Book Review

As the practice of divorce mediation continues to grow, more and more professionals need training and literature to develop skills and perspective. A welcome addition to their libraries will be Divorce Mediation: Theory and Practice, edited by Jay Folberg and Ann Milne. In the preface, the editors explain that the purpose of the book is to examine divorce mediation from an interdisciplinary perspective. They achieve this goal with a series of articles written by professionals from such diverse fields as anthropology, sociology, psychology, law, and social work. Each article examines a different aspect of divorce mediation and provides the special insight that comes with the professional background of the author. The articles are rich enough in detail and contain sufficient practical suggestions that they will be of interest to the practitioner who has already received some training or had some experience as a mediator. However, the novice can also benefit from the book because of its panoramic overvie

Exploiting the CH-π interactions in supramolecular hydrogels of aromatic carbohydrate amphiphiles

A novel class of supramolecular hydrogels derived from amino sugars is reported, where the self-assembly of aromatic carbohydrate amphiphiles is driven by CH-π interactions, rather than π–π stacking and H-bonding associated with gelators based on aromatic peptide amphiphiles. Spectroscopic data is provided as evidence for this mode of self-assembly and in silico studies revealed that a combination of CH-π and T-stacking of the fluorenyl groups contribute to the formation of the aggregated structures

QuickCut Waterjet Cutter

The QuickCut Waterjet Cutter was created in 2019 as a senior design project. This is the third iteration of the waterjet cutter. The goal of this project was to create an operable CNC waterjet cutter that is able to cut 1/16” tensile specimens consisting of nonferrous metal or plastic. This machine will be utilized in the Manufacturing Laboratory at the University of Akron to provide education to interested students on the waterjet cutting process, how it operates, and industrial application of the technology. Waterjet cutting is a subtractive manufacturing process which is recognized for its specialized applications such as cutting dangerous materials or preserving heat treatment. Waterjet cutting utilizes high pressurized water with entrained garnet to cut through materials with precision and accuracy. The QuickCut Waterjet Cutter aims to bring the applications of industrial waterjet cutting operations to the smaller, tabletop scale to cut softer materials with precision. This report goes in depth on what defines an abrasive waterjet cutter, important components and the benefits of the waterjet cutting process. Detailed steps on how the newest rendition of the Quickcut Waterjet Cutter was created are covered. This includes brainstorming, design of components, design of controls, manufacturing process, as well as testing and future work to be completed
