31 Industry-Sponsored Capstone Projects and Sponsors
I am delighted to share with you the creative, scholarly achievements of the Me-chanical Engineering faculty members and their students for the 2015-2016 calen-dar years.
During the biennium, our 19 tenured and tenure-track faculty members authored or co-authored 130 refereed journal articles, books, and book chapters. Six U.S. patents were secured. Overall, the faculty held 27 editorial positions in service to a variety of journals and other publications. Also during the biennium, our scholarly work was cited over 12,000 times (source: Google Scholar), reflecting the impact of our research worldwide.
As testament to our commitment to partner with industry, our faculty members have advised hundreds of undergraduate students on 44 industry-sponsored capstone projects over the past two years. We are proud to recognize our capstone students in this Report, and thank the visionary sponsors with whom they have worked on their major design experiences.
Our inaugural Mechanical Engineering Biennial Report was presented in 2013, cov-ering achievements in the 2011-2012 calendar years. In the four years since the first Report, the number of journal articles, books, and book chapters published by the faculty on an annual basis has doubled, while the number of patents received annu-ally has increased six-fold. Our editorial positions have increased by 150%, and the annual citations of our research have grown by 70%. The number of industry-spon-sored capstone projects over the respective biennia has expanded from 7 to 44.
We look forward to sharing more exciting achievements in the future. I hope you enjoy reading about the individual contributions of our faculty members in the pages that follow.
