02 Annual Report 2014 | RESEARCH
Dear Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that we present the FY 2014 University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Annual Grants and Contracts Report. This has been a great year for the University and an exciting time to be part of our Research, Scholarship, and Innovation (RSI) community.
This report recognizes the achievements of our faculty, their staff and students in winning a range of awards including two National Science Foundation CAREER Awards in Biology and Civil and Environmental Engineering, Defense funding for applied and theoretical research, State support for an Advanced Manufacturing Academy, and industry funding for chemical probes and molecule design. These pages contain many more testaments to the ingenuity and passion of the UMassD faculty.
UMASSDTRANSFORM2020 Strategic Plan
The new UMASSDTRANSFORM2020 strategic plan identifies the achievement of Carnegie Doctoral Research University (DRU) status as one of the highest priorities. We are on the verge of attaining this – if the review process for this status were to be held today UMassD would qualify.
We rolled out the new UMASSDTRANSFORM2020 plan following a year of study. Two very important recommendations in support of research growth have already been implemented. These were: (1) the establishment of a new position of Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development (VCRED) and (2) the formation of a permanent RSI advisory committee reporting to the VCRED. I was appointed interim VCRED, and have in turn appointed research active and externally-funded faculty members to the RSI Committee.
Research seed fund programs
Last year Provost Karim and Associate Provost for Graduate Studies Meressi initiated two internal “seed” programs. The Multidisciplinary Research Program supported six teams of 20 faculty, and the Summer Faculty Research program supported 10 faculty members. We plan to closely track the impact of these seed funds in spurring external awards. This $210,000 institutional investment is in addition to ongoing system-wide internal research competitions through the President’s Science and Technology Initiative and the Healey Endowment Fund.

RESEARCH | Annual Report 2014 03
New personnel in key research support areas
uWe welcomed a new Director in the Office of Research Administration (ORA), Elena Glatman, who brings a wealth of managerial and financial compliance experience from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Brown University. The name ORA was changed to Sponsored Projects Administration (SPA) to reflect the wide range of projects funded by external sponsors. Ms. Glatman is a strong advocate for open communication, ongoing education and customer service.
u We also retained D. Glass Associates, led by Dr. David Glass, whose extensive experience in technology transfer will assist the University in identifying and protecting faculty inventions and guiding faculty through the patent and licensing process.
u The newly created Office of Research Development will work with faculty to develop long-term strategies to increase external funding and interdisciplinary research. Mary Hensel has moved from SPA to Research Development to staff this initiative.
Research scholarship innovation prioritiesUMASSDTRANSFORM2020 and initial RSI committee meetings focused on:
• Balancing research workload given teaching, advising, and service commitments of faculty members.
• Use of internal funding programs to support early research and research infrastructure.
• Broadening sponsorship beyond Federal awards.
• Heightened recognition of faculty members’ RSI achievements and celebration of research on campus.
• Increased support for identifying funding opportunities.
• Building research teams with University collaborators.
My thanks to all who engage in vital and vibrant research at UMass Dartmouth and make this a strong research, innovation, and scholarship community.
Sincerely

Geoffrey CowlesAssociate Professor, School for Marine Science and Technology
HARNESSING ENERGY WITH TIDAL TURBINESTidal energy turbines harness the power of the tides in much the same way that wind turbines harness the power of the wind. A recent estimate of the harvestable tidal resource in the United States is 65,000 GWh, or the equivalent of approximately 10 large power plants.
The National Science Foundation awarded $300,000 to Dr. Geoffrey Cowles of SMAST and co-investigator Dr. Luigi Martinelli of Princeton University, in cooperation with Ocean Renewable Power Company, to assess both the performance of tidal energy turbines and their interactions with the immediate marine environment.
“Our computations will be run at national supercomputing centers as well as on the UMass Dartmouth cluster currently housed in the Carney Library, which was purchased with funds from the National Science Foundation, the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, and UMass Dartmouth,” said Cowles.

Aminda O’HareProfessor, Psychology
EXPLORING THE INTERSECTION OF COGNITION AND EMOTIONDo emotions help or hinder our ability to make decisions? Dr. Aminda O’Hare is researching this question in the CAPES Lab, one of the Psychology Department’s electroencephalography (EEG) facilities. Using electrical sensors to track brain activity, she assesses her subjects’ abilities to stay focused on a task when emotion is present and when it’s not. While they are performing tasks, O’Hare records the nuances of each subject’s responses to words that have emotional content, such as “hatred” or “horror.” O’Hare’s view is that “emotions can brighten your attention.”
O’Hare runs multiple trials on each subject, takes the average of the electrical activity across all trials, and establishes event related potentials (ERPs). Using the ERPs, she can pinpoint at what stage emotion might be changing cognitive processing.
Improved understanding of the intersections of cognition and emotion could have very practical applications, O’Hare said, for example, the potential for the military to gauge a soldier’s ability to make decisions in extremely stressful situations.

