Year 4 Project Exhibition

I was checking my email late night and noticed that I received a marking script for Year 4 Mechanical students' Group Design Project. Oh ya, it's their final project exhibition the next day and all research student and assistant will be invigilating. Stress... all of them were my classmates.

Printed out the score sheet:

Basically my job is to go around every group and ask them to present their work, then give them marks accordingly (sounds easy). The first group designed a intake manifold which improves the horsepower of a car by almost 10%, just by playing with the mechanical design. Another group did a car tow that can be equipped on a bike.

Another one is easy and brilliant, a one handed pepper grinder, both manual and automatic. The prototype actually looks cute. Next, we had a group that design a program controller which will tell you whether your transfer function works by plugging in the parameters.

Then, there's an amphibian bicycle, by contacting the propeller to the wheel, cycling the bike is also pedaling on water. Finally, it's Nelson's group, which designed an more environment friendly air-cond (low power consumption). Look at their sponsors, cool.

Amphibian bicycle and air-cond:

In just a blink of eye, classes for this academic year have ended (not like I'm affected). Thanks God for bringing us through these troubles and trials. May You continue to uphold us as we continue the fight, and remind us the true reason why are all of us doing this. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
