An estimated 3.4 million people die each year from unsanitary water or inaccessible water supply. Most of these deaths take place in the developing, third world (99%). There is a dilemma arising on the world stage as well. The water demand/supply deficit is expected to increase significantly over the next 37 years if preemptive action isn’t taken. 97% of the world water supply is oceanic, making it an attractive solution to the water deficit. Providing autonomous, “deploy and watch” systems for utilizing sustainable energy to provide purified water for unitized low pricing has the potential to penetrate a large world …

With the increase in production of the F-35 Lightening II, Lockheed Martin is currently revising their manufacturing processes to ensure they are capable of meeting the new demand for the aircraft. Different aspects of manufacturing are being altered including innovative packaging for specific components necessary for assembly. Modern packaging of components can lead to shorter lead-times, an increase in reusable and recyclable materials, and an increase in product protection.
This senior project addresses these packaging issues and provides a solution for the needs required by Lockheed for the packaging of their components. The result involves using a Korrvu® packaging solution …
