==== Formula SAE Impact Attenuator ==== During my freshman year I worked with Arven Rulona, Chae Jeong, and Catherine Go on developing a polyurethane foam impact attenuator for Cooper Union's Formula SAE vehicle, which races in competition. The impact attenuator is a safety device, located at the front of the vehicle, that decreases the force experienced by the driver and absorbs energy in the event of a collision. {{:start:classes:principlesofdesign:screen_shot_2013-02-05_at_3.31.48_pm.png|}} {{:start:classes:principlesofdesign:attenuator_resized.jpg?450x520|}}
