Presentation Schedule15 minutes + 5 minutes for questions • March 11 • Haegele: Bicycle Chainrings • Chen: Transportation logistics of forest harvest residues • Oleson: Sugar from wood biomass • Naito: FSAE racecar • Parrish: Aircraft fuselages • Owen: Aircraft engines • March 13 • Dou: Bioethanol • Yasuda: Shape memory alloy • Olsufka: LED lighting • Sifford: Biofuel from slash piles in the forest • Wesley: Urea fertilizer production
What to include in your presentation • 15 minutes = about 8 slides • Intro • Technology description/ picture + study goal • Functional unit • Brief review of previous LCAs • Scope • Life cycle processes (flow diagram) • Data sources • Omissions/ cutoff • Impact results (h vectors) • Contribution analysis (identification of “significant issues”) • March 13 presentations: Evaluation of importance of completeness, consistency, and quality of the data • Conclusions • Can you really hope to say something is better or worse? • Can you really make recommendations for improving the system(s)? • What data are missing or need to be improved? • Optional: Sensitivity for 1-3 parameters (what if the energy efficiency of your core process were improved? A valid conclusion is that it makes no difference, and other actions should be sought for improvement.)
