Additive manufacturing (AM) — also known as 3D printing — is rapidly disrupting the manufacturing sector, providing freedom of design, allowing a transition from rapid prototyping to real commercialization, decreasing material waste, and reducing time and cost of manufacturing. Furthermore, AM methods can be utilized for the manufacturing of functionally graded materials (FGMs).

Unlike conventional homogenous materials, FGMs are characterized by transitions in design, microstructure, texture, and properties that can be obtained at relatively small or large length scales, depending upon the functional gradient desired in a particular application.

Somayeh Pasebani, assistant professor of advanced manufacturing, is working to advance research in metal additive manufacturing, focusing on new techniques such as selective laser melting (SLM). Technologies like SLM allow engineers to create objects with detailed control over process parameters, part geometries, and structures that would have been impossible just a few years ago.

Using a materials design approach, Pasebani and her research group couple experimental research with theory and mechanistic modeling for the accelerated and innovative development of alloys and metal matrix composites that can be manufactured by additive manufacturing. In doing so, they are developing the tools that will overcome the limitations of conventional and current additive manufacturing.

The practical applications of this research will be far-reaching, from high-temperature oxidation and corrosion-resistant parts for extreme environments — such as energy sectors, aerospace, or nuclear reactors — to implementation in tooling industry.

Pasebani collaborates with several faculty members across the College of Engineering, as well as companies such as HP, ATI, and Daimler Trucks, with support from research grants from the RAPID Institute, Oregon Metals Initiatic, and Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center.

EXPLORING THE FRONTIERS OF ADVANCED MANUFACTURING

In legend and in practice, turning saltwater into sweet water is old news. Aristotle mused about desalination in the fourth century B.C. In the second century, sailors boiled seawater and collected the fresh condensate in sponges — the first documented desalination system. Even the Old Testament mentions desalination, albeit divinely accomplished. Today, thousands of desalination plants in 150 countries produce almost 30 billion gallons of fresh water every day — a testament to their effectiveness. The United States’ largest desalination plant, located in Carslbad, California, produces 50 million gallons daily.

But desalination is, arguably, the most expensive of all water supply alternatives. The expense of just building a large plant can exceed $100 million. Once the fresh water flows, it must be pumped at great cost to distribution points. At an overall cost of $3 to $4 per 1,000 gallons, desalination is considerably pricier than options such as stormwater recovery and water recycling and reuse. And both of the dominant desalination technologies — thermal and membrane — require enormous energy input.

“Climate change has made many wet places a lot wetter and many dry places much, much drier,” said Bahman Abbasi, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the campus in Bend. “If we had the ability to desalinate water exactly where people are struggling to get enough clean water, we could ease a lot of needless suffering.”

A novel desalination system devised by Abbasi offers a better solution. Supported by $2 million from the Department of Energy — the largest award in OSU-Cascades history — Abbasi is leading a team of researchers to develop a modular, portable, self-contained desalination plant. The group includes investigators from Michigan State University, the University of Maryland, and the University of Nevada, Reno.

In Abbasi’s system, high-speed air jets atomize and evaporate incoming saltwater. “It’s like if you blow too hard into a bowl of soup and it splashes all over the place,” he said. “Later in the process, we dehumidify the air so the fresh water condenses out, and we collect the salt separately.”

By comparison, traditional evaporative desalination requires powerful blowers and high-pressure pumps that hog energy. Abbasi emphasizes that the new system, though it is a type of thermal desalination, does not distill water. Rather, it humidifies and dehumidifies air. That

How one Oregon State researcher is turning to the sea to quench a thirsty world

BY STEVE FRANDZEL

little distinction means far less energy consumption. In addition, most of the heat that powers the process is recovered, so very little energy is wasted.

Each desalination module will measure about the size of an office desk. Multiple units mounted onto vehicles could be transported to the point of consumption, as long as there’s access to saltwater. The water intake pumps will draw their power from onboard solar panels, while the desalination phase will run on heat from solar collectors.

