Design, Fabrication, And Testing Of A High-Speed, Low-Cost Atomic Force Microscope Housing And Distance Measurement System, Jonathan Menke Jan 2021

Design, Fabrication, And Testing Of A High-Speed, Low-Cost Atomic Force Microscope Housing And Distance Measurement System, Jonathan Menke

All Undergraduate Theses and Capstone Projects

Advances to the state-of-the-art in fields like biology and material science often stand on the foundation of improved imaging. Here a low-cost Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) housing and distance measurement system was designed, fabricated, and tested. The instrument was developed around an Optical Pickup Unit (OPU) and designed for use as part of a high-speed AFM system. A structure to align the OPU with the probe holder was designed to ensure the beam of the OPU is positioned above the probe in addition to accommodating space, manufacturability, and cost constraints by using cost effective components. The designs were fabricated and …


Model-Based Verification For Simulink Design, Victor Oke Jan 2015

Model-Based Verification For Simulink Design, Victor Oke

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

Testing a Model-Based design is the only way to determine the correctness of the designed model but not enough to conclude that the design is error free. Verification exposes all the design errors and describes the functionality of the system. Assertion based verification helps to determine whether the model obey the actual design requirements. This thesis work is mainly based on verification of a Water Tank control system modeling using SIMULINK model.
