Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
Conducted risk reduction test to determine stiffness after knowing our applied force and range of motion.
Accomplishments from Previous Week
Met with sponsor to record a video/took pictures at multiple angles to measure a skier's ideal range of motion.
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
Establish which component each person is focusing on for the individual component analysis
Finish 3D models by week 2
Come up with Preliminary Bill of Materials
Sponsor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Look into aerated rubber and contact Professor Cai at UCSD
Action taken: Emailed Professor Cai to initiate conversation; research done in specialty rubbers
Holding cuff in place in z-direction
Action taken: Modified design to hold cuff in place; better explanation and description of design
Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Show movement in xyz with CAD
Show components with CAD
CAD model modification to be able to show movement in assembly
Comments from Other Students in the Class (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Look into other stiff boots for other sports.
Looked up motor bike boots (SIDI boot)
Looked up new ski boot design (Apex boot)
Risks and Areas of Concern
Elastic being able to provide enough resistance
No performance degrade in cold weather
Resources or Information Required but not Available
Understand school 3D printer material properties
Schedule
Moved 3D printed prototype up to week 2
Talk more with Professor Cai about aerated rubber
Rest of schedule same as before
Budget (list amount spent and amount remaining)
No change from last week
Progress on Report and Webpage
Updated weekly reports as we go.
