  • Defense
  • Environment
  • Health Bio
  • Manufacturing
  • Transportation

Scientists discover the world that exists
engineers create the world that never was.

Research in Mechanical Engineering
33
Mechanical EngineeringAreas of Research
  • Acoustics and Dynamics
  • Automation and Mechatronics
  • Bioengineering
  • Computer Aided Design
  • Fluid Mechanics
  • Heat Transfer, Combustion and Energy Systems
  • Manufacturing
  • Mechanics of Materials
  • Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
  • Tribology

34
Mechanical Engineering Research
  • ENEMY DETECTION
  • A new sensor that measures the motion created by
    sound waves under water could allow the U.S. Navy
    to develop compact arrays to detect the presence
    of enemy submarines.
  • These compact arrays would detect quiet
    underwater targets, while providing very clear
    directional information.
  • The novel underwater sensor uses optical fibers
    to detect the direction from which a sound is
    coming under water.
  • This directional component is an important
    improvement over the current technology.

35
Mechanical Engineering Research
  • MATERIALS MAY SOON AID ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY
  • Motivation To develop devices that may soon
    improve the treatment of human orthopedic
    conditions.
  • Details
  • The research focuses on shape-memory polymers
    and alloys solid materials that can change shape
    on demand.
  • Example Knee Surgery. Surgeons drill tunnels in
    bone and then anchor tendons into those tunnels
    screw threads that often injure tissue. By
    contrast, the shape-memory polymer fits into a
    surgical tunnel along with the tendon, conforming
    around the delicate tendon to hold it in place.

36
Mechanical Engineering Research
The Development of a Kinematic Model for a
Rehabilitation Robot
  • There is currently no way to quantify how much a
    person with neuromuscular disorders shake.
    Shaking is the inability to modulate muscle
    patterns.
  • Objective Develop a quantifiable test for
    people with neuromuscular disorders.
  • Patients will wear the robotic jacket and press a
    joystick in a prescribed way.
  • The jacket's actuators will then be turned off,
    one by one, to see how the muscle movements
    change.
  • This will isolate which muscles are most affected
    by the help of the jacket.
  • Different muscle groups and levels of shakiness
    vary with each type of ailment.
  • Ultimately the goal is to diagnose different
    neuromuscular ailments with this testing.
