I presented at the Center for Compact and Efficient Fluid Power Summit on May 7, 2025, where I compared the efficiency of three off-road vehicle powertrain architectures: a baseline diesel engine with a hydrostatic transmission, a hydrogen fuel cell with a series hydraulic hybrid transmission, and a hydrogen fuel cell with electric motors on each wheel. The presentation featured Sankey diagrams to illustrate energy flow, efficiencies, and losses, emphasizing the advantages of hydrogen-based systems for improving energy efficiency in off-road applications. 

I presented to students and professors at the Center for Compact and Efficient Fluid Power on November 4, 2024. The presentation compared the efficiency of a diesel engine with a hydrostatic transmission to that of a hydrogen fuel cell with an e-pump in a series hybrid hydraulic transmission. 

A paper I collaborated on received the Global Fluid Power Society Best Paper Award in Bath, UK. 

I successfully defended my Ph.D. thesis on August 22, 2024. 

I gave a presentation at the ASME 47th Mechanisms and Robotics Conference on August 23, 2023 in Boston, Massachusetts.

I tested a prototype of a novel variable displacement linkage motor at the Fluid Power Institute in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2022. 

My coworker Jake Larson and I presented at the ASME/Bath Symposium on Fluid Power and Motion Control, held virtually in 2021.
