A student project for AHSE1500: Foundations of Business and Entrepreneurship (taught in Spring 2006) featuring an Olin College themed tradable card game. It consists of cards of students, professors, locations, and events.
This record contains the Final Report for the project and scanned images of all the cards in the game.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography is a procedure in which an endoscopic device is used to diagnose and treat gastrointestinal diseases in the pancreaticobiliary system. This year's Boston Scientific SCOPE team is continuing a project from Spring 2006 that aims to improve a device used in these surgeries by addressing a known usability issue. The project will involve mechanical design, component testing, materials selection and analysis, and manufacturing. The team will brainstorm and rough prototype devices as well as review concepts generated by last year's team. They will then use modeling, prototyping and testing methods to assess the effectiveness of the final design. The main goal of the project is to provide Boston Scientific with a final detailed design of a tested, prototyped mechanism that meets the needs of their customers.
The Olin Raytheon/WHOI SCOPE team is assisting WHOI in the buoy design effort by writing software tools for managing the energy budget of a deployed buoy. Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) scientists are constructing buoys for the Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI), an NSF funded program that will construct a network of buoys for monitoring physical, chemical, geological, and biological variables in the ocean and on the sea floor. The buoys in development for the OOI by WHOI will be expected to operate for 25 years with annual maintenance. Power for an array of reprogrammable sensors will be dependent on a combination of solar and wind power generation and an on-board fuel cell replenished during the annual maintenance.
