Concussion in sports is a prevalent medical issue. It can be difficult for medical professionals to diagnose concussions. With the fast pace nature of many sports, and the damaging effects of concussions, it is important that any concussion risks are assessed immediately. There is a growing trend of wearable technology that collects data such as steps and provides the wearer with in-depth information regarding their performance. The Smart Headband project created a wearable that can record impact data and provide the wearer with a detailed analysis on their risk of sustaining a concussion. The Smart Headband uses accelerometers and gyroscopes …

Buckling Loads Of A Graphene Layer Interacting With Rigid Substrates, Bradley Beckwith
Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects
The goal of this project is to formulate a model that can predict the buckling of a graphene layer between two rigid substrates. The model will predict the buckling of the graphene layer when it is parallel to the substrates and an edge load is applied to the ends of the layer. Our main focus is to use the model to predict buckling loads given different assumptions for interaction forces between the graphene layer and the substrates. For this project continuum modeling will be used to create a model for the graphene buckling problem. This modeling leads to a total …
