Student Research Projects
| Title | Name | Summary | Advisor | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Robot therapist for assisting in at-home rehabilitation of shoulder surgery patients | Mahsa Alborz | This study uses Finite Element Analysis to better understand the effect of initial out-of-flatness on girder yield-strength. This extends previous studies to include co-existing imperfections in webs and bottom flanges as well as both 50 ksi and 100 ksi yield steel plate. Code adoption of bf/200 is recommended for the bottom flange out-of-flatness tolerance, where bf represents the bottom flange width, based on this research and previous studies. | Dr. Chung-Hyuk Park |
| 2 | Audio and speech analysis to determine emotional states of children with autism spectrum disorder for therapeutic use | Paul Azzi (ECE) & Conor Sheridan (CS) | While previous research has been conducted to find effective means of determining emotional states of speakers, relatively few efforts have been reported on determining emotional states of users with disorders that affect emotional expressions, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). | Dr. Chung-Hyuk Park |
| 3 | Motion learning for emotional interaction and imitation of children with autism spectrum disorder | Rachael Bevill & Samuel Cowin (ECE) | Children with autism sometimes have difficulty expressing their emotions, and understanding the emotions of others. Both robotic and imitation therapies have been found to be effective in improving their engagement and interaction skills. | Dr. Chung-Hyuk Park |
| 4 | Hidden bleed ultrasound tissue phantom | Bilis, Zoe, Allison Hansen, Shannon Kirkland, Dr. Babak Sarani & Rachel Schwartz | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, qui labores interesset an, vis cu vero accusam, ius inimicus elaboraret in. Qui at dicit persecuti complectitur. Cum sint vero ne, est no impedit blandit. Usu solum mundi cu. | Dr. Vesna Zderic |
| 5 | Differential electrophysiological effects of β1- vs β2- adrenergic stimulation in the isolated canine right atrium | Brennan, Jaclyn & Sofian Obaid | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, qui labores interesset an, vis cu vero accusam, ius inimicus elaboraret in. Qui at dicit persecuti complectitur. Cum sint vero ne, est no impedit blandit. Usu solum mundi cu. | Dr. Igor Efimov |
| 6 | Three-dimensional printing of lab equipment: a case study in cardiac electrophysiology | Cathey, Brianna | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, qui labores interesset an, vis cu vero accusam, ius inimicus elaboraret in. Qui at dicit persecuti complectitur. Cum sint vero ne, est no impedit blandit. Usu solum mundi cu. | Dr. Igor Efimov |

Qui at dicit persecuti complectitur. Cum sint vero ne, est no impedit blandit. Usu solum mundi cu. | Dr. Chung-Hyuk Park |
| 8 | Contractile dysfunction and VF during sodium-calcium exchanger inhibition in hearts from TAC rats | Dwyer, Mary Kate & Sarah Kuzmiak-Glancy | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, qui labores interesset an, vis cu vero accusam, ius inimicus elaboraret in. Qui at dicit persecuti complectitur. Cum sint vero ne, est no impedit blandit. Usu solum mundi cu. | Dr. Matthew Kay |

Keynote Speaker
Manny entered the military in 1984 as a private in the Field Artillery Corps and later changed his Military Occupation Specialties (MOS) to Military Police. After nine years as an enlisted soldier and attaining the rank of Staff Sergeant, he attended the Officer Candidate Course at Fort Benning, Georgia, where he attained his commission as a Military Police Officer. Upon completion of his company command time at Fort Eustis, Virginia, Manny transferred to the Acquisition Corps, where he held jobs at Operation Test Command, Fort Hood, Texas, and at the Army Test & Evaluation Command (ATEC), Alexandria, VA, as the aide-de-camp to the commanding general (ATEC). He ended his career at the Army Chief Information Office working in the Army Architecture Integration Cell. He is a certified acquisition professional and is also a Fort Bragg certified Jump Master, with more than 75 jumps.
Manny holds a bachelor of arts degree in finance from Virginia State University, a master of science degree in computer science from GW, and a graduate certificate in security and information assurance.
Manny’s current vision for RiVidium is based on the company’s tag line, “The Missing Element in Technology,” and is called Elementals Vision. The Elementals Vision will see RiVidium moving most of its information technology capabilities to the Cloud while targeting the cyber war that is sure to come in the next years.
