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.

Laura Trebesh, Data Management Imaging Specialist; Maria woodward, Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences; and Hao Chen, ME Research Fellow, discuss the 3D scan of the iris of Volker Sick, Arthur F Thurnau Professor, ME Professor, and Associate Vice President for Research - Natural Sciences and Engineering, 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.

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.Communications & Marketing
Kazu Saitou speaks with masters and PhD students considering the University of Michigan Mechanical Engineering Program at a visit day in the G.G. Brown Laboratory on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on March 18, 2022.
The Mechanical Engineering Department had 20 prospective students visit the department for PhD Visit Day. Throughout the day the prospective students met with multiple faculty, toured labs, chatted with current PhD students, and toured North Campus.
Saitou is the Associate Chair for Graduate Education for the Mechanical Engineering Department.

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.

My pops found these calculators lying around the house. The graphing calculator on the right was THE thing back in 1992... and I could save equations for heat transfer exams. Probably not the advantage I thought it was back then. Plus, my math skillz are far from l33t.
