Projects

Reliability and Quality Control

Health Services Reliability Study

Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control (DMAIC) applied to customer services for a clinic

Data was gathered from customer services surveys over a 13 month time period

Process Analysis

Create block diagrams of process

Create fault tree analysis

Failure modes, and effect analysis (FMEA)

Breaking down system processes by function and location for the subsystems

Data Analysis

Number of samples vs. number of possible responses

Computing sample sizes required for moving population sizes for each month with 95 percent confidence interval

P-Chart analysis using Minitab software, looking data that falls outside allowed error

ANOVA analysis to determine the statistical difference for month to month analysis

Improve Process

Data collection recommendations

Actions recommended to improve where failures were found Aerodynamics

Airfoil Surface Condition Study

Designed and implanted two unique surface conditions to two different NACA 4412 airfoils in Solidworks

Dimples, shallow and evenly patterned across from leading edge to thickest point of chord

Ridges to induce vortices that increase in height the further down the chord starting at thickest point in the chord to trailing edge

Tested 3D printed models in a wind tunnel

Calculated drag, lift, drag coefficient, lift coefficient and compared to control of standard NACA 4412 airfoil, and compared drag and lift coefficients to the accepted values Senior Design I & II

Collapsible Fishing Net

Design new innovative product not present in market from idea to product

Net reduces in width by net arms pivoting on a rack an pinion system that is spring loaded and opens with a button and locks once open

Narrowed from three concepts to one

Adherence to chosen specifications

Create parts in Solidworks

Material Selection

Tolerance limits

Analyze loads, FEA

Machine Parts

Assemble

Test

Ensuring net operates as designed

Holds up to forces due to normal operation

Corrosion and detergent resistant

Create Theory of Operation and service manual

Bill of Materials, Scheduling

Mechanical Engineering Laboratory

Cantilever Beam Experiment

Determine the harmonic response of a cantilever beam given an initial deflection with different masses at the end

Measurements recorded using an Arduino accelerometer and strain gage through LabVIEW

Graphs of displacement vs time were created using both methods for each of the three weights

Damping ratio was computed for each measurement system for the same weight and compared against each other

ANOVA and t-test were run on the data recorded to determine if the dampening ratios reordered for each sample were statistically similar and to determine outliers respectively
