Characterization Of Functionally Graded Regolith-Metal Powder Mixtures For Additive Manufacturing In Space, Ian Jones

Student Research Symposium

Additive manufacturing (AM), colloquially known as 3D Printing, is a manufacturing process in which a component is fabricated layer-by-layer. For metallic materials, the most common AM methods use powders as feedstock materials. To print in space, one abundantly available material is the loose powder covering the moon, i.e., lunar regolith. However, past research has shown that regolith does not have ideal properties for AM.

There are two main material properties that affect AM performance: (1) powder flowability, and (2) packing density. Powders must be able to flow over the print bed, otherwise the printer will jam. When powders naturally pack …

Dynamic Angle Of Repose Of Ss316l Powders Fabricated By Gas Atomization For Additive Manufacturing Applications, S. M. Mahid

Student Research Symposium

Trip Production Models For Persons With Disabilities, Pouyan Saeidian

Student Research Symposium

People with disabilities constitute nearly 13% of the US population, with their mobility being more restricted compared to other groups. To provide equitable access to transportation facilities, it's crucial to delve deeper into their travel patterns and mobility. Our research examines their mobility patterns by comparing daily trip metrics with those without disabilities and modeling and analyzes factors influencing their travel frequency to inform policy enhancements

High-Throughput: An Approach For Simultaneous Creep Testing Of Nuclear Structural Alloys, Raushan Singh

Student Research Symposium

Creep is a time-dependent deformation at constant load and elevated temperature.

It is widely used in an application that involves high temperature under load for e.g., Nuclear reactors.

Creep tests are notoriously slow, taking weeks/months to complete one experiment.

• This makes High-Throughput techniques more desirable

Our Goals:

(1) Demonstrate novel High-Throughput methods to perform more creep tests more quickly

(2) Apply those methods to more quickly characterize 3D printed 316L (future work)

Do “In The Family” Coaching Hires Outperform External Hires In Ncaa Division I Men’S Basketball, Maxfield Lane, Nels Popp, Jonathan A. Jensen

Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics

When conducting searches to fill head coaching positions, many college athletics directors frequently look to candidates who have a connection to the university; former players, assistant coaches, or students. Hiring someone from a university’s “family” is often a popular decision among stakeholders, but utilizing such parameters in a search severely restricts candidate pools. More importantly, little empirical evidence suggesting such hires perform better. The purpose of the current study was to examine whether NCAA Division I men’s basketball coaches who are “In the Family” hires perform better than “External” hires in measures of (a) team success and (b) recruiting. The …

Global Overconsumption And Its Effects On Climate Change, Alex Friedley, Caitlyn Conlee, Jason Rhinehart

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

Global overconsumption is an issue that is affecting the masses and without change, there will be dire consequences for the environment and for future generations to come. This problem stems from the production of daily consumed resources such as food, clothing, and e-waste that are pumped out at drastic rates from different companies worldwide causing the increase in CO2 emission which results in global warming. These sources of waste end up in areas where it can be detrimental to human health. Countries like Denmark have a system in place to address this problem (The Climate Act). The Climate Act was …

Lost Voices: Examining Child Trafficking Across The United States And Haiti, Christi Boswood, Allison Arjes, Joryn Hanson, Kayla Mol, Josie Moreland, Allison Stewart

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

It is estimated that 1.2 million children are trafficked each year, and two children are sold every minute. These children are exposed to some of the world’s most adverse experiences. Reports show that trafficking is the second most lucrative crime in the world. This study will examine the connection between trafficking across the United States and Haiti by exploring the types of child trafficking, why it occurs, and how traffickers can control and move children across borders. It is imperative that more people understand its global and local implications on children and find ways to mitigate the practice.

Child Marriage And Child Solider Policies In Democratic Republic Of Congo And Niger, Mawlia Meh, Lexie Hauber, Morgan Kline, Ramiyah Boyed

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

• Every year 650 millions women are being forced into marriage before the age of 18.
• In countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo and Niger young girls around the age of 15 and younger are forced into marriage and young boys at the age of 5 are often forced and kidnapped to become soldiers.
• In 2005 and 2022, more than 105,000 children were recruited and used by parties to conflict.
• These problems are happening due to the lack of resources faced in these countries.
• Can lead to many health effects including depression, sexually transmitted infections, cervical cancer, malaria, obstetric fistulas, …

Poverty is a …

Breaking The Patterns Of Homelessness, Jaylynn Easterly, Yaqueline Trinidad, Mya Snitker, Araely Hanson

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

Homelessness is a global issue that affects people living in all kinds of different environments. The impacts of homelessness are relatively similar when it comes to developed and undeveloped countries. The uncertainty and stress of homelessness can lead to mental health problems including depression, anxiety and many others. When it comes to physical health, not having a stable living environment can make it more difficult to have access to basic needs such as clean water, safe shelter and nutritious foods. The lack of basic necessities often leads to malnutrition, exposure to harmful weather conditions and a higher sensitivity to diseases …

A Comparative Analysis Of Drug Use Policies: A Global Guide To Prevention And Treatment, Elliot Throndson, Lauren Hawker, Patience Kies, Logan Green

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

In recent years, drug usage has increased on a global scale, and with this has come an array of responses from various countries suffering the effects. This study will compare and contrast the approaches of Norway, The Philippines, and the United States. The Norwegian approach focuses on harm reduction, preventative measures, and accessible treatment. The Philippines declared an all-out war on drugs, creating human rights violations and a lethal environment for those suffering from addiction. The United States varies by state in their responses, with many aiming to dismantle harmful federal policy from the 1970s “War On Drugs.” Through these …
