Hello everyone! This team will be working with NextEra Energy to design and prototype a tool to remove broken fasteners from the bolted connections of wind turbine blades. This week, the team got to introduce ourselves (you can meet us here) to each other and to the coaches, professors Edward Latorre and Lawrence Warren. We discussed our scope of work, created a plan for meeting with our company liaisons Drake Viscome and Estafania Rosso next week, and drafted our first memo. We also came up with a preliminary team name and logo concept and drafted a team charter. We are excited to begin diving into the project and furthering our learning as developing professional engineers.