“Once desalination starts, the process becomes entirely thermally driven,” Abbasi said. Output can be regulated by adding or removing modules.

The system will be capable of handling water with extremely high salinity — perhaps 30 percent or more. (For reference, seawater

contains about 3.5 percent salt.) Because the modules are able to process high concentrations of salt, the system could be used as the final stage at some existing desalination plants to wring out the last drops of water. Generally, desalination plants return some residual, highly concentrated brine to the ocean, which can devastate marine life. But Abbasi’s design will result in “zero liquid discharge,” meaning the only byproducts are fresh water and salt solids — most importantly magnesium chloride, the principal precursor to magnesium metal and a saleable commodity.

Abbasi predicts that a working prototype will be up and running in about three years.

In addition to the obvious impact that water shortages have on individuals and communities, they carry geopolitical ramifications as well. In 2012, the U.S. intelligence community issued a report on global water security that warned of political instability — even open conflict — arising from water scarcity in developing nations.

“Thousands of people die every month because they don’t have potable water. It’s a huge problem around the world,” Abbasi said. “I have this idea of gutting an old school bus and retrofitting it with desalination modules. Without any need to connect to the electrical grid, we could take it almost anywhere and make fresh water accessible to poor, drought-stricken areas of Northeastern Africa, for instance, where there’s lots of coastline and lots of sunlight for power. That’s my vision. That’s my goal.”

Assistant Professor Bahman Abbasi plans to build a more efficient, less expensive desalination system.

ROBOTS FLEX THEIR STUFFBY LETO SAPUNAR

After seeing the creations in Yigit Mengüç’s robotics lab at Oregon State University, you’d be forgiven for thinking you had wandered into a sci-fi film. Mengüç, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering has tentacle-like arms waving, synthetic snakes wiggling, and a machine hanging underwater that at first glance resembles a living octopus, all lending life to the lab. These aren’t sights most people expect when they think of robots. However, they are typical for researchers in Oregon State’s soft robotics lab. Here, on the cutting edge — although there isn’t a solid edge to be found on most of these creations — the group is finding revolutionary new ways to fabricate and design machines that look and feel more like flesh than concrete.

Often inspired by biomimicry — the design of practical systems modeled on living organisms — soft robotic researchers look for ways to make robots safer, cheaper and more versatile. Where a conventional rigid robot arm is difficult to program — and complex and expensive to fabricate — a soft robot has the potential to perform the same tasks with none of those limitations. This kind of design is particularly useful for delicate tasks like grasping coral samples on the seafloor or handing a glass of water to a person.

A 3D-printed soft robot can be made to extend a specific limb through selective pneumatic pressure.


7

Liquid metal and hollow chambers

Soft robots are made from silicone, similar to the kind used in soft phone cases or ice cube trays, and sometimes infused with liquid metal wires made of gallium — a rare metallic element that is liquid near room temperature and found as a trace element in coal and other minerals.

Researchers can control the motion of these soft robotic limbs by pressurizing internal channels. A tentacle with four pneumatic chambers within can flex in any direction depending on which hollow chamber is inflated. This principle also works to make soft robotic snakes, which can locomote in a variety of different snake “gaits” depending on how their air chambers are pressurized and depressurized.

Most current robots are designed to encounter specific environments — a wheeled machine for flat surfaces or a propeller-driven underwater craft. These robots can function spectacularly in the particular circumstances they’re designed for but can lack the versatility to do much else. Soft robots, in their elastic and dexterous forms, could offer significant improvements. For instance, many living snakes can swim as well as traverse flat, rocky, or sandy terrain. A soft robot made to mimic that motion, like the kind Oregon State doctoral student Callie Branyan is working on, can already move across flat surfaces as well as through granular materials like millet seeds, sand, and river rocks. It can also slither through a pipe and escape after being buried under the seeds. Branyan is tweaking the design proportions as well, in an attempt to build thinner, faster locomoting robots. “More like a garter snake than a python, quick and small,” she says.

