Design of a best-practice start-up accelerator for the Granada Health Technology Park
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Accelerators are ecosystem catalyzers introduced in 2005 by Y-Combinator. They are time-bounded programs to facilitate core resources for entrepreneurs (mentors, capital, training), with the goal of making the trial-and-error ... -
Design of a Bi-Directional Converter Module for Battery Cell Voltage Charge Cycling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-09)A framework for testing and controlling a bidirectional DC to DC converter is proposed that can be used for battery cell cycle testing. The circuit allows for the shuttle of energy in both directions for a battery cell ... -
Design of a bias-weaving machine : thread manipulation and other topics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)A machine for producing bias weaves (thick, multiaxial weaves) is presented. It consists of a fill/warp weaving apparatus superimposed on a general braiding machine. The braiding machine consists of a set of moveable columns ... -
Design of a bicycle rig
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)A design of a bicycle (bike) rig was conducted. This bike rig is designed to be used for aerodynamics measurement testing of bicycles, cyclists and cycling related items in a wind tunnel. This paper discusses the design ... -
Design of a Bimodal Chemical-Electrospray Propulsion System using Ionic Liquid Monopropellants
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)Two primary propulsion modes currently exist for spacecraft: chemical (e.g. monopropellant, cold gas, solid propellant) and electric (e.g. Hall thruster, ion engine, electrospray). Chemical propulsion typically offers high ... -
The design of a bioenergy potential map and a GIS-enabled optimization model for biofuel production in India
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)India has a remarkably large inventory of biomass, but the operation of biorefineries has been difficult due to the uncertainty in biomass availability and the lack of biomass supply chain management in the industry. To ... -
Design of a biologically-inspired underwater burrowing robot with on-board actuation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The Atlantic razor clam (Ensis directus) burrows by contracting its valves, fluidizing the surrounding soil and reducing burrowing drag. Moving through a fluidized, rather than static, soil requires energy that scales ... -
Design of a biomechanically synergistic exotendon suit
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)The focus of this thesis is on the design, development, and evaluation of a lightweight, exotendon suit for load carriage. The suit is intended to be worn underneath the wearer's own clothes for use in a military setting, ... -
Design of a biomimetic pectoral fin joint in an artificial fish
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)A biomimetic design of the muscle joint in a pectoral fish fin was produced based on comparisons with four design models. All four design models consisted of a mechanical joint connection and incorporated the functional ... -
