Design and Performance Evaluation of a Retractable Wingtip Vortex Reduction Device
(2019-12)
As an airfoil achieves lift, the pressure differential at the wingtips trigger the roll up of fluid which results in swirling wakes. This wake is characterized by the presence of strong rotating cylindrical vortices that ...
Investigation of Polyurethane Shape Memory Polymer for Potential Applications in Brain Aneurysm Treatment
(2019-05-10)
Intracranial aneurysms (ICAs) are abnormal deformations in the walls of cranial arteries that can rupture, resulting in hemorrhage and stroke. Modern ICA treatments minimize the risk of rupture by limiting blood flow into ...
Fault Detection and Diagnosis of Air Handling Unit in HVAC System Using Cloud-based Data Logging System
(2019-05-10)
This project encompasses the engineering principles of design and testing of the implementation of a fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) using cloud-based data logging system on Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning ...
Investigation of Turbulence Model Performance in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines
(2019)
Wind turbines are critically important in the quest to move towards a non-renewable energy independent world. With the space to add 5M wind turbines, the United States is at the forefront of this transition. Horizontal ...
