Experimental and analytical characterization of bidirectional reflectance data for engineering materials

Creator:: Zaworski, Joseph Robert
Abstract:: Bidirectional reflectance is a fundamental property used for the analysis of radiative heat transfer. It is a form of reflectivity in which the spectral and directional dependencies of both the beam incident on a surface and the beam reflected from the surface are specified. A new system has been designed...

Dashboard Effectiveness is More Complex than Key Performance Indicators: Feedback mechanisms are the foundation of dashboard success

Creator:: Beeks, Kameron P.
Abstract:: This thesis serves as a literature review of dashboards that calls for further research in the area of Feedback Mechanisms (FMs). A dashboard, for the purposes of this paper is a display used to provide performance feedback to a user. An FM is the mechanism used in a dashboard to...

Designing a passenger lift and transfer device using 3D modeling and kinematic simulation techniques

Creator:: Koshti, Sushim
Abstract:: Transportation plays such an important role in daily living that, without it, a person might be totally homebound. The nation’s air travel system for persons with disabilities is an area of substantial dissatisfaction, with both passengers and the airline industry recognizing the need for improvement. One of the major concerns...

Comparing and Contrasting the Merits of Additive Manufactured Electric Vehicle Suspension Components: GFR Case Study

Creator:: Peraza-Garcia, Jesus
Abstract:: This thesis compares the implementation of additive manufactured suspension uprights against subtractive manufactured suspension uprights from concept generation, design, and validation through simulation. Additive manufactured suspension uprights were designed for Global Formula Racing’s 2023 electric vehicle. Utilizing Siemens NX, Nastran, Fusion 360, and Ansys Workbench both subtractive and additive manufactured...

International Engineering Interns in their Own Words: Past Interns Share their Stories and their Wisdom with the Future

Creator:: Van Bossuyt, Douglas
Abstract:: Students participating in international engineering internships are still relatively rare. It is commonly held that more engineering students would choose to intern abroad if there were role models available, as there are in other disciplines. Profiles of past students, participants, and Alumni serve as role models to perspective students allows...

A force plate for measuring contact forces during dependent transfers onboard aircraft

Creator:: Schafer, Christopher A.
Abstract:: The transfer of air travelers with disabilities between a mobility aid and an aircraft seat is a major source of injury for both the travelers and the airline personnel assisting in the transfer. The risk to both parties might be reduced through the biomechanical study of the transfer task. Such...

Effect of lateral force on passenger comfort during a mechanically assisteddependent transfer

Creator:: Mast, Jonathan J.
Abstract:: Air travel presents several problems for passengers with disabilities. One in particular is how they get from their wheelchair and to an aircraft seat. The commonly used manual transfer method is hazardous to the assistants and the passenger. There are other alternatives, but they have plenty of room for improvement....

Turning Brake Cylinder Housing

Creator:: Radcliffe, Noah
Abstract:: The purpose of this project is to assist the OSU Baja Racing vehicle in turning more sharply. This is done using a turning brake, which locks one rear wheel to facilitate turning on a smaller radius. This project focuses on the development of a custom cylinder housing for the turning...

Mechanical engineering design across cultures : a method of designing for cultures

Creator:: Van Bossuyt, Douglas L.
Abstract:: Mechanical design is often based on formal methodologies such as Quality Function Deployment. Techniques to quantitatively account for attractability, sensory perception, and affective design have been successfully incorporated into these methods and are receiving growing acceptance across many industries. Although the adoption of these methods marks a large improvement for...

A methodology for iterative design using physical test data

Creator:: Morris, Wesley T.
Abstract:: This thesis addresses a common knowledge gap that was identified amongst the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) competition design teams at Oregon State University. Students that join the SAE teams at Oregon State University typically do not have experience using physically collected data during a design process. This leads to...
