Crash Test Dummy Success!
Posted on Tuesday, April 8th, 2014
Algonquin College Mechanical Engineering Technology students (Jason Pell, Andrei Potapov, Micheal Hii, Neil Fevrier, Kitiphong Norasith, Scott Hall and Ali Khalladi), overseen by Prof. Sandra Brancatelli, joined the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering team from Carleton University after the project had already started and they quickly established themselves as not only fully-contributing members but took leadership roles in many situations. They demonstrated to the students and professors at Carleton University (as well as the public through the media) just what Algonquin Mechanical Engineering Technology students can do!
The Crash Test Dummy project has been developed over the past three years. This year was the first time in three years that the Crash Test Dummy was hit by the car on the first trial run. There to capture the event were a few media outlets. Please see the following links to this event:

This project was displayed at Applied Research Day 12.0 on Friday April 11th, 2014. Congratulations to the team on a very successful launch!