Currently, the snake’s component pieces are made using a time-consuming molding process, but the lab is working on perfecting silicone 3D printing methods, allowing for any device configuration to be made cheaply and quickly. Osman Dogan Yirmibesoglu, another Oregon State doctoral candidate, is using a massive 3D printer that he built to create a meter-long, tentacle-like soft robotic arm. “It’s actually more powerful than an octopus arm,” he says, explaining that an octopus arm doesn’t do well outside of water, whereas this arm will be able to support its weight in air.

Although it won’t look much like a tentacle, the arm will be able to flex in any direction and hold its position.

The material used is, as Yirmibesoglu puts it, “radiation transparent,” meaning it doesn’t interact strongly with most types of high-intensity radiation. That could make it preferable for radiological testing or emergency response robots for nuclear incidents. In such situations, high versatility is required to face intense radiation, pass over irregular terrain, investigate underwater reactor pools, and operate controls.

To find out how the material responds to radiation, Yirmibesoglu printed samples of the silicone for Tyler Oshiro, an Oregon State nuclear engineering master’s student, who irradiated them in the university’s research reactor. Oshiro’s goal was to study how the mechanical properties of the silicone changed with high radiation exposure for his master’s thesis. He found the samples stiffened after exposure to vast amounts of radiation but deal well with it overall. Oshiro finds soft robotics interesting because the field is the epitome of finding different ways to approach traditional problems.

Researchers at Oregon State put nickel nanoparticles into the liquid metal, Galinstan, to thicken it into a paste with a consistency suitable for additive manufacturing.


8

Sensors and circuits

In the lab, Yirmibesoglu demonstrates how one of the sensors deforms when he presses it with his thumb. It stretches like an octopus arm but pops back into place as soon as it’s released.

As the material stretches, the small channels inside containing liquid metal become warped, making the wires thinner or thicker as the material flexes in different ways. Because wires of different thicknesses vary in electrical resistance, a computer hooked up to the electrodes can measure this value and determine how distorted the sensor is from its normal shape. In this way, a robot can know the location of each of its limbs. The technology has promise in other avenues, like wearable electronics. The sensors are cheap, relatively lightweight, and versatile.

Building a silicone structure with internal channels of liquid metal isn’t easy. Previously, it required a complicated, multistage molding and gluing process. However, the lab has recently devised a way to 3D print freestanding liquid metal and hopes to build a dual-headed printer, capable of constructing both the silicone body of

a robot limb or sensor and its liquid metal veins simultaneously.

Oregon State doctoral student Nick Bira is working on figuring out the design for “soft valves” to precisely control airflow used to activate the limbs of a small octopus robot. The tricky part is building smart pressure controls that don’t rely on conventional electrical valves to achieve the same end. Elegant design here is key. He says the lab space reached “peak awe factor” a few months ago when, in addition to the usual high-ceilinged workspace filled with 3D printers, squishy limbs, actuators, and aquatic prototypes were floating in an underwater testing tank.

New and growing

Back in his lab, Mengüç puts one inspiring animal center stage writing, “Many of my colleagues and I have chosen to take inspiration from one of the most alien mascots: the octopus. As soon as we take as our goal technology that is entirely soft, squishy and stretchy, yet dynamic, agile and intensely intelligent, we are forced to re-evaluate what is possible.”

In 2017, Mengüç also wrote an overview piece on the field of soft robotics, published in American Scientist. He describes the many avenues of a new and growing field, such as electrorheological fluids — substances that can change between liquid and solid based on an electric field — and the possibility of introducing artificial muscles into future robots. Among already existing soft robot technologies, he lists other applications including maritime robots for inspection and welding; stealthy naval surveillance robots; safer industrial manufacturing robots; surgical tools like endoscopes; and prosthetics or orthotics. The future possibilities all have been inspired by a creature that has existed for more than 100 million of years — the octopus.

