WPI SCHOOL PROJECT:

Austenite Grain growth and Hardening of 4140 low carbon steel ---2015

Grain growth during heat treatment has a negative effect on mechanical properties, a large grain size can result

in a lower strength and susceptibility to brittle failure. In order to control the prior Austenite grain size, the

effect of austenitizing temperatures and holding times on the grain size and hardness in 4140 steel was

experimentally investigated.

The Synthesis and Property analysis for Polyurethane Foams ---2014

The primary objective of this project is to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of laboratory

synthesized PU foam with different amount of blow agent (water).

Mechanical Properties analysis of a 3-D Printed ASTM Standard Tensile Bar ---2014

The 3D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. After we print this

Solid Work designed tensile bar, we obtained the stress and strain curve of the material after the tensile test, and

the mechanical properties were analyzed.

EquipIt Inc. Rental Portal Business Plan (Hardware Rental) ---2014

EquipIt Rental portal is a cloud- based hub that connects rental business in a centrally integrated platform. The

platform consolidates rental resources in the Worcester MA area making it simple for users to search and

reserve equipment and hardware rentals

Surface Roughness Effect on Static Friction of Aluminum on Carbon Composite ---2013

Carbon-epoxy composites are notoriously “slippery” specimens, often requiring a very tricky contact force to

hold them without damages, in order to find the correlation between a surface parameter and maximum static

friction, a series performance tests between the specimens and the given carbon composite were conducted.
