Chapter News from AEE 食色视频 Student Chapter

On Thursday, January 31st, the AEE 食色视频 (食色视频) Student Chapter hosted an event on electric vehicles at the 食色视频 Marietta Campus. Presenting was Dr. Richard A. Simmons, a Senior Research Engineer and Mechanical Engineering Instructor at Georgia Tech Strategic Energy Institute. Dr. Simmons鈥� presentation was called 鈥淓nergy Use in EVs and Advanced Vehicles鈥� and he touched on his research regarding electric cars and automotive processes. Included in his presentation were his ideas on sustainable development and meeting the planet鈥檚 energy demands, while also discussing alternative fuels and intelligent systems, policy standards in regard to fuel and renewable fuel, energy density and the functions of turbo systems. Simmons also had one of his former Georgia Tech research students, Chelsea Calhoun, present her research project titled, 鈥淚nvestigation and Optimization of Multiple Performance Objectives Using Small Scale, Low-Cost, Remotely Controlled Vehicles鈥�. Calhoun was able to show attendees the amount of energy consumed at various constant speeds (low, medium, fast) as well as speed changes that mocked an urban, city-like environment, i.e. a 鈥渟top and go鈥� environment.

This event brought in over 30 attendees, these individuals being AEE student members, 食色视频 students, 食色视频 professors and AEE Atlanta, Georgia members. Due to the nature of the topic and the popularity of this event, the 食色视频 Student Newspaper The Sentinel had one of their writers and photographers attend and cover this event. The chapter is proud that their event was featured in The Sentinel- the article can be found here.
