Machine design

Development of competitive products relies on individuals with high competence in systems engineering, human ergonomics, and component engineering.

Students in the Machine design track in the Engineering Design Master programme, are trained to create, select, dimension, optimise and verify cost-effective technical quality products, with an efficient aid and support from industrially relevant and state-of-the-art tools and methods. Development and engineering design of competitive products and components relies on a holistic approach as well as on specialist knowledge. Realisation of world-class machines requires model-based development and computer-tools for choosing proper materials and manufacturing methods for the components, and optimising the entire system and making it more insensitive to variation i product properties, human treatment and operational and environmental conditions.

Students may develop an individual profile in systems engineering, component engineering design, manufacturing technology or modelling methodology.

Development of complex systems

Development of interactive products and interaction modelling, engineering, manufacturing and testing of high-performing components.

MS Thesis Guidelines

Students may choose to pursue a thesis as part of their MS degree program, but only with the consent of a faculty advisor willing to supervise the thesis work. 

Preparation of a thesis representing an independent research work is a pivotal phase of this MS degree program. It provides the student with an opportunity to work on an open-ended problem, developing a particular solution that is not pre-determined and involving synthesis of knowledge and intellectual creativity. The thesis may involve an investigation that is fundamental in nature, or may be applied, incorporating theory, experimental testing and/or analytical modeling, and/or creative design. Through the thesis, candidates are expected to give evidence of competence in research and a sound understanding of the area of specialization involved. Students are also strongly encouraged to present their research at scientific conferences and publish the results of their thesis research in a peer-reviewed journal.

Students receive a grade of Y (incomplete) in these courses as long as the thesis in progress. Eventual thesis grades replace the incomplete grades upon formal completion of the thesis. In order to receive a grade of Y for ME-0296/ENP-0296, students must submit a  thesis prospectus  that outlines the area of work, thesis goals, proposed approach and a review of relevant past work in the literature before the end of the first semester in which the student enrolls in ME-0296/ENP-0296, typically the third semester of full-time study. For an example of a recent MS thesis prospectus please reach out to [email protected]. 

The examining committee for MS candidates completing theses should be composed of three (3) members.

• Thesis advisor (committee chair)
• One technical expert outside of the student's department
• A third member of the committee, often another faculty member in the student's department

The committee chair is normally a full-time, tenure-track faculty member. One committee member must be from outside the student's department. Thesis normally counts as 9 credits towards the MS degree requirements. However, a student, with the approval of their thesis advisor, has the option to complete a 6-credit thesis by submitting a petition form to the Department. This petition must be signed by the student and the thesis advisor and will become part of the student's academic record. With a 6-credit thesis, a student must complete an extra graduate-level course (for a total of 8 courses) to fulfill the 30-credit requirement for graduation. This option is not typically available to those intending to pursue a Ph.D. degree. 

Thesis Completion

The MS thesis is completed upon:

• A successful oral defense (open to the community)
• Submission of an approved thesis to the Office of Graduate Studies

The student should consult the  Graduate Student Handbook  for specific dates and deadlines for this process in the graduation semester.

The fundamentals of automatic washing machine design based upon dynamic constraints

Daniel Carroll Conrad , Purdue University

The objective of this study is to develop a fundamental resource for appliance engineers to understand the dynamic constraints involved in the design of automatic washing machines. This is accomplished through the development and examination of basic models. The fundamental characteristics of the suspension system are determined for top and bottom mount horizontal axis washers. Similitude is used to discuss the characteristics of vertical axis washers. The fundamental models developed for the suspension systems show good correlation with the dynamic response of actual washing machines. It is possible to use these fundamental models to determine limits or bounds upon the suspension stiffness of the system for both top and bottom mount suspension designs. The stability of bottom mount suspension systems is discussed. From the analysis of the suspension designs, the need for dynamic balancing of the clothes load during the spin extraction cycle is established. The need for dynamic balancing is a prominent observation of the suspension system analysis. Hence, a review of auxiliary mass damper designs is presented with emphasis on application to automatic washing machine design. Design criteria for using dynamic balancers are discussed and the limitations of these devises are explained. Liquid ring balancers show the most promise due to cost; however, mechanical balancers are more effective in controlling the system's response. Finally, a new type of dynamic balancer, the elastic mass balancer, is developed. The dynamic constraints imposed upon the washing machine design are typically tub deflection and walk performance for a given unbalanced load. The theory of walk is established using fundamental models to explore specific environmental interactions. Design criteria are developed from this analysis which will enable the washer suspension engineer to gain valuable insight into the walk response of the washing machine during the spin extraction cycle. It is shown that the spin speed achievable is dependent upon the suspension design. Without a suspension, the washing machine can only achieve spin speeds of 200 RPM while actual machines achieve spin speeds of 1600 RPM. The use of walk as a design constraint is discussed for washing machine design. Finally, the design observations for a washing machine using dynamic constraints are discussed. Through the use of these observations, a design engineer will be able to determine the benefits and limitations of a suspension design on the dynamic response of a washing machine prior to the actual development of the system. Therefore, this study gives the design engineer insights on the design of washing machine suspension systems based upon the dynamic constraints imposed upon the system by the consumer. The use of these insights should reduce the time required to develop a useful suspension system and improve the quality of the suspension design before actual construction of the product is initiated.

URBAN SONIFICATION: A Computational Design Framework of an Adaptive Sound Barrier System for Noise Reduction in Urban Context

 In an era of rapid technological and economic development, urbanization has exacerbated  noise pollution, posing collective human comfort and well-being challenges. Current urban  sound barriers are often static and limited in their effectiveness across different urban  settings and noise levels. There is a lack of integration between sound management and  adaptive technologies that can respond in real-time to changing urban soundscapes. This  thesis delves into developing an adaptive framework for urban sound barriers to reduce noise  pollution. By doing so, it seeks to mitigate the physical and mental health effects of excessive noise while fostering positive social impacts by establishing sound visualization  “boundaries” within urban spatial environments.  The experiment outlined in this thesis adopts a workflow that incorporates live sound  collection, data processing, machine learning, real-time sound visualization, acoustics  simulation with analysis, and prototyping. The primary objective is to develop a framework  for adaptive sound barrier systems tailored to different decibels and sound frequency levels.  These systems are assessed for their effectiveness in noise reduction through simulated  evaluation. Key methodologies include field acoustics simulation, as well as the integration  of sound visualization, sonification, the Internet of Things (IoT), tiny machine learning,  and design systemization.  Preliminary acoustics simulations indicated that adaptive sound barriers can effectively  reduce urban noise pollution. The systems demonstrate variability in response to different  noise levels and frequencies, showcasing the potential for broader application in diverse  urban settings. The findings suggest that adaptive sound barriers could revolutionize urban  planning and design, offering a dynamic solution to the persistent problem of noise pollution.  Further research will be needed to optimize system designs and evaluate long-term impacts  on urban environments. Future studies will explore materiality, scalability, and integration  with urban infrastructure.