Javier Calvo-Amodio, associate professor of industrial engineering, focuses on understanding how to design and manage systemic changes in large organizations or companies.

His research group is partnering with Boeing Portland to monitor the company’s efforts to build a culture of continuous improvement. Traditionally, researchers who study continuous improvement models are interested in discovering best practices for doing a particular kind of work and then replicating those practices elsewhere.

But with Boeing, Calvo’s group is taking a different approach. They’re not just interested whether something works; they want to understand why it works. By developing measurable, repeatable, provable theories about how organizational change works, they can then apply those theories to other organizations.

By designing a communication system and team maturity model, it is then possible to control the rate of change in the organization by identifying points where deviations occur.

FOUR JOIN THE MIME FACULTYThis year, the School of MIME welcomed four new members to our faculty: Joe Davidson, assistant professor of robotics; Naomi Fitter, assistant professor of robotics; Ean Ng, assistant professor of industrial engineering; and Ali Tabei, assistant professor of advanced manufacturing. They join our already robust group of researchers and teachers, and the MIME faculty now numbers 57.

Joe DavidsonDavidson works to design and build integrated robotic systems for labor-intensive applications requiring physical interaction in unstructured environments. His previous work includes robotic harvesting of fresh market apples and actuator design for robotic rehabilitation of neurologically impaired patients. Davidson received his B.S. from the United States Military Academy in 2004. After serving in the military for five years, he worked as a project manager for the CH2M HILL Plateau Remediation Company at Hanford, WA from 2009 to 2012. He received his M.S. and Ph.D. from Washington State University and was a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2016 to 2018.

Naomi FitterFitter researches physical human-robot interaction, socially assistive robotics, haptics, robots in education, and robotic entertainers. Her past degrees include a B.S. and B.A. in mechanical engineering and Spanish from the University of Cincinnati and an M.S.E. and Ph.D. in robotics and mechanical engineering and applied mechanics from the University of Pennsylvania. She completed her doctoral work in the GRASP Laboratory’s Haptics Group and was a postdoctoral scholar in the University of Southern California Interaction Lab from 2017 to 2018. Her past experiences in industry include fluid modeling and simulation for the Procter & Gamble Oral Care Division and wearable health monitoring device development and evaluation for Microsoft Research. As a member of the Collaborative Robotics and Intelligent Systems (CoRIS) Institute, Fitter aims to equip robots with the ability to engage and empower people in interactions from playful high-fives to challenging physical therapy routines.

Ean NgNg’s research interests lie at the intersection of engineering economics, performance measurement, and decision theory. Her research focuses on measuring factors that are crucial to organizational improvement but have been traditionally deemed unmeasurable, such as the cost of safety in a workplace, quantifying improvement strategy outcomes, and predicting project failures and managing project termination. Prior to her current position, Ean was the program director for the online engineering management program since the program inception and a senior researcher at Oregon State. Her previous funded research includes economic modeling of the use of advanced technologies (mobile LiDAR, e-Construction, etc.) in roadway construction and maintenance, economic modeling of a continuing education provider’s business model, assessment of continuous improvement effort in manufacturing organization, and quantifying the relationship between safety culture and the actual safety outcome in high risk workplaces.

Ali TabeiTabei’s interdisciplinary research is focused on understanding the mutual interactions between manufacturing process parameters and materials’ microstructure and properties. The laboratory of materials and manufacturing utilizes both computational methods and experimental analyses to investigate the manufacturing and materials correlations. He earned his B.S. and M.S. in Materials Science and Engineering, and in 2015 received a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology. Afterward, he continued academic research as a post-doctoral fellow for one year. Later, he served as a senior research engineer at the ATI Corporation, working on developing manufacturing routes and new high-temperature alloys. In his early research career, Tabei investigated the synthesis of nanomaterials and semiconductor processing methods. His most recent works link manufacturing and materials science via computational and experimental tools.

