Mobility feasibility of fuel cell powered hopping robots for space exploration
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
Small hopping robots have been proposed that offer the potential to greatly increase the reach of unmanned space exploration. Using hopping, bouncing, and rolling, a small spherical robot could access and explore subterranean ...
Ultrasonic inspection methods for defect detection and process control in roll-to-roll flexible electronics manufacturing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
Roll-to-roll flexible electronics manufacturing technologies require new sensing and measurement capabilities for defect detection and process control. This body of work investigates the use of ultrasound, specifically ...
The reduction of supersonic jet noise using pulsed microjet injection
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
This thesis is concerned with the active control of supersonic jet noise using pulsed microjet injection at the nozzle exit. Experimental investigations were carried out using this control method on an ideally expanded ...
