Modeling Performance Of Microgrid And Electric Vehicle Technology On The Utah State University Electric Distribution Network, Jackson Morgan
Modeling Performance Of Microgrid And Electric Vehicle Technology On The Utah State University Electric Distribution Network, Jackson Morgan
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
To estimate the value of solar power, energy storage, and electric vehicle charging on a small utility's distribution network, power system simulation was performed to compare the load profiles and bills of various levels of deployment. This project used Utah State University's south distribution network and its new parking structure as a testbed for simulation and analysis of new energy technology. The project found that for a rate structure with a fixed capacity reservation and a low energy charge, campus solar power is not currently viable for significantly reducing costs. Conversely, electric vehicle charging could be implemented at a low …
Hardware Verification Of Lunar Terrain Relative Navigation, Sam Christensen
Hardware Verification Of Lunar Terrain Relative Navigation, Sam Christensen
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Autonomous delivery to the lunar surface requires proven, cost-effective navigation techniques, especially during the final descent. Terrain Relative Navigation (TRN) is a compelling solution because it has no infrastructure requirements, such as beacons on the lunar surface. However, previous validation of this technique has relied on software simulation of image acquisition and vehicle state estimation. This research leverages the autonomous drone facilities at USU to validate the TRN technique in a hardware system. A hardware demonstration will verify the effectiveness of the TRN technique in a realistic environment simulating the final descent of a lunar lander. This environment will provide …

Civil Engineering Teaching and Learning
The goal of this project was to attract K-12 students to transportation engineering careers through STEM outreach programs. To accomplish this goal, the object of the project was to design and implement maritime freight oriented educational outreach activities centered on traffic sensing technologies for middle, high school, and first-year college students. In MarTREC Project 5011 (Evaluating the Performance of Intermodal Connectors), the research team designed a low-cost, easily implementable LiDAR and Bluetooth sensor bundle that was capable of detecting, characterizing, and tracking freight trucks as they traveled to and from inland waterway port areas. The sensor provided data necessary to …

Born in Bangor, Maine on July 21, 1922, Waldo "Mac" McClure Libbey received a baccalaureate degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Maine and a Master's Degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology before completing his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Libbey returned to UMaine to teach until his retirement in June 1990. Libbey also undertook consulting work in the area of acoustics and noise. Record series include teaching, education, and publication records as well as administrative and consulting records and correspondence.
