Energy & Consistency Improvements
Date: 4/5/2017
Time: 4:00 pm (Face-to-Face)
Members Present: Blake Kanoy, Ashwin Rajgopal, Daniel Fahmi and Alex Beutel
Topics Discussed: Energy efficiency and dependability of different codes
Objective:
The main focus of the meeting was to discuss the energy efficiency and dependability of the coasting and non-coasting codes.
To Do/ Action Items:
– Compare the energy usage graphs of the coasting and non-coasting runs
-Discuss and compare the dependability of the different codes
-Decide on which code to proceed with going into final testing and evaluation
Decisions:
-The team decided to proceed with the non-coasting code due to its superior dependability and the energy difference not being large enough to warrant using the coasting code
Reflections:
-The team was able to come to a reasonable decision within the hour long meeting
-The team feels confident that the non-coasting code will be finalized shortly and the AEV will soon be ready for the final evaluation
