7:30 pm, Weatherford Hall Trysting Tree Conference Room D107. Steve has been with
HP for over 24 years in a variety of R&D, Marketing, and Sales Management
positions. Steve assumed management
responsibilities for the Display Technology and Products organization in
November, 2001. Before joining the digital projection organization, he spent
the previous year starting up a new worldwide outbound marketing and sales
system for HP’s commercial printing solutions organization. This critical new cross-company initiative
included the acquisition of Indigo, an industry leading commercial printing
vendor. As part of the core acquisition team, Steve focused on designing a new
model for high-value, consultative selling that was cost effective, service
oriented, customer centric, and scalable. Previous to CPS, Steve managed the
North American Printer/Scanner marketing center. He managed a team of 90 sales and marketing
professionals that had an annual quota of $3B and expense envelope of
$125M. In addition to managing the sales
and marketing of IPS products to the largest consumer retailers, Steve stressed
new and emerging channel development. Event is free and open to all OSU
students, but you must pre-register at http://www.bus.oregonstate.edu/aepfellows/home.aspx Saturday,

Dr. Kristi Morgansen, Assistant Professor, Dept of
Aeronautics and Astronautics, University of Washington, speaking on “Modeling and
Control of Fin-Actuated Underwater Vehicles” ABSTRACT: A large number of commercial and military applications have a
demonstrated need for single- and multiple-vehicle systems that are autonomous
and highly agile. The theoretical tools discussed here are applicable to any
type of operational environment; however, to demonstrate these techniques, we
focus on underwater vehicles that are actuated using flapping foils rather than
a rotary propeller. We apply techniques from geometric mechanics and geometric
nonlinear control theory to model and construct trajectory tracking algorithms
for a free-swimming underwater vehicle that loco motes and maneuvers using a
two-link actuated "tail'' and actuated "pectoral fin'' bow
planes. Restricting consideration of
fluid forces to the simple effects of added mass and quasistatic
lift and drag, the resulting system model can be expressed in a form amenable
to nonlinear control theoretic techniques. With particular choices of
oscillatory actuation of the four system joints, we can construct maneuvers
such as swimming forward, turning in the plane, out-of-plane turns, surfacing,
and diving. Variations in amplitude and frequency modulation can be shown to
affect power consumption. Using state error feedback, we can then stabilize
turning and depth for such a vehicle. Results are demonstrated in simulation
and in experiment using the Informal social
time starts at 2:00 (coffee and tea provided). Come meet the speaker and visit
with colleagues! Presentation begins at 2:30 pm sharp. Note:
