Since the loss of the 2016 Olympics the site has fallen into disrepair, our mission is to bring the site out of its ashes to become an area that will benefit Chicago and its people. We would like to use previous Ipro’s work as an anchor to fill the rest of the site creating an area that will contribute to the community.”

Show moreA method for improving searches in a peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing system that includes a plurality of server computers. A content file, identified by a descriptor including at least one metadata term and a mathematical identifier that uniquely identifies the content file in one of the server computers, is selected for searching. Other server computers are searched to find one or more matching content files; one that has a descriptor with a mathematical identifier matching the mathematical identifier of the first content file. The descriptors of the matching content files are returned to the searching server computer and used to expand the local descriptor.

Since BIM is a fairly new product with few, if any, competitors, we don’t see many options for the immediate future, when it comes to IPRO projects.

Show moreInformal observations of a practical and creative approach piloting Blended Library Instruction for undergraduate Civil Architecture and Engineering students, in collaboration with faculty. At Illinois Institute of Technology students don’t receive library instruction as a required class or in tandem with a composition class. Faculty will schedule one-time sessions, which ideally should be planned with a class assignment in mind, but students are rarely engaged with a one time instruction. Many have IKIA syndrome or I Know It Already syndrome. The Millennials are a group that has integrated technology into every aspect of their lives and they assume that retrieving useful or necessary information will be easy. When they discover this isn’t the case lack of time, heightened anxiety, and increased frustration can prevent them from doing their best work. By intentionally creating a similar crisis prior to library instruction, students were more interested in what they stood to gain during pending library instruction. In this presentation we will discuss: 1) A creative means of delivering library instruction to a traditionally challenging population: engineering undergraduate students 2) Qualitative information collected via multiple assignments and interpreted in a quantitative fashion, as well as our observations. 3) A method for preparing students for library instruction that can be applied in almost any discipline without asking the instructor to sacrifice class time.

Title: Jet-cavity Interaction Tones

Show moreA fundamental study of resonant tones produced by jet-cavity interaction over a wide range of flow conditions covering both subsonic and supersonic speeds is described. Two significant findings emerge. For the jet-cavity configurations investigated, a suitably defined reduced frequency parameter allows for a global classification of all jet-cavity tones into two main types. For the first type, the reduced frequency depends on the jet Mach number, whereas for the second type, the reduced frequency is independent of the jet Mach number. We propose simple correlations for the frequency of both types of tones. Based on earlier research, we had expected that the traditional classifications of cavity flows into the open, transitional, or closed variety would be insensitive to small changes in Mach number and would depend primarily on the cavity's LID ratio. However, use of the novel high-resolution photoluminescent pressure sensitive paint shows that these classifications are actually quite sensitive to the jet Mach number for jet-cavity interactions. However, these classifications provide no guidance for determining tone type, amplitude, or frequency.

Show moreThe goal of the IPRO is to try to find an inexpensive, but accurate way of measuring the power output of a rider on a bicycle. Problems with systems currently available are: some products are not compatible with all bike systems causing the need to purchase new parts, the cost of the available products is expensive, and some of the available IPRO 324 Project Plan Page: 4 measuring systems are not very accurate. In order to achieve our goals and to improve the current technology, our IPRO is divided into two groups: the mechanical and the electrical team.

As part of this objective, the group aims to provide an extensive catalogue of information on low-impact hydroelectricity so as to establish a strong foundation for future IPROs/EnPROs concerned with the project. We hope to take advantage of IIT’s unique role as an education and research institution to accomplish the task.

Show moreThe IPRO 347 team intends to seize the opportunity given by Robbins Community Power (RCP) to improve the efficiency of the power plant. RCP plans to convert the facility from its original role as an incinerator into a wood biomass electricity plant. Working with RCP, the team will look at thermodynamic values to determine how to best utilize the excess heat generated from the boiler that currently radiates out the cooling towers. Additionally, the team will research and discuss possible solutions to be implemented on the 22 acre site. The intricacies that arise from the nontraditional nature of our plan require we split into two groups. One sub-team will look into exactly where the waste heat exists and the values of viable energy available in the form of steam or hot water. This team will seek interdisciplinary advice as part of the energy analysis. The second, but most influential, sub-team will predominantly be researching feasible outlets for the recovered energy. Some solutions they will pursue include supplying nearby greenhouses with CO2, providing on-site and local heat, and increasing the efficiency of the plant through drying processes.

Accordingly, there are significant job opportunities in this field and it is expected that this will continue to grow in the next decade. However, the design of UAS is truly an interdisciplinary task as it requires an excellent team work with expertise in diverse areas ranging from aircraft design to autonomous flight, video and data transmission to visual object recognition, the operation of ground station such as real time data analysis and antenna tracking as well as legal/policy aspects of UAS flight operations.
