  • Understanding Designer Mental Models to Support Computer Directed Analogical Design

    Creator:
    Arlitt, Ryan M.
    Abstract:
    Analysis of alternative concepts has a significant impact on design project outcomes, and yet many design teams fail to consider a significantly broad range of conceptual solutions. Within the realm of conceptual design exists a technique called design by analogy (DBA) -- the practice of reapplying old solutions to new...

  • Additive Manufacturing of FeCrCoCuNi High Entropy Alloy via Laser Powder Bed Fusion and Nickel Aluminum Bronze via Laser Directed Energy Deposition

    Creator:
    Doyle, Ryan P.
    Abstract:
    High Entropy Alloys (HEA) exhibit unusual properties and are gaining interest as new materials for challenging applications in the aerospace, hypersonic and medical fields. The application of HEAs have been limited by the development of powder production at scale. A recently developed process of plasma spheroidization by 6K, inc. has...

  • Grasping complex casting shapes with an underactuated parallel jaw gripper on an industrial robot

    Creator:
    Carpenter, Ryan Joseph
    Abstract:
    Steel foundries are in great need of automation as current operations involve many hazardous manual tasks. Automating foundry operations is very challenging due to the variety of tasks that must be performed on physical objects that vary significantly in size, shape, and weight. This thesis focuses on robotically automating the...

  • Performance of a thermally activated cooling system and design of a microchannel heat recovery unit

    Creator:
    Seward, Ryan
    Abstract:
    The performance of a combined vapor-compression cycle/ORC is evaluated using waste-heat from a diesel generator. A flat plate microchannel heat exchanger is employed to provide energy exchange between the diesel exhaust stream and an oil loop, which provides energy to a boiler. This study finds an increased diesel duty corresponds...

  • Selecting a Marathon Training Program

    Creator:
    Weismann-Yee, Ryan
    Abstract:
    The marathon is well noted for the extreme stress it applies to the body and mind. The physiological aspects of marathon training were investigated and examined for someone unfamiliar with the field. Several training programs were investigated within a framework provided by the popular Daniels' Running Formula. By the Formula's...

  • Co-design of a Jupyter Notebook for wood stove emissions analysis

    Creator:
    Schofield, Ryan
    Abstract:
    Designs for improved cookstoves aim to decrease the detrimental environmental and health impacts that are associated with traditional biomass cooking practiced by nearly 40% of the global population. Programs to provide improved cookstoves are found worldwide, and regional testing centers support development of these through emissions testing services. Aprovecho Research...

  • Advanced Computational Modeling and Design of Wave Energy and Floating Offshore Wind Energy Technologies

    Creator:
    Mankle, Hannah L.
    Abstract:
    Given the immense energy potential of o shore wind and ocean waves, offshore renewable energy can significantly contribute to the renewable energy landscape. Fixed floating wind is already making strides internationally with increased electricity capacity, while floating offshore wind turbines and marine hydrokinetic (MHK) technology have significant potential that can...

  • 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...

  • Design, modeling, and performance of miniature reciprocating thermocompressor

    Creator:
    Edwards, Michael J.
    Abstract:
    Research in the miniaturization of thermomechanical systems in recent years has proven to be both rewarding and challenging. Micro-scale devices have tremendous technological potential but come with a new set of design problems. One such problem is energy storage. Heat actuated systems, driven primarily by thermal energy, take advantage of...
