  • Recreating Agnes Ericksen's 1954-1956 Fashion Designs

    Creator:
    Roth, Anna M.
    Abstract:
    In the years from 1954 to 1956 Agnes Eriksen filled three fashion sketchbooks that contained ⅛ scale patterns, fabric swatches, and styling notations for eighteen garments. I plan to recreate and sew together Agnes Eriksen’s fashion designs into a small snapshot of these three years. The 1950s is a particularly...

  • Investigating a Universal Prosthetic Design Process

    Creator:
    Martinez, Maria de los Angeles
    Abstract:
    In current prosthetic practices, the design process heavily relies on the prosthetist’s expertise and the limited methods to quantify design choices. This thesis investigates the lower-limb prosthetic fitting process and the importance of the socket design. Previous research has taken local stiffness of the limb to provide prosthetists with more...

  • Perceptual thresholds for foot slipping in animated characters

    Creator:
    Strawn, Jordan J.
    Abstract:
    The computer game industry continues to progress toward realistic-looking character motion. However, even in state-of-the-art games, the use of motion capture data in character animation may result in errors such as “foot slipping,” where the feet do not match up with the floor properly during translation. Various algorithms have been...

  • The Effectiveness of cTRAIN Computer-Based Programs in Occupational Psychology and its Sociological Implications

    Creator:
    McNamara, Allison
    Abstract:
    Pesticides can often be toxic and for this reason their methods and quantities of application are extremely regulated. Pesticide applicators are at risk of permanently damaging their health from exposure to pesticides. In order to ensure that these employees have the proper information to protect themselves, they are required to...

  • Digital Co-Creation: An Early Stage Product Personalization Methodology to Bridge the User-Designer Void

    Creator:
    Slama, Timothy J.
    Abstract:
    Modern product development is a complex combination of multidisciplinary processes ranging from market research to design, engineering analysis, and logistics. The product development process has a significant impact on the success or failure of new product launches. The majority of consumer product launches fail, resulting in significant sunk cost in...

  • Design cycle models and knowledge management systems

    Creator:
    Popham, Kinsey
    Abstract:
    This thesis explores the relationship between design cycle models and knowledge management systems applied to various physical prototypes that the author developed from 2020 to 2023. The author walks through the process of prototyping a potty-training device in OSU’s Prototype Development Lab and an automated testing fixture for her Senior...

  • Preserving the Planar Dynamics of a CompliantBipedal Robot with a Yaw-Stabilizing Foot Design

    Creator:
    Abate, Andrew M.
    Abstract:
    The ATRIAS agile humanoid robot, along with a number of other spring-mass walking machines, currently have two instabilities: one resulting from inertial forces on the torso which cause the robot to spin like a top, and another resulting from stiff ground collisions which cause chattering of the point-contact toes. This...

  • Safety Audits: A Comparison of Traditional Safety Audits to the Interactive Highway Safety Design Model

    Creator:
    Houghton, Tegan Marie
    Abstract:
    In the United States there are currently two different options for providing safety audits to roadway projects. Traditional audits can be conducted using procedures similar to those in the United Kingdom, or those similar to Australia and New Zealand (Austroads). Another option for conducting safety audits is to use the...

  • A Graphical Method of Computing Offset Curves

    Creator:
    Weiss, Benjamin M.
    Abstract:
    Computation of offset curves is an operation critical to many computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) applications. Though simple on the surface, differences between the straightforward mathematical definition and the demands of CAD/CAM environment in the formulation and expression of an offset curve create a problem for which only complicated, approximate...

    Abstract:
    As global population and affluence continues to rise, demand for and disposal of consumer products is increasing. Currently, there are established process that guide designers to develop innovative products, but these products still have a large impact on the environment. There is beginning to be an emphasis on product sustainability,...
