DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING PROJECTS
WORLD RECORD BREAKING SODA BOTTLE ROCKET
In this project, a bottle rocket powered by water and compressed air is designed. The main goal of this rocket is to break the world record for the maximum altitude of an unreinforced soda bottle (Class D) following the standards of The Water Rocket Achievement World Record Association.
MASTER BLASTER
Many high-volume recreational water guns are dif cult for adolescents to wield. The Master Blaster is a lightweight and ergonomic water gun-backpack assembly that provides continuous and colorful water ammunition from a diaphragm pump. The pump is powered by sixteen rechargeable batteries to sustain the user in prolonged water warfare.
DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING OF A UAV LANDING GEAR WITH AN INBUILT CHARGING MECHANISM
A drone landing gear that allows drones to land on horizontal objects with a diameter less than 3 inches. There are two different designs: One operates using a servo, while the other is fully mechanical using a pen-clicking mechanism.
BATTERY-FREE BANDPASS EARMUFFS
A pair of earmuffs which can block damaging noise while enabling communication, without using electronics is designed. To do this we redesigned an existing headphone to include Helmholtz resonators which will pass sound only at speci c frequencies. This product could be useful in military and industrial elds.
CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE CYLINDRICAL PRESSURE VESSEL
The most common material used for pressure vessel manufac- turing is steel. However, for speci c applications, it can be unfavor- able due to its heavy weight. To improve on the typical steel design, ber-reinforced composites provide one of the best choices due to its lightweight and high-strength structure.
CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE SPHERICAL PRESSURE VESSEL
Typically, pressure vessels are made from aluminum or steel,
the end result of which is heavy and cumbersome. The goal of our project is to produce a spherical pressure vessel from composite materials, namely carbon ber, which will ideally be both lightweight and potentially stronger than a traditional metal container.
