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.

A student demonstrates his team's project, "A Device for Hands-Free Home Urine Testing," sponsored by Joeseph Gyekis. The team designed a device that could be installed in patients' homes that could collect a urine sample while allowing the toilet to function as normal. The team included Alex Ortega (ME), Srdan Kalaba (BioE), Chris Ignozzi (ME) and Michael Malizia (ME).

Daniel Penley, Graduate Student Research Assistant in Mechanical Engineering, reviews his laser manufacturing techniques that drill holes in the graphite anode of EV batteries inside Professor Neil Dasgupta's laboratory at 3658 G. G. Brown on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on Friday May 7, 2021.
The University of Michigan is researching ways to harness abundant materials for battery production, or reuse older materials to relieve the disproportionate pressure placed on countries like Democratic Republic of Congo for cobalt or the Philippines for nickel.

Jianping Fu, associate professor of mechanical engineering, and Yi Zheng, a mechanical engineering research fellow, 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?

Construction workers install the base of the sculpture "3 Cubes In A Seven Axis Relationship" outside of the G.G. Brown Building on North Campus of the University of Michigan on August 24, 2017.
The sculpture is a 14,000 pound, 25-foot tall kinetic structure that took Philip Stewart, Pinwheel artist, two years to design and was commissioned by the U-M College of Engineering in honor of Charles M. Vest, U-M Alumnus and former Dean of the College of Engineering U-M Provost.
“When Chuck was Dean, he had an interest in establishing a collection of artwork on
the University of Michigan’s (U-M) North Campus,” said Alice Simsar, a fine art consultant who works with the U-M. “That’s why this gift in his name is so fitting. An
official dedication of the sculpture will be planned in connection with the U-M Mechanical Engineering Department’s 150-year celebration in 2018,” she added.

Professor James Holly Jr., addresses his MECHENG 499: Mechanical Engineering and Racial Justice in the Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday morning, March 22, 2023.
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.

2017 NSF CAREER: Three-Dimensional Unsteady Flow Interactions in Flocks and Schools
Keith Moored has specific interests in unsteady fluid mechanics, biological flying and swimming, vortex dynamics, fluid instability, multiple-body fluid interactions/boundary interactions, cell motility, active structures, tensegrity structures and cellular mechanics. He also has related interests in marine hydrokinetic and wind turbines. The approaches Moored uses are a combined program of theory, computations and experiments.
Moored's project focuses on extending our knowledge of the fluid dynamic interactions that occur in animal collectives: flocks, schools and swarms. The overarching research goal of the program is to understand the flow mechanisms that occur among unsteady, three-dimensional interacting bodies in complex arrangements. This will help scientists determine the sensitivity of biological networks in relation to overfishing, loss of habitat and the climate change.
