dc.description.abstract | In the summer of 2002 I was employed by the University of Michigan Research
Institute, Biosciences division to create a program that would aid the process of
accelerometer calibration for transducers used in crash testing. At that time,
accelerometer calibrations were done in one of two ways: they were either expensively
sent to a professional calibration service, or done manually using a pendulum-like drop
tower developed by UMTRI. The resulting Java executable, later dubbed TACT (TACT
Accelerometer Calibration Tool), automated this second cheaper alternative. This paper is
a collaboration of my research surrounding TACT, which includes object-oriented
languages, object-oriented programming, and object-oriented design patterns. | en_US |
