Andrew T.

  • Wheel hub for TQ motor config adjustments

  • Working on ->

  • New arm pcb integration design

  • Connector hub for TQ motor configuration

Andrew Z.

 

 

Alaina

  • Welding research 

  • Hub attachment 

  • 4-Wheel CAD

  • Hub attachment 

  • Science camera mount

Asha

  • Training presentation

  • Science CAD fixes (elevator height etc)

  • Could probably use more tasks

Caleb

  • Looked into Inv Kin

  • Gimbal readjustments (fastener changes)

  • Set up ansys

  • Look into matlab modelling? (not sure if this is more of a software/firmware thing)

  • Science motors

Tony

 

  • Been working on flashing hall-effect sensor branch firmware onto board

Drivetrain work

  • Define drivetrain constraints and requirements in system doc

  • Finish reading unidirectional composite material properties, estimate structural member sizes

  • Design a 3-D printed motor housing

  • Finish alternate design using ILM 115X25

  • Source and purchase appropriate power resistor for Odrive

  • Flash Odrive firmware st-link on disco board; also probably need to configure based on the encoder being used

  • Tire energy methods FBD

 

Claw re-work

  • Allen key attachment friction-torque calculation

  • Finish flexure design

 

Documentation / Support work

  • Editing TQ meeting document so it’s readable for everyone

  • Start new ordering sheet; add good slip-ring to ordering sheet

 

Misc work

  • Set-up Solidworks PDM / SQL 2014

  • Make a typical manufacturing tolerances table

Cole

  • E-box connector panel

  • 3D-Printing research

  • Figuring out topology optimization “smart infill”

  • Finalize e-box connector panel  

    • Meet w/ david → Waiting on kyle from electrical? 

      • Tony: Check to see if this is finished / progress.

  • 3D-Printing

    • Print & test some parts

Emily

  • Sent welding information to Alaina

  • Rough PCB plan for science

  • Finalize science PCB plan & put into CAD

  • Do stress/strain research?

    • Tony: Send notes on Shigley's

David 

  • Redesigned bottom plate for science to have mount for PiCam

  • Experimented with topological optimization and generative design for PiCam bracket mount

  • Researched alternative materials for e-box

  • Have meeting with Cole about e-box connectors

  • Finalize layout for e-box components

  • Re-design bottom plate for science to have mount for science

  • Looking for more work (drivetrain/looking for something more technical) - hopefully something I can finish by September
