2010 UNDERGRADUATE
Research SYMPOSIUM

On August 10, 2010, a strong tradition of undergraduate research continued as students presented the results of their work. Each symposium session consisted of brief introductions of the students' work, followed a poster session.

At the end of the day, five winners of top poster awards left with $100 checks and were on their way to present their work at the University’s Undergraduate Research Symposium the next day.

Winners of the best poster awards were as follows:

Kevin Ayotte (not pictured)—Penetration Mechanics of UHM WPE Soft Laminates

Matthew Grusenmeyer—Physical Validation of Bonded Metal Attachment Points and Development
of FEA Method for CAE Attachment Analysis

Sarah Friedrich—Processing and Electrical Characterization of Nano-Composites for Damage Detection of Composite Joints

Zach Melrose—Processing and Characterization of Nanotube-Reinforced Adhesives for In-Situ
Damage Sensing Applications

Maxime Dempah—Sized Nanocomposites: Processing and Characterization
