Development and Pilot of a Human Motor Control Study Using Haptic Robotics
(2024-05-08)
This thesis details the efforts to develop a novel robotic device capable of being used in lower
extremity motor control research. Chapter 1 covers background information and introduces the
research questions. Chapter 2 ...
Quantifying a Common Inconsistency in RANS-VoF Modeling of Water and Oil Core Annular Flow
(2024-10-04)
Current trends in modeling CAF of oil and water combine the interface capturing method- ology of VoF with the computational savings of a RANS approach. As demonstrated mathematically, this results in an inconsistency in ...
Numerical Modeling of Mixing-Controlled Combustion in Direct-Injected Compression-Ignition Hydrogen Engines
(2024-10-13)
Reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) is critical to addressing climate change. Using low- carbon, or potentially carbon-neutral, fuels can lower GHG emissions. Neat hydrogen direct injected compression ignition (DICI) is ...
CULTURAL CONTEXT IN ENGINEERING DESIGN: EXPLORING THE INFLUENCE OF COMMUNICATION ON DESIGN PRACTICES
(2024-04-29)
Just as engineering designs are made for diverse parts of the world, engineers themselves come from all over and view design through their own cultural lens. Culture impacts how designers perceive themselves, their ...
“HOW CAN I TRUST IT?” EXPLORING THE ROLE OF EXPLANATIONS IN PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE MODELS
(2024-05-10)
Human factors considerations are not being researched enough in the field of Industry 4.0. (Neumann, Winkelhaus, et al. 2021). A lack of user research leads to a risk that technologies will fall into the “innovation pitfall” ...
