"È assai probabile che questi motori senza fili, come potremmo definirli, possano essere manovrati per conduzione attraverso aria rarefatta, da considerevoli distanze. Le correnti alternate, soprattutto quelle ad altra frequenza, passano con stupefacente libertà anche attraverso gas non molto rarefatti. Gli strati superiori dell’atmosfera sono rarefatti. Per raggiungere la distanza di un certo numero di miglia nello spazio dobbiamo superare difficoltà di natura puramente meccanica. Non c’è dubbio che con gli enormi potenziali ottenibili dall’uso di alte frequenze e dell’isolamento a olio, si potrebbero far passare scariche luminose attraverso molte miglia di aria rarefatta; e incanalando in questo modo l’energia di molte centinaia di cavalli-vapore, i motori o le lampadine potrebbero essere manovrati a distanza considerevole dalle fonti fisse.
Ma queste che cito sono solo possibilità. Non ci servirà trasmettere energia in questo modo. Non ci servirà trasmettere energia in alcun modo. Prima che passino molte generazioni, le nostre macchine saranno alimentate da un’energia ottenibile in qualsiasi punto dell’universo. Quest’idea non è nuova… la troviamo nel meraviglioso mito di Anteo, che trae la sua energia dalla Terra, la troviamo tra le ingegnose congetture di uno dei vostri splendidi matematici… lo spazio abbonda di energia. È un’energia statica o cinetica? Se è statica, le nostre speranze sono vane. Se è cinetica - e sappiamo con certezza che lo è - allora è solo questione di tempo prima che gli uomini colleghino con successo i loro macchinari agli ingranaggi stessi della natura…"

Andrew Weng, Mechanical Engineering PhD Student, and Anna Stefanopoulou, William Clay Ford Professor of Technology, identify an early-life diagnostic signal that predicts the impact of the formation protocols on battery life without needing cycle life testing at 1015 Auto Lab on North Campus of the University of Michigan on October 15, 2021.
The technique can be deployed in battery manufacturing settings rapidly and at no additional cost. The newly discovered method can help battery manufacturers optimize their formation protocols and ensure that automotive-grade batteries can be both affordable and long-lasting.

A particle spectrometer is set up near a newly installed ceiling fan with UV lighting to better understand how many infectious aerosol particles others in a classroom are expected to inhale under various mitigation scenarios inside 1311 EECS on North Campus in Ann Arbor, MI on Monday, May 17, 2021.
There's a lot we don't know about how these particles behave indoors, but a core conundrum is that while aerosols do not stay within six feet of their source, they're also not uniformly distributed throughout a room.

Brianne Giangiobbe '16 puts her dragster into place.
Student teams from the Manufacturing and Design competed in a year end drag race. The semester long project challenges students to design a dragster using engineering analysis so that it can race down a track and come to a stop after crossing the finish line. The competition winner is determined by a combination of speed, braking, and manufacturing cost for the car. The course was taught by Matt Rhudy, visiting assistant professor of mechanical engineering.

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.
The National Science Foundation has awarded U-M researchers $2 million to offset the required fossil fuels that are currently burned during the catalytic process of ammonia production with solar power. That method, known as the Haber-Bosch process, is now the largest contributor of greenhouse gases from an industrial chemical process - as much as 2 percent of global emissions.

Professor James Holly Jr., checks in with small groups in his MECHENG 499: Mechanical Engineering and Racial Justice class in the Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday morning, March 22, 2023. From left the students are Anthony Womack, Jr., Mizan Thomas, and Timothy Taylor, Jr., all undergraduates in mechanical engineering.
This is the second time the course, developed by Holly in 2021, has been offered. He typically begins with a key question, such as: “Is technology a barrier to, a tool for, or a non-factor for racial justice?” In this course, Holly wanted his students to use critical thinking in their responses.Traditional curricula often emphasize making, doing, and calculating—the tangible sides of engineering. Yet there isn’t always time and space for students to examine how their thoughts are being deliberately created and facilitated. Discussion questions are designed to give students the opportunity to both think collaboratively with others, as well as to speak up. Holly calls it “Think-Pair-Share,” where students first think of their own answers, pair up to discuss them, and then share with the whole classroom.

Yi Zheng, a mechanical engineering research fellow, and Jianping Fu, associate professor of mechanical engineering, examine a microfluidic chip developed in Fu’s lab at the University of Michigan. On the chip, stem cells organize into embryo-like structures for the purpose of studying early human development.
The system can reliably produce the structures needed to help investigate important questions in maternal and child health, such as: What chemicals pose risks to developing embryos, and what causes certain birth defects and multiple miscarriages?

Robert Middleton, Assistant Research Scientist in Mechanical Engineering,and André Boehman, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, set up a particle spectrometer to better understand how many infectious aerosol particles others in a classroom expect to inhale under various mitigation scenarios inside 1311 EECS on North Campus in Ann Arbor, MI on Monday, May 17, 2021.
Different parts of a room will have different risk levels, depending on many factors, including: how HVAC vents affect aerosol trajectories, how effective windows or HVAC are at bringing in fresh air, and how many virus particles an infected person emits. Typical indoor airborne transport models do not take this uncertainty or variability into account.

Alexander Hill, a Chemical Engineering Graduate Student Instructor, monitors 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.
