
    This project analyzes, tests, and redesigns an environmental control system for Global Formula Racing’s (GFR) dynamometer. It seeks to develop a working system to test GFR’s car engine under air conditions similar to those faced during competition. A model is developed to predict the performance of the environmental control system,...

  • Preliminary Numerical Study of a Condenser Using Fractal-Like Patterned Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Strips

    Creator:
    Lazaroff, Spencer A.
    Abstract:
    Condensers are vital components of power plants and are often one of the most major cost concerns when planning construction. Generally speaking, the surface area required to dissipate the heat generated in the boiler is so great that enormous and expensive structures are necessary. The usage of a hybrid surface...

  • Radiation Emissions from Turbulent Premixed Jet-A/Air Flames Diluted with Combustion Products

    Creator:
    Hoter, Zohar R.
    Abstract:
    Heat flux measurements of radiation emissions from turbulent premixed flames diluted with N 2 and CO 2 were taken to identify sensitivities of radiation heat loss to diluent fraction and species. This work is motivated by the desire to better characterise radiant heat transfer in the presence of combustion products,...

  • The Use of Fractal-Like Bifurcating Flow Channels for Biological Targeted Cooling

    Creator:
    Stottlemyre, Wyatt
    Abstract:
    In the wake of climate change, the risk of heat related illnesses has continuously increased over the past several decades. While thermal management solutions have continued to improve, there is a need for efficient cooling systems that conform with the human body. This study combines the solutions from fractal-like flow...

  • Optimization of Pulsed Laser Deposited Piezoelectric Thin Films for Microelectromechanical Systems

    Creator:
    Kearney, Dylan R.
    Abstract:
    Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is well known to exhibit some of the strongest piezoelectric responses, explaining why it is at the heart of piezoelectric-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) research. The use of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to synthesize PZT offers many advantages over alternative deposition techniques, mainly regarding its ability to...

  • Technological Improvements in Ligation and Suturing Techniques: A Comparison in the Material Strength of Ligating Clips and Suturing Devices

    Creator:
    Robertson, Bria L.
    Abstract:
    Treatment of extrahepatic portosystemic shunts provides many options, including cellophane banding. These cellophane bands are secured with a ligation clip. Weck® offers two forms of these: the stainless steel Hemoclip, and the polymer Hem-o-lok. This in vitro study compares the mechanical strength of these two of types of clips by...

  • Numerical Analysis of Experimental Impacts on Wind Turbine Blades

    Creator:
    Fleiger-Holmes, Kahlan
    Abstract:
    Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable forms of energy in the United States and the world. However, interactions between wind turbines and wildlife have the possibility to injure animals such as birds and bats. Strategies to assess and minimize wind turbine interactions with wildlife are critical for...
