The cost optimized designs were simple and actionable, and all designchoices were tied to experimental data, mathematical modeling, and reasonable approximations.The engineering design process was followed, and both teams considered sustainability factors intheir design generation. Each student collaborated effectively with their other team members, andtheir technical
