Students Earn High Marks in a Return to Engineering Competitions |
Students from NJIT’s Newark College of Engineering have earned first and third place recognitions across steel bridge and concrete canoe events held for regional competitions.
The steel bridge regional competition made its return for the first time since COVID restrictions canceled the event in 2020 and 2021, and NJIT took home first place in the metropolitan region in the Construction Speed and Stiffness categories.
Team members include Kayden Bevando, Pedro Bandeira, Michael Brusca, Diego Cabrera, Vincent Campanella, Joel Florim, Thomas Hickey, Wairagu Kariba, Julien Kempf, Jorge Lucero, Liam Stobert and Joe Vitale. Additional support came from alumni including Thomas Nadolsky, Zachary Keator, Rocco Cioffi and Niyam Shah.
For stiffness, a 2,500-pound load is applied and an aggregate deflection is measured. NJIT’s bridge deflection measured approximately .3 inches over a roughly 20-foot span, beating out its next closest competitor by nearly 25%. For construction speed, which measures the total time for the bridge to be constructed, the team assembled its bridge in 13 minutes, over four minutes faster than the next closest competitor.
|
“I was determined to finally participate in the competition since it was canceled during my sophomore and junior years,” said Kayden Bevando, a senior civil engineering major.
The bridge had steel donated from Acrow Bridge out of Parsippany, and fittings fabricated by Xometry. Additionally, parts such as the jig plate and jig fitting were fabricated in NJIT’s Makerspace, with the construction and assembly taking place in the Civil Engineering Lab. Students had the opportunity to learn how to operate and perfect the use of industry-grade machinery and gain valuable experience with welding and fabrication.
Also making its return to in-person competition was the American Society of Civil Engineers Concrete Canoe event. Concrete Canoe provides students a unique opportunity to gain hands-on practical experience while testing their skills with concrete mix designs and project management challenges. NJIT’s entry, captained by Elizabeth Mundkowsky and Samantha Arcilla, came in third place in the Metropolitan Region.

Solar Panel Tree
Capstone Project
|
Erin Foody and Ofek Nahar, civil engineering seniors, and Manav Guzraty and Justin Harrington, mechanical engineering students collaborated to address the current energy crisis and seek affordable solutions under the supervision of Professor Simon Shim and Professor Harry Kountouras. At the early brainstorming meetings, the team set the target topic to be achievable within the spring semester. When the team chose solar energy as a topic, the ideation process got expedited and ended with a tree structure to hang the solar panels that was capable of rotating toward the sun thoughout the season. Indeed, this divided the scope of work well into the static tree structure by civil engineering and the kinetic system by mechanical engineering.
The overall engineering workflow led with geometry definition using Rhino/ Grasshopper design and a parametric plug-in tool, designed by finite element software SAP2000 for the tree structure and engineered by Solidworks for the gear system.
During the semester, students and professors met every other week and exchanged ideas, researched existing solar panel systems collaboratively and coordinated their scope of work for a final report and presentation successfully. As most solar panel tree works are new to students, they had to delve through self-education for various items and build their creative engineering ability, while adding a new lens of engineering. There is no doubt that a capstone project with peers from other fields is a second-to-none experience and also helps boost engineering curiosity and the ability to seek a solution collaboratively.

Harnessing the Power of Tiny Bubbles |
Like seltzer-swilling humans, plants are also partial to bubbly libations. Environmental engineer Wen Zhang hopes to exploit this predilection to design efficient irrigation systems. “One of our goals is to reduce the amount of synthetic fertilizer needed to grow crop plants by applying it more precisely. We think nanobubbles may help us,” says Zhang, director of NJIT’s Sustainable Environmental Nanotechnology and Nanointerfaces Laboratory. “With their negative charge, they attract positively charged mineral nutrients in the soil such as calcium and potassium, mobilizing them and promoting their uptake. They also stimulate plant genes that control the production of growth hormones.”
To meet growing food demand, global fertilizer use continues to expand. However, these methods have long proved inefficient: The absorption ratio of nitrogen fertilizer in a harvested crop can be as low as 40-50%, with the residual lost through surface runoff that pollutes streams and lakes. Despite this, plants become “addicted” to chemical fertilizers and can’t grow without seasonal applications, says Zhang, whose research is supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
In a recent laboratory test, he and another engineer, Taha Marhaba, soaked soil-planted fava seeds with successive batches of water containing ultrafine bubbles, between 200 and 500 nanometers in diameter, made with gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The results were encouraging: Germination rates increased between 6% and 25% compared to controls. In another experiment, they increased the size of leaves and stems on different vegetable plants by 10-50% by watering them with nitrogen nanobubbles.
