Aerial robotics, or drones, can be massively applied to daily life: delivery, photography, agriculture, mining, oil detection, structural health monitoring, rescuing and many many other areas. (You can even propose to your girlfriend by flying a drone!) This drone club is aimed at gathering any people (undergrads, grads, faculty, hobbyists, etc) to build drones and brainstorm all possible drone applications in a laid-back manner. If you are thrilled to use drones to better serve people and nature, please join us! https://gobblerconnect.vt.edu/organization/aerialroboticsclub Alpha Omega Epsilon Alpha Omega Epsilon is a professional and social engineering sorority that focuses on promoting women in engineering while offering the bonds of sisterhood. We were chartered as the Rho Chapter of Alpha Omega Epsilon on January 22, 2006. Our sisters are from all walks of life with many differing interests, but one thing we all understand is how difficult it is to be a woman in the male-dominated field of engineering. To help all of our sisters find a niche, our sorority is involved in a wide array of activities. http://www.aoe.org.vt.edu/ Alpha Pi Mu Alpha Pi Mu was the brainchild of James T. French who in 1949 was a senior industrial engineering student at Georgia Tech. Nine men chosen through their affiliation with the Georgia Tech Chapter of Tau Beta Pi constituted the original membership station

    Model and Control System Development for a Plug-In Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle Eduardo De Jesus Marquez Brunal Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering Douglas J. Nelson, Chair John B. Ferris Steve Southward (May 3, 2015) (Blacksburg, VA) Keywords: Hybrid electric vehicle, model based design, vehicle model, control strategy, performance, fuel economy, energy consumption, bench testing, P3 parallel. Copyright 2016, Eduardo De Jesus Marquez Brunal Model and Control System Development for a Plug-In Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle Eduardo De Jesus Marquez Brunal Abstract The Hybrid Electric Vehicle Team (HEVT) of Virginia Tech is participating in the EcoCAR 3 Advanced Vehicle Technology Competition series organized by Argonne National Labs (ANL), and sponsored by General Motors (GM) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). EcoCAR 3 is a 4-year collegiate competition that challenges student with redesigning a 2016 Chevrolet Camaro into a hybrid. The five main goals of EcoCAR 3 are to reduce petroleum energy use (PEU) and green house gas (GHG) emissions while maintaining safety, consumer acceptability, and performance, with an increased focus on cost and innovation. HEVT selected a P3 Plug-in Parallel hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) to meet design goals and competition requirements. This study presents different stages of the vehicle development process (VDP) followed to integrate the HEVT Camaro. This work documents the control system development process up to Year 2 of EcoCAR 3. The modeling process to select a powertrain is the first stage in this research.

  • 2019 ANNUAL REPORT MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Revised and Corrected, Nov
    2019 ANNUAL REPORT MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Revised and Corrected, Nov. 2019 CONTENTS * 4 FACTS AND FIGURES * 6 RESEARCH * 28 FACULTY * 40 FACULTY RECOGNITION * 42 PUBLICATIONS * 61 DONORS 2 Revised and Corrected, Nov. 2019 FROM THE DEPT HEAD Welcome friends, alumni, and supporters of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Virginia Tech. For several years now the department has been in the midst of a substantial growth curve that has seen an increase in the numbers of students, faculty, laboratories, research partnerships, and a broadening of what it means to be a mechanical engineer. The fields of study within mechanical engineering have continued to evolve and today we are one of the most diverse fields in engineering, working on everything from nano-particles to extra-planetary robotics and equipment. From bio-inspired material, to bio-medical design, and from nuclear engineering to additive manufacturing that changes the way we design, develop, and build the hardware of tomorrow. Please take a glimpse of the outstanding and substantial research of our faculty and students which has grown significantly in recent years to national and international recognition. I am proud of the work done by more than 100 full-time, affiliate, and adjunct faculty, and all our dedicated staff who propel the department forward, and the more than 1,100 undergraduates and more than 300 graduate students who stand by ready to lead us into the next genera- tion. This annual report is a reflection of their efforts in making the department one of the most respected in the world.

    Joseph F. Ware Jr. Advanced Engineering The Ware Lab 20TH ANNIVERSARY Joseph F. Ware Jr. Born and raised in Blacksburg, Virginia, Joseph F. Ware Jr. attended and graduated Virginia Tech with a degree in Mechanical / Aeronautical Engineering in 1937. He moved “You can on to Cal Tech where he obtained his Masters Degree in the understand same area of study, and later joined Lockheed Martin as the anything, and if you Department Manager of Engineering Flight Test on the world’s can understand it, fastest and highest flying airplanes along side engineering you can fix it.” legend Kelly Johnson. — Joseph F. Ware Jr. Ware was a family man and enjoyed flying his plane. He loved animals, teaching, economics, politics, and his country. He was a patriot and served in the Civil Air Patrol and the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Ware and his wife Jenna co-founded the Ware Lab in 1998 to support undergraduate student design projects. Since his passing in 2012, his wife Jenna continues to support projects in the design laboratory and carrying on the generous legacy of the Ware name at Virginia Tech. Joe Ware and College of Engineering Dean Emeritus Bill Stephenson (left) and walking around the opening of the Ware Lab (right). Ware Lab Joseph Ware recognized a need for a facility dedicated solely to undergraduate student projects at Virginia Tech, so he generously funded the conversion of the military laundry building to suit the needs of the design project teams. By 1998 the first teams moved into the lab and the facility and the number of teams has continued to grow ever since, housing an overflowing 11 teams in 2018.

    Q FOR THE UP AND COMING AND ALREADY ARRIVED $3 • ISSUE 26 • NOVEMBER 2010 vbFRONT.com Mary Miller, NCTC president WELCOME to the FRONT With the November issue of Valley Business FRONT, we initiate a monthly Economic Indicators page that will give you a statistical look at business in the Roanoke and New River regions. Veteran statistical analyst Anne Piedmont, who worked for the Roanoke Economic Development Partnership for 18 years specializing in just this kind of analysis, will put the statistics together. We will organize them into a pleasing graphic format, giving you a great deal of information quickly and efficiently. Anne, who calls herself a “numbers geek,” recently left the partnership to open her own shop, Piedmont Research Associates, offering her services to private businesses. She talks excitedly about statistics and that enthusiasm will be at the center of this revolving analysis, which will look at the issues most important to the business community. Anne will take a look at a variety of issues including housing (a special focus on foreclosures), air travel, freight, employment, utility costs, job creation among many others. We are thrilled to have a professional at Anne’s level performing this service for you. It is yet another in a continuing effort to remain relevant and in FRONT of the media mob in the region.
