UB undergraduate Paolo Bourdeau plans to use the research he conducted during a 10-week Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) research internship last summer to make his home country of Haiti more resilient to hurricanes.
As a summer research project, Adrian Denner, an undergraduate in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, set out to scavenge useful energy from the vibrations of a thermoacoustic resonator.
The UB Center for Industrial Effectiveness (TCIE), the business outreach center of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, conceived the course and directed production.
