The project goal was to design and create two
laboratory modules that would be used in course
MECE-301, Engineering Applications Laboratory. The
modules would be used to teach the concepts of
engineering analysis, practical experimentation,
and introduce the students to new engineering
principles. This would be provided by a set of
advanced investigative scenarios that would be
simulated by theoretical and/or computational
methods, and then characterized experimentally. The
goal was to provide the customer, a mechanical
engineering professor at the Rochester Institute of
Technology, Professor John Wellin, with two
functional modules that could be tested throughout
the duration of this course by students. The two
modules the team chose to develop and design were a
Railgun Module and a Static Thrust Testing Module.
