Enhancing Marine Propulsion Efficiency: Design, Simulation, and Testing of a High-Efficiency Toroidal Propeller for Solar Splash Competition People Team Members Claire Grover Role: Simulation Analyst LinkedIn Henry Morgan Role: Designer…

Problem Statement: Design a custom end-effector with tactile feedback which integrates with the Baxter / Sawyer Research robot arm, capable of manipulating YCB Benchmark objects. Existing designs are too expensive…

Women’s Engineering in Life Design, or W.E.L.D, aims to improve outcomes for surgeries commonly undergone by women. We create novel surgical instruments, such as the IllumiCath, that make obstetrics and…

Authors Mentors Mitch Anthamatten and Melodie Lawton ( Department of Chemical Engineering) Abstract The crystallization speed of a polymer can be a limiting step in the production of products. The…

The diffusion of carbon dioxide into Zeolite 13X is evaluated through three methods: a TGA, an AutoChem II, and a PBR coupled with a TCD.

Our new approach uses Major Code, lessening the total codes from 850 to 23. In Major Classification, we used input layer and embedding as well as 2 hidden layers. For Job Title Classification by Major, we used Random Forest to output based on Majority Voting.

Author Mentor Professor Anand Abstract Investors and the public alike are becoming increasingly interested in companies’ Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) policies. Companies that perform well in ESG tend to…

Problem Statement Falls experienced in hospitals are common and dangerous. Patients are at an especially high risk of experiencing a fall during trips to the bathroom [1]. Bladder bioimpedance can…

Team Members Sponsors Patrick Ellsworth Patrick Zinter Abstract Additive manufacturing is an emerging technology that increases the efficiency and lowers the costs of production within the aerospace industry. Companies like…

The Mathematics Department at the University of Rochester requested a ceremonial mace for their department graduation. A way to confer degrees, the mace is a symbol of authority. This mace includes iconography important to the math faculty and undergraduates, and was designed by a team of senior mechanical engineering students from the class of 2024.

The Endotrach team has successfully developed an articulating probe utilizing bioimpedance spectroscopy to verify endotracheal tube placement after intubation.

Author Mentor Katlyn Conway and Professor Griffin Abstract Plug Power’s internal R&D lab lacks the space for full-scale coating and drying equipment. Their current drying process involves a 480 ft/min…
