Show moreThis semester, the IPRO 310 team is continuing the work started by the previous semester’s team. Our work will build off of the previous team’s work and many of our objectives will be an extension of their original objectives. This semester, the team has set forth the following objectives:  Finish benchmark testing on the lawnmower including gas emissions  Further research the safe storing and usage of hydrogen as a fuel  Develop guidelines to create and maintain a safe laboratory area  Investigate avenues to decrease overall conversion cost  Perform the engine conversion  Write a step-by-step conversion manual keeping in mind safety and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards Although the team’s main objective is to provide a safe way to convert a gas-powered lawnmower to a hydrogen-power lawnmower, the team will strive to create an environment in which team collaboration, the application engineering knowledge and ability, and individual passion for the project can flourish thus providing a rewarding and educational experience for all of the participants.

Show moreThe purpose of this IPRO is to develop a robust, working prototype that can automatically monitor and detect a problem with a milling machine at A. FInkl & Sons Co. This IPRO is in its fourth semester and there are two challenges remaining: (1) alerting management to the detection of broken teeth during machining; and (2) developing spatial representations of items undergoing heat treatment. However, A. Finkl & Sons has asked us to concentrate solely on the goal of finding a way to detect when a break occurs in one of the milling teeth and then alert the mechanic monitoring the machine in order to replace it. This system will involve measuring vibrations using an accelerometer or by the use of laser detection. The goal of this IPRO is to research, test, and inform A. FInkl & Sons of the best solution to invest in, therefore they can decide what is better for their company.

Show moreThe objective of this IPRO subteam is the improvement of the importation of data to CDN XL in small and medium enterprises sector. This subteam is working toward the problem of improving the way data is imported from customer to CDN XL (an ERP system). The methodology to be employed is the agile methodology. The expected result of this project is a preliminary software system for importing data from Excel or other heterogeneous files to CDN XL. The goal of the team’s project is to develop a program to for the importation of data from customers to be imported into the CDN XL system to be used by the deployers. The deliverables at the end of the project will be a template for customers, program to extract the data. The team will examine the process of importing the data to develop a program that is generic enough to import different types of data. This project plan is separated into the objective section, where the objective of the subteam is fully explained. In the background section, the background of the project and sponsor are detailed. Also, a diagram of how the CDN XL system works is included. Furthermore, the technology used and possible ethical issues are addressed. The third section describes the methodology being used. The way documentation of work is also addressed in this section. In addition, the risk management and quality assurance will be addressed in this section. The expected results are explained in the fourth section – the form it is in as well as potential products that might arise from this project. In the sixth section, the tasks, duration of each task and milestones are included. The team members are introduced in the seventh section. Finally, in the last section, the designation of roles – what each team member is responsible for – is detailed.

Dorsey Community and Cultural Arts Center, which will be located at the corner of 33rd Street and Indiana (just east of the IIT campus). In this sub-project (part of a series of related IPROs), participants will focus on four tasks: (1) creating an online discography (database) covering 1900-1960; (2) developing a web-based interactive map of music venues in Bronzeville, 1900-1960, including landmarks located on what is now the IIT campus; (3) creating a series of CDs illustrating the music played at each venue, 1900-1960; (4) negotiating contracts with commercial music publishers and gathering required permissions. Students will research relevant archival materials in the VivianG. Harsh Research Collection of Afro-American History and Literature, the DuSable Museum, the Chicago Historical Society, and the Chicago Jazz Archive at the University of Chicago. Finally, students will begin to prepare informational materials in diverse media for distribution at the Dorsey Center.

Show moreIPRO 307 is following the path of its predecessors in order to help improve the shipping transportations and facilities in Kankakee County, IL. While there have been other IPRO teams that have contributed to the modernization of the intermodal system at MI-Jack Shipping Company, our sponsor is now looking for us to further their research in this field. They would also like us to further the research in high speed intermodal along with a viaduct enhancement system. One of our tasks is to select a location in Kankakee County to place the intermodal system. We have decided to break this into two locations with one being in-city and the other being out-of-city. Kankakee County has been selected because two major rail lines pass through it. There is also a highway that runs through the center of it. Therefore, it is an ideal 2 location for an intermodal yard. Also, there is a wind farm being built in Kankakee, so we will be able to save energy by thinking green. In our selection process for a location, we may need to relocate some people. Therefore, our plan is to have affordable housing at our out-of-city location. We will design this affordable housing along with the warehouses and storage facilities, which go along with the design of an intermodal yard.
