faithfully follow the flow, conditionsthat are more easily met in water than air. This means that experiments on the same flowphenomenon can be performed more easily and inexpensively in a water tunnel than in a windtunnel. Still, the flow similarity between them means that the techniques used in each remain thesame.The senior capstone project discussed herein has two main goals: to provide a hands-on, design-based experience within fluid mechanics that integrates research into the classroom, and to createa functional water tunnel that can be used in both classroom demonstrations and in small-scaleresearch in an integrated way.Course StructureSenior design projects at The Citadel are created as part of a two-semester senior capstone coursesequence

. His educational background is in manufacturing with an emphasis on mechatronics. In addition to his many years of industrial experience, he has taught many different engineering and technology courses at undergraduate and graduate levels. His tremendous re- search experience in manufacturing includes environmentally conscious manufacturing, Internet based robotics, and Web based quality. In the past years, he has been involved in sustainable manufacturing for maximizing energy and material recovery while minimizing environmental impact.Prof. Lucian Ionel Cioca, Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu Lucian Ionel CIOCA received the M.Sc. in Machine Tools (1993) and B.Sc. in Occupational Safety, Health and Work Relations

Kornberg is an MIT sophomore majoring in Mechanical and Ocean Engineering. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Beyond the Sea PerchAbstractThe Sea Perch ROV has long been used to introduce students to marine robotics and to oceanengineering in general. The vehicle is manually operated with three switches controlling itsthree thrusters. We have enhanced the Sea Perch in two ways, both designed to increase theeducational utility of the vehicle. First, we developed a flight recorder that sits in the Sea Perchpayload bay and records 3-axis orientation, acceleration and rotation. Second, we developed anonboard computer for the Sea Perch that enables students to greatly expand
