2)  Human Powered Submarine - The Next Generation of SUB-VARIABLE (Proposal, Report), (Bryan Flynn, Kathleen Fry, Devin S. Paul, Chris Walker) The team designed a new control system and modified the propulsion system for the existing submarine known as "Sub-Variable." The purpose of the design is to improve maneuverability of the sub and to enhance the durability of the propulsion system.

3) Feasibility Study of Using Ships to Protect Harbor Entrances in Severe Weather Conditions (Report Doc1, Doc2), (Chris Creely, James Gray, Bill Owens, Ted Whitiak) The objective was to determine the feasibility of using a string of supply ships to protect a harbor from wind driven waves while one of them enters to resupply. A scale model of a supply vessel was constructed and tested in the wave channel for its effect on wave height.
