$58,500.00
Advanced thermoplastic composites for light weight/high speed electric motors
FY 2024-25
Summary
The proposed project aims to develop new, lightweight materials for electric motors by using advanced manufacturing techniques. Students and researchers will work closely with engineers from Dana to design, test, and refine these materials, which will help make the motors more efficient and cost-effective. Dana will benefit by gaining access to innovative technologies that can improve their products, making them more competitive in the growing market for electric vehicles. This collaboration will also provide valuable hands-on experience for the students, preparing them for future careers in engineering.
