Research

Major research interests are in the area of product design, focusing on the development of new products and product sustainability. Current research products include development of protocols for the dynamic testing of recycled and mixed thermoplastic resins, and co-injection molding of recycled and virgin resins. Current design projects are in the areas of ergonomic helm design for power boats, small-scale water purification for agricultural applications, and a systems engineering web site for NASA.
