Portrait of David Kwabi, mechanical engineering assistant professor, at the Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project on the North Campus of the University of Michingan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday, August 10, 2022.
Kwabi is the primary investigator on this project which seeks to help with global water scarcity struggles. He and three mechanical engineering colleagues were award a ME Research Innovation Pilot grant as they continue working toward an energy-efficient electrochemical system to remove sodium chloride from brackish and sea water.

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.

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).

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.

Dr. S. V. Sreenivasan (left), a mechanical engineering professor and the Eli H. And Ramona Thornton Centennial Fellow, and Dr. C. Grant Willson (right) a chemical engineering professor, combined their expertise in nano-precision machines and microelectronic materials to invent a mechanically-driven approach to embossing tiny patterns on silicon chips used to run computers and energy-efficient LED devices. This step-and-flash lithography technique prints smaller structures than any of the camera-like machines in use today for the same purpose.
Morton and his colleagues consider a European map used to visualize potential routes of nuclear smugglers. With the grant from the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office of the Department of Homeland Security, Morton (left) and fellow mechanical engineering faculty will spend five years expanding his computer model for radiation detector placements based on detailed information about smuggling scenarios and models of smugglers’ strategic behavior. Assistant Professor Erich Schneider (center) will build the computer model’s description of the nuclear material being smuggled and radiation detectors' recognition of concealed material. Associate Professor Elmira Popova (right) will provide probability calculations, and run computer simulations to test the computer model.

The glove box is filled with argon gas so the battery will not be exposed to either oxygen or moisture.

Volder Sick, Arthur F Thurnau Professor, Mechanical Engineering Professor, and Associate Vice President for Research, Natural Sciences and Engineering stands in as a test subject for a specially designed plenoptic camera that scans the surface of the iris and quickly renders a 3D model in the Kellogg Eye Center in Ann Arbor, MI on September 20, 2017.
The 3D model will allow ophthalmologists to render models and detect changes in the surface of the iris, enabling them to quickly identify injuries and diseases within the body.
Sick is collaborating with Maria Woodward, Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, and David Burke, Professor of Human Genetics, as part of a Cubed project.

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.
