ZF's Lafayette plant is facing significant challenges related to excessive energy consumption. Historically, many Lafayette plants have relied on using constant energy for daily operation. Many of the negative impacts that are affecting companies like ZF are the high cost to run and impacts on the local environment due to energy waste. Our project is necessary as reducing the energy consumed by their heating and cooling system, lighting, and fans that are left on continuously will use more energy than what is needed for their actual operation.
Knee osteoarthritis affects 46% of people over their lifetime, particularly women, and its prevalence is expected to rise as the population ages. While current treatments such as medications, surgery, and physical therapy are available, they often require assistive devices like canes or walkers. However, these devices lack the ability to accurately measure key biomechanical factors, such as the knee adduction moment (KAM), which is critical for effective management of the condition. The lifetime cost for a person diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis is estimated at $140,300.
