Dual-Axis Solar Tracker, Bryan Kennedy Jan 2020

Dual-Axis Solar Tracker, Bryan Kennedy

All Undergraduate Projects

Renewable energies, and fuels that are not fossil fuel-based, are one of the prolific topics of debate in modern society. With climate change now becoming a primary focus for scientists and innovators of today, one of the areas for the largest amount of potential and growth is that of the capturing and utilization of Solar Energy. This method involves using a mechanical system to track the progression of the sun as it traverses the sky throughout the day. A dual-axis solar tracker such as the one designed and built for this project, can follow the sun both azimuthally and in …


Rc Mini Baja Car - Suspension And Chassis, Collin Mckenzie Jan 2020

Rc Mini Baja Car - Suspension And Chassis, Collin Mckenzie

All Undergraduate Projects

Two students have developed a unique design of the RC Baja Car to optimize functionality and performance. A Baja car is a remote controlled 1/10 scale car that is used for recreation or competition, usually meant for competing in the ASME Baja car competition versus various schools. The competition focuses on the best time achieved in different courses that utilize speed, turns, and jumps. The objective for the project was to create a unique suspension from previous individual’s projects by creating a four-link suspension in which allows more travel in the suspension of the car and maintains functionality with the …


Rider's Aid, E-Bike Kit, Song Wang Jan 2016

Rider's Aid, E-Bike Kit, Song Wang

All Undergraduate Projects

When it comes to observing the schema of upgrading bicycles into a hybrid model, the existing model usually costs hundreds of dollars and more than one hour of installation since it requires the process of replacing a wheel or even purchasing a new bicycle. But in fact, it was not necessary to remove the original wheel because the key to achieve power drive could be taken as an external function added to the primitive bike. Under the conditions of retaining applicability and safety that transportation should never get rid of, this project was focusing on reducing budget and saving time …


An Electronics Course Of Study For The High Schools In The Highline School District, Rual Elmer Tigner Aug 1962

An Electronics Course Of Study For The High Schools In The Highline School District, Rual Elmer Tigner

Graduate Student Research Papers

Electronics is now being taught in the Highline District in one course for one year in each of the four high schools. There are no formal district objectives tor this course, no sequence of instruction, no list of course content. The writer has felt the need for the above and has interviewed all four instructors in the district and the assistant superintendent of instruction. It was agreed that in order to provide a more meaningful, correlated program, it would be necessary to have such a district-wide course of study developed. In view of this, the writer has attempted to develop …
