The Global Formula Racing team used additive manufacturing to produce a lightweight and compact battery housing for their electric race car. The housing was printed from fire-resistant PA12 plastic using an EOS laser sintering machine. This allowed the team to reduce the housing volume by half and weight by 40% compared to the previous design. It also integrated cooling channels and cable ducts directly into the housing. This optimized design helped improve the car's performance and safety.

IRJET-CFD Analysis of conceptual Aircraft bodyIRJET Journal
The document analyzes the aerodynamic performance of a conceptual aircraft model through computational fluid dynamics (CFD). CFD analysis is performed on the aircraft model at different angles of attack and taper ratios to determine lift and drag forces. The results show that lift force increases with angle of attack up to stall angle, while drag force also increases. Higher taper ratios are found to generate more lift force and less drag force compared to lower taper ratios. The CFD results provide valuable data to evaluate the aircraft design for applications in fighter jets, commercial aircraft, and drones.

The system also includes a ground sensor network to transmit data to rangers and help locate poaching threats on the ground.
Jean N. Koster is Professor Emeritus of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Colorado at Boulder, specializing in systems engineering. Over his 28-year career at CU Boulder, he focused on developing hands-on curricula for sophomore students and a rigorous senior design program emphasizing systems engineering and teamwork. He has extensive experience in materials science, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and experimental technologies. As a professor, he mentored dozens of undergraduate and graduate student design teams, including pioneering teams that developed hybrid propulsion solutions for aircraft.
Dr. Jean N. Koster is a Professor Emeritus of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder. He has over 35 years of experience in research and teaching in fields related to fluid mechanics, materials science, and alternative energy systems. Some of his notable achievements include developing experimental technologies in fields like particle image velocimetry, leading experiments aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia, and receiving over $3.2 million in research funding. He has also founded two startup companies focused on hybrid propulsion systems and has received several awards for his research and teaching work.
Jean N. Koster is a researcher whose work can be found on Researchgate, where she provides links to her published research papers. She is also currently working on a project called AREND, which has a website providing more details about this initiative.
The document outlines plans for the AREND aircraft's critical design review. It discusses the project objectives of finding poachers in the Kruger National Park before they kill. The concept of operations involves the aircraft searching sectors within the park from launch stations. Subsystems that will be reviewed include embedded systems/control/communication, on-board sensors, power/propulsion, fuselage, wings/tail, and testing integration. Risks like schedule delays and budget issues will also be addressed.
An international student team led by the University of Colorado at Boulder is designing an unmanned aerial system called AREND to help protect endangered species in South Africa from poachers. AREND will use sensors to detect humans and large animals and will provide aerial surveillance to conservation efforts. The team is collaborating with universities in Finland, South Africa, Germany as well as companies to build and test AREND, which aims to more efficiently monitor wildlife and reduce poaching of rhinos and elephants.
The document proposes a Solar Power Satellite Demonstration System (SOPOSADES) to evaluate providing solar power from orbiting satellites to a lunar outpost. A key goal is establishing energy infrastructure before astronauts land. SOPOSADES would consist of an orbiter satellite collecting solar energy and beaming it to a lander receiver at the lunar outpost, providing 12 kW for life support, research, and resource utilization. Design considerations include orbital parameters, solar collection technologies, energy transmission methods, and subsystem requirements to demonstrate feasibility for future lunar and Mars bases.
AIAA 2012 878 312 Hyperion Green AircraftJean Koster
Student engineering teams from three international universities collaborated to develop two iterations of an unmanned aircraft called Hyperion over two academic years. The first iteration, Hyperion 1.0, was a 3m wingspan flying wing design inspired by NASA's X-48B blended wing body aircraft. The second iteration, Hyperion 2.0, evolved the design into a true blended wing body configuration with increased wing sweep. Aerodynamic modeling showed Hyperion 2.0 achieves a more elliptical lift distribution and stall at the midwing as desired. Hyperion 2.0 is intended to demonstrate a novel hybrid gas-electric propulsion system concurrently under development.
The document describes the SOLSTICE hybrid propulsion system being designed by students for a blended wing-body aircraft called Hyperion. The goal is to design, build, integrate and test a hybrid combustion/electric propulsion system that allows the aircraft to operate in different flight modes (cruise, quiet, dash) using the electric motor and internal combustion engine separately or together. The SOLSTICE system uses a patent-pending gearbox to combine the torque from the electric motor and internal combustion engine to drive a single propeller. Analytical models were created during the design process to ensure the system can provide sufficient power for the aircraft.
The Hyperion project was an international collaboration between universities in Colorado, Germany, and Australia to design, build, and test an unmanned aerial vehicle. The project used a "follow the sun" model where each team worked in 8 hour shifts to allow for near-continuous development. Students gained experience in global project management, green aviation technologies, and systems engineering skills through the design and manufacturing of the blended wing body aircraft. Final flight testing was conducted by the global team in Colorado in April 2011.
This itinerary provides Jean Koster's schedule for the 50th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting from January 9-12, 2012. It lists presentations given by Jean Koster on solar power satellite demonstration systems on January 10th, the Hyperion 2 green aircraft project on January 11th, and the Hyperion UAV international collaboration on January 12th. The itinerary also provides session details and allows online access to the full meeting schedule.
The document lists several YouTube videos about the development of the Hyperion aircraft project. The videos discuss the international collaboration in creating the aircraft, as well as University of Colorado Aerospace Engineers winning an award for their work. Contact information is provided for the project's lead, Prof. Jean Koster of the University of Colorado Boulder Aerospace Engineering Sciences Department.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
