    • Design Transfer as a Lever for Accelerated Medical Device Innovation: A Case-Based Mapping Approach 

      Magzoub, Amna Ahmed Eltayeb (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      In highly regulated industries such as medical devices, accelerating New Product Development (NPD) without compromising quality or compliance is a persistent challenge. This thesis investigates the design transfer process, ...
    • The Effect of the Solar Cycle on Satellite Orbital Lifetime 

      Lisy, Celvi A. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      The lifetime of a satellite in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) is affected by the 11-year solar cycle. At a fixed altitude, increasing solar activity increases atmospheric density which leads to an increase in drag, and a decrease ...
    • Electrical Diagnostics for Nanosecond PulsedDischarge Reactors 

      Rao, Sankarsh R. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      This thesis provides an introduction to transmission line theory (telegrapher’s equations) as the mathematical background needed to correctly perform and interpret electrical measurements in nanosecond pulsed discharge ...
