ME 4000 Project Introduction Presentation: SMA Array Controls Team Overview

This presentation outlines the ME 4000 project undertaken by the SMA Array Controls Team, highlighting key elements such as the project schedule, budget, and benchmarking of critical components. It details milestones including the Critical Function Prototype due on November 8th, thermocouple attachment by December 9th, and the thermal recycling system prototype by February 9th. Various sensors like linear potentiometers and LVDTs are evaluated for their benefits and drawbacks. The team members and advisor are also presented for contact reference.
