Show moreThe ultimate goal of the Zero Energy Lab is to get the fourth level of machinery hall off the electrical grid. The IPRO is moving towards transforming the space into a research space for future energy and lighting technologies. Since the end goals of the Zero Energy Lab are ambitious for one semester we are proposing to address solar hot water, a golf cart used as a mobile battery bank, and window efficiency this semester. We are also hoping to learn some tuck-pointing techniques to make the space more presentable. We would like for the team to learn new things about the technologies we are researching and using. We hope to have a good hands-on experience with energy efficiency and green technologies. The team is a collaboration of students from various majors including architecture, political science, civil engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and biophysics. Together we believe we will be able to create a cohesive end product and work well together along the way.

Show moreElectrostatic adhesion provides an attachment mechanism for robotic grippers that is both controllable and e ective over a wide range of surfaces including conduc- tive, semi-conductive and insulating materials. The adhesives function by utilizing a set of high voltage electrodes that generate an electric eld. This electric eld polarizes the substrate material, thus generating an adhesion force. Optimizing the geometry of these conductive electrodes provides enhanced adhesion forces that in- creases attachment robustness. Previous researchers have attempted to increase the adhesion level of an electrostatic adhesive but no e ort has been made to optimize the geometry and con guration of the electrodes. This thesis presents a method to increase the adhesion level of electrostatic adhesives by optimizing the electrode geo- metric parameters: width of the electrodes, thickness of the electrodes, gap between the electrodes and number of electrodes. With the optimized electrode geometry, an improvement of up to 500 percent in shear stress is achieved compared to previously published values.
