A student talks about his team's project, "Payload Hauler Omni Directional (PHOD)," sponsored by Nearth. The team included mechanical engineers Alex Koslov, Jay Stillmun and Andrew Timmons, and was asked to improve upon a payload hauling device designed to transport things up and down shafts. The students focused on reducing drivetrain complexity, enclosing components and creating an easy way to use payload.
Detail of a small battery cell being cycled at the Lu Lab at the George G. Brown Laboratories building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Tuesday, May 31, 2022.
To understand how batteries operate over a lifetime they must be cycled through being charged and discharged thousands of times. Lu said, "“We can now use machine learning technology to dramatically accelerate battery testing and optimization.”

David Kwabi, mechanical engineering assistant professor, right, and Siddhant Singh, mechanical engineering PhD student, discuss the operation of an electrochemical flow cell designed to desalinate water at the Battery Lab in 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.

Prototype lithium-ion batteries built at the University of Michigan Battery Lab undergo diagnostic measurements inside an environmentally controlled chamber at 1015 Auto Lab on North Campus of the University of Michigan on October 15, 2021.
University of Michigan researchers identified an early-life diagnostic signal that predicts the impact of the formation protocols on battery life without needing cycle life testing. 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.

Co-workers Dr. Ronald Dass and Dr. Yun-Hui Huang, who worked with Prof. Goodenough on the fuel-cell research.
Mechanical engineers at the University of California, San Diego invented a robot designed to scoot along utility lines, searching for damage and other problems that require repairs. Made of off-the-shelf electronics and plastic parts printed on an inexpensive 3D printer, the SkySweeper prototype could be scaled up for less than $1,000, making it significantly more economical than the two models of robots currently used to inspect power lines.