MARCHING TO THE BEAT WITH MANY DRUMMERS

Robyn Wells (second from the left), mechanical engineering major and Honors College student.

BY STEVE FRANDZEL

Next time you cheer on the Oregon State marching band as it lays down one of its precise, dynamic halftime drills, try to spot Robyn Wells. She’ll be playing one of the basses in the drumline — the beating heart that sets the foot-tapping rhythm for the 270-strong corps.

It’s hard work that requires stamina, steady concentration, and constant awareness. Practices are frequent and long. Game days are much longer, and a single misstep in the middle of a performance can cascade into a misadventure witnessed by thousands.

Wells wouldn’t have it any other way, because the refuge of music rejuvenates her. A mechanical engineering major and Honors College student, Wells has managed to merge her band activity with her academic program.

“For my Honors College thesis, I’m measuring how experience and role affect the workload for a member of the band, both physically and cognitively,” Wells said. “I’m combining two topics that I’m passionate about.”


13

In the first part of the project, 70 bandmates completed surveys to describe their workload and physical discomfort before and after a home game. With the help of Xinhui Zhu, assistant professor of industrial engineering, Wells submitted a conference paper about her work to the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. That paper is currently under review, and a second is in the works.

In the upcoming lab phase of the study, designed and planned by Wells, trumpet and sousaphone players will march in place and perform both easy and difficult songs while sensors record their heart rates and muscle activity.

“That will give us quantitative data to add to the qualitative data,” Wells said.

A graduate student will supervise the lab work, because Wells will be working at Veris Industries in Tualatin, Oregon – the second internship she landed through the MECOP program. Her first, in 2017, was in the process engineering department at Silicon Forest Electronics in Vancouver, Washington.

Wells grew up in a Navy family. She has lived in Japan and Florida, and in Papillion, Nebraska, where she went to high school and played the bassoon, marimba, and vibraphone in the marching band “pit,” or stationary percussion section.

“I’m grateful that I had the opportunity to see different places,” she said. “I learned about different cultures, which gave me an open mind about diversity among people.”

She entered Oregon State as an Honors College student and became an Honors College ambassador and a mentor for incoming students. During her first two years on campus, Wells played

the cymbals before switching to the bass drum, and she became a section leader as well. Wells also plays the bassoon with the campus band when time permits. Through it all, she has seen some notable changes: As a first-year student, Wells was one of only two women on the 23-person drumline; last season, women accounted for a quarter of the 32-person cadre.

The time commitment for her two internships means that Wells will spend a fifth year at Oregon State, which means she’ll also get a fifth season marching with the band.

“The band, and music in general, is a huge creative outlet for me,” she said. “I can’t do engineering work 24/7. If I don’t play music, I’m not as sharp and I feel down. And playing the drum is very satisfying when you’re having a bad day.”

It’s not just about the music, though, but commitment to a greater purpose. Every now

and then, Wells says, there’s an unforgettable confluence of music, motion, and emotion.

“It happens when we all know we’re producing an amazing sound and an amazing visual, and it’s just an honor to be a part of it all,” she said.

One such moment materialized when the band played “Death of a Bachelor” during the halftime show at last season’s Stanford game.

“It was a really powerful show with a lot of bass drum runs. It was one of those chills-up-your-spine moments, and we could feel the energy of the crowd,” Wells said. “We’re all working together toward a single goal, and it’s an amazing feeling to be a part of something much bigger than yourself. Practices and rehearsals get long and tiring — sometimes frustrating — but in the end, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.”

Robyn Wells is combining her two passions,

music and engineering.

HONORING OUTSTANDING ALUMNIIn 1998, the College introduced the annual Oregon Stater Awards to honor outstanding alumni and friends for their contributions to the engineering profession and to Oregon State University. These are the 2018 winners from MIME:

Jill Lewis is passionate about advancing space flight and bringing manned space flight back to the United States. Through her work at SpaceX, a private aerospace company that designs, manufactures, and launches rockets and spacecraft, she and her colleagues are working hard to do just that.

