(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis describes the implementation of three Kaizen events designed to improve efficiency on a gauge production line which consists of both semiconductor and mechanical equipment for manufacturing complex products ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This study explores the use of Kalman filtering of measurements from an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to provide information on the orientation of a robot for balance control. A test bed was created to characterize the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)There are 1.6 billion people across the globe who still live without access to electricity. For this group, the modern electrical framework providing fundamental services for health, food and water processing and storage, ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Nanostructured Origami is a manufacturing process that folds nanopatterned thin films into a desired 3D shape. This process extends the properties of 3D design and connectivity found in origami artwork to the bulk fabrication ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This project examines the choreography of high speed turns performed by Danio aequipinnatus, giant danio, with the goal of understanding the motions that allow this species to perform its highly efficient maneuvering. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)A new 6-degree of freedom dynamometer is presented. Six load cells measure the normal forces at the contact points of a three groove kinematic coupling. Three toggle clamps are used to preload the machine, so that it does ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)In order to determine the extent to which ankle motion is voluntarily controlled during walking, angular velocity measurements at the ankle were taken in two cases. In the first case, subjects were seated and instructed ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Chimeric kinesin 1 (KHC) / kinesin 5 (Eg5) constructs were used to study the force generation mechanism of the motor protein. The kinesin family of proteins walk along microtubules to carry cargo or pull microtubules along ...