Amit TandonProfessor, Engineering
EXAMINING OCEAN PROCESSES IN THE BAY OF BENGALDr. Amit Tandon of the UMass Dartmouth College of Engineering and Dr. Amala Mahadevan of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are leading a first-of- its-kind U.S.-India oceanographic research team to improve the forecasting of monsoon and extreme weather events across the Indian subcontinent.
“The monsoon has two faces,” said Dr. Tandon. “It can be a major destructive force, and yet most of the country’s agriculture depends on the timing and amount of the monsoon rains. A fluctuation of just 10 percent from the seasonal norm is the difference between a ‘deficient’ and an ‘excessive’ monsoon.”
The U.S. Office of Naval Research is funding the participating U.S. scientists and contributing the resources of the R/ V Roger Revelle. Dr. Frank Herr of the Office of Naval Research noted, “The visit of this U.S. oceanographic research ship to India is an important moment in the history of scientific partnership between our two countries. We hope to grow lasting scientific cooperation between our nations and acquire the knowledge to better forecast the initiation of the annual monsoons.”

CAPSTONE PROJECTS 2014
Mechanical Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering, College of Engineering
The projects provide students with diverse industry experience and offer companies
innovative ideas and solutions.
Some of the projects are highlighted below:
Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority
Green Line Wheelchair Ramp
Ryan Duncum, Edward Bouley, Amanda
Munson, Chris Hughes, Lane Tobiason
Walaa MogawerProfessor, Civil and Environmental Engineering
CREATING NEW PAVEMENT FROM OLD MATERIALSThe asphalt producing industry is working to conserve natural resources, produce environmentally friendly mixtures, and keep costs down. Dr. Walaa Mogawer, with more than 20 years of experience in paving technology, is addressing these challenges by developing pavement mixtures that include recycled materials.
Mogawer received $249,785 from the New England Transportation Consortium for research on “Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) Mixture Containing Recycled Asphalt Shingles” to advance technologies that use readily available recycled materials such as recycled asphalt shingles and reclaimed asphalt pavements in the construction of new paving materials.
In 2010, the recycling of asphalt pavements and asphalt shingles conserved 20.5 million barrels of asphalt binder. By recycling the nearly 10 million tons of shingle that currently go into U.S. landfills, the U.S. could save $2.5 billion worth of asphalt each year.
Mogawer is the Director of the UMass Dartmouth Highway Sustainability Research Center (HSRC), and has served as principal investigator on several research projects funded by MassHighway, New England Transportation Consortium (NETC), and National Science Foundation (NSF).
The MBTA team designed a manually
operated wheelchair ramp to be retrofitted
into the Massachusetts Bay Transportation
Authority’s 96 Green Line cars in Boston.
The existing wheelchair ramp retracts
under the subway car and is often jammed
by stones, sand, road grit, ice, and snow.
This new design folds up and is stored
inside the passenger compartment, away
from damaging debris. The prototype was
welded from aluminum stock and other
materials, functions as designed, meets all
design criteria, and meets demanding ADA,
MBTA, and structural requirements.

Jackson Leclerc, Gavin Klecak, Jonathan
Rivera, James Hansson (Team Leader),
David Massa
The Rex-Cut team designed and built a
fully-automated machine for boring very
precise center holes in abrasive disks.
The task had formerly been accomplished
manually by an operator standing at a drill
press. This machine takes a blank disk off
a stack using a pick-and-place robotic arm,
bores the hole with a diamond ream, and
moves the finished disk to a hopper. It
also counts the disks, processing them in
batches of 25 units. This machine will
improve both quantity and quality of the
finished product – and will relieve the
operator of a boring task!
Protonex Technology Corporation
Fuel Delivery System for a Fuel Cell
Keith Blanchard, Matthew Godfrey, Jerry
Olivier, Kyle Rowe, Christopher Jordan
(Team Leader)
The Protonex team designed and
demonstrated a fuel delivery approach for
a small, portable fuel cell system used by,
among others, the military. Originally, the
fuel was delivered to the system from
pressurized cans that are similar to spray
paint cans. As the fuel was used, the
pressure decreased, changing the rate of
delivery and changing system performance.
The team designed a new delivery system
that inverted the fuel cans, delivering the
fuel as a liquid instead of a gas. Fuel
management and delivery was significantly
stabilized, allowing the fuel cell to operate
more efficiently and in a wider range of
temperature environments.
Changsheng ChenProfessor, Department of Fisheries Oceanography School for Marine Science and Technology
PREDICTING, MODELING, AND EXPLORING COASTAL OCEANSDr. Changshen Chen is a coastal oceanographer working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to develop and operate a national network of forecast systems that predict coastal ocean systems, including water levels, salinity, currents, temperatures, and tides and currents.
Chen is the leader of the Marine Ecosystem Dynamics Modeling Research Laboratory, which has developed an innovative unstructured grid, finite-volume coastal ocean model (FVCOM) for the ocean community. This modeling technology has been in development for over a decade with collaborators from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and is at the core of NOAA’s Northeast Coastal Ocean Forecast System (NECOFS), an integrated atmosphere-ocean model system.
Chen’s FVCOM is also central to improved NOAA forecast systems in the Gulf of Mexico. The northwest Gulf of Mexico Operational Forecast System (NWGOFS) and the northeast Gulf of Mexico (NEGOFS) became operational on September 16, 2014, with new features by FVCOM developers that significantly benefit a range of maritime activities, including commercial and recreational boating, fishing and sailing, shipment and vessel transit planning, storm tides, hazardous material tracking, and Search and Rescue.
