Vadzidzi vanoshandisa akasiyana siyana mukati meKremer Innovation Center kugadzira prototypes uye zvikamu zvezvikwata zvemakwikwi.
Dhizaini nyowani yeinjiniya uye chivakwa cherabhoritari - iyo Kremer Innovation Center - iri kupa mikana kuvadzidzi veRose-Hulman kuti vawedzere maoko-pa, zviitiko zvekubatana zvedzidzo.
Midziyo yekugadzira, maprinta e3D, tunnels dzemhepo uye maturusi ekuongorora mativi anowanikwa muKIC zviri nyore kusvika kune vadzidzi vanoshanda muzvikwata zvemakwikwi, mapurojekiti ekugadzira matombo ematombo uye mumakirasi einjiniya emakanika.
Iyo 13,800-square-foot Richard J. naShirley J. Kremer Innovation Center iyo yakavhurwa pakutanga kwe2018-19 yechando yedzidzo quarter uye yakatsaurirwa Kubvumbi 3. Yakapihwa zita rekukudza philanthropy yevaviri kusangano iri.
Richard Kremer, 1958 kemikari engineering alumnus, akaenderera mberi nekutanga FutureX Industries Inc., kambani inogadzira muBloomingdale, Indiana, inonyanya kuita tsika yepurasitiki extrusion.Kambani iyi yakakura mukati memakore makumi mana nemaviri apfuura kuti ive inotungamira mutengesi wezvigadzirwa zvemapepa epurasitiki kune zvekufambisa, kudhinda, nekugadzira maindasitiri.
Iri kudivi rekumabvazuva kwekambasi, padyo neBranam Innovation Center, nzvimbo iyi yakawedzera nekusimudzira mikana yekuvandudza uye kuyedza.
Mutungamiri weRose-Hulman Robert A. Coons vanoti, “Kremer Innovation Center iri kupa vadzidzi vedu hunyanzvi, zviitiko uye mafungiro ekuita basa rakakosha mukugadzira budiriro yeramangwana inobatsira nzvimbo dzese dzehupenyu hwedu.Richard uye kubudirira kwebasa rake mienzaniso yakanaka kwazvo yezvakakosha zveiyi institution pabasa;tsika dzinoramba dzichipa hwaro hwakasimba hwekubudirira kwazvino uye kweramangwana kwaRose-Hulman nevadzidzi vedu. "
Iyo KIC inopa midziyo iri kushandiswa nevadzidzi kugadzira prototypes yemapurojekiti akasiyana.A CNC router muFabrication Lab (inonzi "Fab Lab") inocheka zvikamu zvikuru zvefuro nehuni kugadzira zvikamu zvakachinjika zvemotokari dzezvikwata zvemijaho.Muchina wejeti wemvura, midziyo yekucheka huni uye itsva tabletop CNC router chimiro chesimbi, purasitiki gobvu, huni uye girazi kuita zvikamu zvinobatsira zveese maumbirwo uye saizi.
Mapurinda akati wandei e3D achakurumidza kubvumira vadzidzi kuti vatore madhizaini avo kubva kubhodhi rekudhirowa (kana komputa skrini) kugadzira uyezve prototype nhanho - nhanho yekutanga mukutenderera kwekugadzirwa kwechero chirongwa cheinjiniya, anodaro Bill Kline, anoshamwaridzana dean wehunyanzvi uye purofesa. yeinjiniya manejimendi.
Chivako ichi zvakare chine Thermofluids Laboratory nyowani, inozivikanwa seWet Lab, ine chiteshi chemvura uye nemimwe michina inobvumira mapurofesa einjiniya yemechini kuti vavake zviitiko zvekuongorora mumakirasi avo emvura, ayo ari kudzidziswa mumakirasi ari padyo.
"Iyi irabhoritari yemvura yemhando yepamusoro," anodaro mumwe purofesa weinjiniya yemuchina Michael Moorhead, uyo akabvunza nezvekugadzira zvinhu zveKIC.“Zvatinokwanisa kuita pano zvingadai zvakatiomera kare.Zvino, kana (mapurofesa) vachifunga kuti maoko-pamuenzaniso angabatsira kusimbisa pfungwa yekudzidzisa mumagetsi emvura, vanogona kuenda padyo nepedyo voisa pfungwa yacho mukuita. "
Mamwe makirasi anoshandisa nzvimbo dzedzidzo ari kuvhara misoro senge theoretical aerodynamics, sumo yekugadzira, propulsion masisitimu, kuongorora kuneta uye kupisa.
Rose-Hulman Provost Anne Houtman anoti, "Kubatanidzwa kwekirasi uye nzvimbo yeprojekiti iri kutsigira faculty mukubatanidza maoko-pane zviitiko mukuraira kwavo.Zvakare, KIC iri kutibatsira kupatsanura mapurojekiti makuru kubva kune madiki, 'akachena'."
Pakati peKIC pane lab yekugadzira, uko vadzidzi vanofungira uye vanogadzira mazano ekugadzira.Pamusoro pezvo, nzvimbo dzekushandira dzakavhurika uye imba yemusangano iri kushandiswa zuva nezuva nehusiku nezvikwata zvakasiyana-siyana zvemakwikwi zvinodyidzana muzvidzidzo zvese.Situdhiyo yedhizaini iri kuwedzerwa yegore rechikoro ra2019-20 kutsigira vadzidzi vakanyanya mukugadzira engineering, chirongwa chitsva chakawedzerwa kune 2018 curriculum.
“Zvose zvatinoita ndezvekubatsira vadzidzi vedu zviri nani,” anodaro Kline.“Takaisa panzvimbo yakashama uye tisingazive kuti vadzidzi vaizoishandisa here.Muchokwadi, vadzidzi vakangokokera kwairi uye yave imwe yenzvimbo dzakakurumbira dzechivako ichi. ”
