ACADEMIC PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS
Mechanical Engineering Senior Capstone Project (August 2014 – May 2015)
NASA Human Powered Exploration Rover
The objective of this project was to design, build, and test a human powered vehicle that can navigate a multitude of terrains through
a half-mile course in the NASA Human Exploration Rover competition. The inspiration for the project was NASA’s desire to
traverse the various types of terrains during the exploration of planets, moons, and asteroids. The project consisted of 19 engineering
and customer requirements that were used to guide our design. All criteria and requirements were successfully met. Along with the
final product, the team had to complete three different presentations; technical presentation to the engineering advisor, oral
presentation to judges and students at the NAU Undergraduate Symposium, and a poster presentation and final product display at
the NAU Undergraduate Symposium. The project was award 1st place overall for capstone and senior design at the Symposium.
Machine Design (January 2014 – May 2014)
Single Reduction Gear Box
As a part of the Machine Design course, I was instructed to design, code, and model a single reduction spure gear speed reducer gear
box. MATLAB code was written to verify design choices, followed by the use of Solidworks to model the design. The need for the
gear box was to implement into a factory that had a generator with a torque, rotational speed, and power output that was too high
for one of the working machines. The gear box was designed to step down the rotational speed and power output of the generator
so that the machine could be safely operated without possibility of structural failure. The design incorporated a specific failure point
so that if any failure occurred it would not damage the gear box, working machine, or generator. It also incorporated keyways that
allowed for the replacement of gears if needed, a life time cycle of over 10,000 hours, and a housing that allowed for easy oil changes.
The final design, code, and model received a grade of an A+.
Engineering Paper Proposal (January 2014 – May 2014)
Solar Powered Canoe
For the technical writing class, my group was paired with a real customer who had the inspiration to create a business that w ould
transport people and their camping gear across Lake Mary to various camping locations. The idea was to have a solar powered canoe
that could carry the customer, 500lbs of gear, and two additonal occupants across the lake in a timely and efficient manner. The team
was tasked with the job to design the solar powered canoe, based on the customers needs and desires, and formulate a budget for the
cost of the project. The final design of the solar powered canoe was based on a typical canoe shape, with the addition of an outrigger
pontoon to help house the mechanical equipment. The canoe was powered by an electric outboard trolling motor, which allowed for
the greatest maneuverability and the ability to hinge the motor to protect it during on-land transportation. Electrical power supply
came from two deep cell batteries stored in the pontoon, which were charged by three solar panels that were mounted between the
pontoon and the canoe. The final design, cost, and schematics received a grade of an A+.
