Manoj Thota, a graduate student research assistant in mechanical engineering, makes adjustments to a prototype of an origami traffic sound barrier in an anechoic chamber in the G.G. Brown building on the University of Michigan's North Campus on November 7, 2017.
The barrier combines a set of cylindrical rods with an origami base. The origami base allows the rods to be easily reconfigured in different patterns, which are designed to block different noise frequencies. This technology could be applied alongside busy highways to block different noise frequencies depending on how traffic is moving. The barriers are also wind-permeable, lighter, and better at dissipating specific frequencies than current barriers.
The research was conducted in the Structural Dynamics and Controls Laboratory under the direction of Kon-Well Wang, the Stephen P. Timoshenko Collegiate Professor and Tim Manganello / BorgWarner Department Chair of Mechanical Engineering. Thota helped lead the research.

Elizabeth Callison, Graduate Student Research Assistant at Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering tests the drag characteristics of biofilm (the green slime that grows on the bottom of ship hulls) inside the Marine Hydrodynamics Laboratory at 1085 S. University Ave. in Ann Arbor, MI. on Thursday March 7, 2019.
Using a laser line scanner, Callison can get the profile of the biofilm which later will be used to print a 3D rigid replica to test the differences between biofilm that can flutter and move as opposed to a rigid one.
With this information, Callison hopes to show what proportion of the drag of biofilm comes from its compliance (ability to move). This would be useful to be able to tell at what point it is necessary to clean a ship hull from biofilm so that it would still preform well, i.e., continue to reach its top speed, and less fuel consumption.

Andrew Gayle, a Mechanical Engineering Graduate Student Research Assistant, and Alexander Hill, a Chemical Engineering Graduate Student Instructor, monitor a new reactor designed to produce ammonia for fertilizer without relying on fossil fuels.
U-M’s team is pioneering a system that harnesses energy from sunlight, reducing the reliance on temperature and pressure to bring the hydrogen and nitrogen together. It will pull nitrogen from the air using an air separation unit while splitting water molecules to produce hydrogen. Those gases will then be compressed inside the reactor to create ammonia at significantly lower temperatures and pressures than traditional methods. Each step in U-M’s process is driven by solar power, through both electricity-generating panels as well as new catalysts that help fuel chemical reactions with light, known as photocatalysts.

Mohammed Islam, Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Professor of Biomedical Engineering, College of Engineering, demonstrates use of a chemical sensor prototype in the EECS Building on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on December 8, 2017.
The sensor is able to detect a variety of qualities from a distance of more than 100 feet away and could be used to identify traces of drugs and explosives, as well as speeding the analysis of certain medical samples. Previously such a sensor was only able to be used in closed proximity.
Islam's research group built a laser-producing device that is able to send an infrared laser of various intensities through a series of different fibers that are connected.
