3d Printing Of Lunar Regolith Based Ceramics Via The Dlp Method, Ricardo Vasquez

2022 MME Undergraduate Research Symposium

Ceramic parts generally have poor machinability due to their high hardness and high brittleness. Researchers and industries have overcome the difficulty of machining ceramics and have manufactured parts with intricate geometry by using pre-ceramic polymers in stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing and using slurries based on ceramic powder and photopolymer resin in digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing, among other methods. This presentation will discuss the processes involved in the 3D printing of ceramic and ceramic composite parts via the DLP technique. A vital step in ceramic 3D printing is to optimize the printing parameters for a specific slurry formulation in …

A Qualitative Look Into Repair Practices, Jumana Labib

Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference

This research poster is based on a working research paper which moves beyond the traditional scope of repair and examines the Right to Repair movement from a smaller, more personal lens by detailing the 6 categorical impediments as dubbed by Dr. Alissa Centivany (design, law, economic/business strategy, material asymmetry, informational asymmetry, and social impediments) have continuously inhibited repair and affected repair practices, which has consequently had larger implications (environmental, economic, social, etc.) on ourselves, our objects, and our world. The poster builds upon my research from last year (see "The Right to Repair: (Re)building a better future"), this time pulling …

Application Of Phased Array Eddy Current (Paec) Nondestructive Technology For Stress Corrosion Cracking (Scc), Cameron A. Jones

GS4 Georgia Southern Student Scholars Symposium

Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) is the constant growth of a crack or fault due to the tensile and corrosive stresses in a given environment. These cracks can potentially progress to sudden and catastrophic failures in metals exposed to tensile stress and corrosive environment. The over-whelming cost and damage caused by Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) is an immense amount of cost in many industries considering that SCC happens to produce a spontaneous failure due to overload stress. The topic of stress corrosion cracking has drastically changed the movement and progression of the production of better-quality products and engineering design such as, …

Digital Transformation: Implementing 3d Printing Activities Into Core Business Classes, Shota Yasuda, Rohit Gibson, Will Smith, Beau Wilkins, Blair Dilbeck, Jamari Baker

Symposium of Student Scholars

The business college’s new 3D lab, launched in August 2021, has been providing 3D design and 3D printing workshops for core business classes, specifically IS 2200 and IS 3100, to allow students to experiment with additive manufacturing, more commonly known as 3D printing. In the age of digital transformation, it is more important than ever that business school graduates are exposed to these emerging technologies, learn from experimentation, and develop a foundational understanding of these technologies so that they are better prepared to innovate and lead once they have graduated.

The idea of the 3D printing workshops is that a …