As a structures certification engineer, Lewis is a technical liaison between SpaceX and its biggest customers: NASA’s Commercial Crew space flight groups and the U.S. Air Force. Lewis and her team verify that SpaceX’s Falcon launch vehicles and Dragon spacecraft meet all internal design, testing, and analysis requirements. Through detailed presentations, she also ensures that clients understand that in-depth structural knowledge.

Lewis appreciates the theoretical and practical foundation she received from her coursework at Oregon State, and the student clubs enabled her to aggregate her skill set. “The hands-on approach really helped me once I got into industry,” Lewis said, “and I can’t stress how vital the Global Formula Racing team was to my career trajectory. It led to the Formula Student competitions where I was introduced to composites and composite manufacturing. That experience helped me land my first job at SpaceX as a production engineer.”

Lewis says SpaceX has provided her many opportunities to prove and challenge her abilities as an engineer, and she believes she’s been a good steward. “Getting to work with NASA has been incredible,” Lewis said. “I think it was Sir Isaac Newton who said, ‘If I have seen further, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants’ — and that’s how I feel every time I talk to the NASA team. Their knowledge, their successes and failures, directly influence the work we do. Having them by our side and on our team is an incredible experience.”

Randy Worsech is a business architect for an aerospace company. His primary role is to connect strategy with the design of the business’s operations, such as its technologies, processes, information systems, and data.

His career path started in high school in the late ’70s. He could see the growing importance of technology as it made inroads into the cars we drove, classrooms where we learned, products we used to entertain ourselves, and the means by which we solved complex challenges. He saw this growing trend as a path to a viable career and enrolled in a junior college, later transferring to Oregon State as a mechanical engineering student.

“While at OSU, I realized my colleagues were very adept at digging deep into a particular subject,” Worsech said. “I liked understanding a wide breadth of subjects and the value of each to a business.” Consequently, he realized his niche would be bridging the gap between the two perspectives. He augmented his Oregon State engineering degree with an MBA from Seattle University shortly after graduation.

Although his career started in engineering, he quickly transitioned to successive positions in information technology before occupying the niche he originally envisioned while at Oregon State. “Driving changes in an organization is like changing the course of a really large ocean liner. It’s not easy, but it can be done,” Worsech said. “It takes having the right purpose, technology, vision, perseverance, skills, and knowledge, and most importantly the ability to align the hearts and minds of individuals.”

He credits much of his success to Oregon State, where he learned to collaborate effectively with individuals who hold diverse perspectives, to understand that new challenges lead to personal growth, and that one must be diligent in growing one’s knowledge because the pace of change is always increasing.

Heidi Wolfe says there are two kinds of people at Boeing: airplane fanatics and those who end up there by accident.

“Aerospace was not on my radar,” she said.

After completing a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Oregon State in 2006, Wolfe was set to begin a graduate program in biomechanics at UC Davis, when she abruptly changed course and moved to South Carolina.

Hired through an employment agency, her first job after graduation was providing administrative support to Global Aeronautica, a newly formed joint venture supporting the Boeing 787 global supply chain. Within a month, she was working as a manufacturing engineer and also tasked with writing operating procedures for other employees in her organization.

Wolfe moved to Boeing shortly thereafter and completed a two-year international assignment in Italy and a Master of Science in Program Management from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Five years into her career, she accepted her first management role at the company.

Wolfe credits her experiences at Global Aeronautica for enabling her to develop the leadership skills necessary to progress into a management role so early in her Boeing career. She has held numerous management positions and is currently chief of staff to the vice president of the Washington Design Center for Boeing Commercial Airplanes.

Wolfe re-engaged with Oregon State through Boeing’s University Relations team and for several years has been active in recruiting trips and organizing opportunities for students to tour the Boeing factory.

“Sharing my own career path and experiences at Boeing with OSU students is one of the best parts of my job,” she said.
