Utilizing the thermodynamic properties of E85 to increase the specific efficiency of a high specific output single cylinder Formula SAE engine

Creator:: Duncan, Derek N.
Abstract:: Formula SAE is a collegiate engineering competition that has participants from around the globe. Of the 1000 points available throughout the event, 100 (10%) are dedicated to the fuel efficiency of the student built race cars. Competition rules allow either gasoline or E85, a mix of 85% ethanol and 15%...

Evaluation of failure diagnosis in conceptual design of mechanical systems

Creator:: Ruff, David N.
Abstract:: A methodology for improving quality and reducing life cycle costs of mechanical systems is described. The principal concept is that a system can be designed, in the conceptual stages, to be easier to diagnose for failures. To perform this, functional decomposition and form to function mapping are utilized both as...

A Preliminary Methodology For Automating Functional Modeling

Creator:: Edmonds, Katherine N.
Abstract:: This thesis is the combination of two research publications working towards automating functional modeling. Functional modeling is an underutilized yet critical tool for concept generation and product design. Understanding the difficulty both novice and expert designers have in implementing functional modeling in their design process, this research sets out to...

Composite Tools and Optimization in Racecars to Reduce Mass and Design Time

Creator:: Wagoner, Marshall
Abstract:: Designing a carbon fiber chassis for the Global Formula Race car has historically proven to be both time intensive and difficult. The goal of this thesis is to improve the design process for testing Global Formula Racing team's composite chassis sandwich panels. Consideration was taken regarding Formula SAE rules, and...

Performance Evaluation of Air Shocks Implemented in a Formula Student Vehicle

Creator:: Fritz, Tim
Abstract:: The Formula Student Team Global Formula Racing from Oregon State University implemented an air suspension system in their 2017 combustion powered vehicle, mainly to save weight. This thesis covers the performance evaluation of such system by comparison to conventional coil over shocks. Utilizing two different Formula Student style courses, three...

Application of a bayesian network to integrated circuit tester diagnosis

Creator:: Mittelstadt, Daniel Richard
Abstract:: This thesis describes research to implement a Bayesian belief network based expert system to solve a real-world diagnostic problem troubleshooting integrated circuit (IC) testing machines. Several models of the IC tester diagnostic problem were developed in belief networks, and one of these models was implemented using Symbolic Probabilistic Inference (SPI)....

Modeling, simulation, and analysis of two hydraulic power take-off systems for wave energy conversion

Creator:: Casey, Sean (Sean Michael)
Abstract:: Hydraulic power take-off (PTO) systems have been implemented in several wave energy converter (WEC) designs in recent years. Two popular hydraulic PTO configurations coupled to a point absorber hydrodynamic model are simulated in waves representative of an energetic sea state likely to be found in deep waters off the coast...

How personality affects creativity in concept ideation

Creator:: Berthelsdorf, Friederich A.
Abstract:: This thesis uses the manuscript option, and consists of a previously-published paper and a paper that has been accepted for publication. Manuscript One details an independent confirmatory study to Choo et al. (2014), which demonstrated that correlations exist between personality type and the outcome of concept ideation methods. This is...

Practical Application of the Finite Element Method for Vehicle System Loads Analysis

Creator:: Weitzman, Paul M.
Abstract:: This work develops the loads, boundary conditions, and model construction techniques used to create a high-level vehicle analysis model. The loads are derived from the overall performance parameters of the vehicle, which include 3 axis accelerations and aerodynamic forces from Computational Fluid Dynamics outputs. The boundary condition of the analysis...
