Analysis of the Z-wing configuration (Mechanical Project)
ABSTRACT
This project will analyze the Z-wing configuration. The Z-wing configuration is basically an airplane that has one of the wings placed at the forward section of the fuselage and the other wing placed on the other side far aft at the Continue reading
Peridynamic Models for Fatigue and Fracture in Isotropic and in Polycrystalline Materials (Mechanical Project)
ABSTRACT
To improve design and reliability, extensive efforts has been devoted to understanding damage and failure of materials and structures using numerical simulation, as a complement of theory and experiment. In this thesis, peridynamics is Continue reading
2015 Zips SAE Baja Brakes and Throttle System (Mechanical Project)
The SAE Baja student design team at The University of Akron is one of the longest-standing design teams at the university. The purpose of this team is to design, manufacture, test, and race an off-road vehicle within the Continue reading
Development of an On-line Ride Comfort Evaluation Tool (Mechanical Project)
To produce competitive vehicles, their comfort is one important issue to take into account during the development process. The aim of this study is to develop an on-line comfort evaluation tool in order to improve research and education in the field of Continue reading
Formula SAE Hybrid Carbon Fiber Monocoque / Steel Tube Frame Chassis (Mechanical Project)
The Cal Poly Formula SAE Team created this project in order to design and fabricate a high-performance chassis which would be competitive at 2013 FSAE Lincoln, and to document the process so that future teams could more Continue reading
Thermocline Storage for Concentrated Solar Power (Mechanical Project)
Solar Tower Power Plants with thermal energy storage are a promising technology for dispatchable renewable energy in the near future. Storage integration makes possible to shift the electricity production to more profitable Continue reading
Mechatronics Design of a Low-Cost Packaging and Dosing Machine for Doughy Products (Electronics/Mechanical Project)
The need to improve a packaging system of a company was the idea that impelled the realization of this Continue reading
Instabilities in Pulsating Pipe Flow of Shear-Thinning and Shear-Thickening Fluids (Mechanical Project)
In this study, we have considered the modal and non-modal stability of fluids with shear-dependent viscosity flowing in a rigid straight pipe. A second order finite-difference code is used for the simulation of pipe flow in the cylindrical coordinate system. The Carreau-Yasuda model where the Continue reading
Structural Analysis of a Washing Machine through its Loading Cases (Mechanical Project)
This project is focused in the determination of different loading cases and the application of their results to the optimization of two parts of Continue reading
A Reversible Engineering Process (Mechanical Project)
To study engineering can be difficult, especially transforming theoretical knowledge into practice. To address this issue, Otto and Wood have developed a reverse engineering and redesign methodology, suggesting that it can be used as a tool in the process of Continue reading
Multi-Actuator Switch-Mode Hydraulic System (Mechanical Project)
Current hydraulic systems involving multiple actuators and a single hydraulic power supply generally have poor efficiency. Using throttling valves to control multiple actuators requires meeting the Continue reading
