Objectives/Goals The goal for my project was to create a device/musical minstrument that is able to play any instrumental sound and can be played without any physical contact through the use…
Through my experience in 4-H and living on a farm, I became interested in the genetics and growth patterns of crops my family grew. I wanted to analyze the growth and fertilization of soybea…
Fourth Award
Estuaries are partially enclosed bodies of coastal water where fresh water from river runoffs mixes with the saltwater from the ocean. Estuaries provide a nutrient rich and safe ecosystem. T…
Vehicle releases high amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This carbon dioxide released is the biggest factor that leads to global warming. An idea has occur on using rice husk as a…
First Award
Water is life and Egypt's main source of water is Nile River. Unfortunately it's not clean enough and unfit for drinking, in addition it will never last forever. Today, the treatment of diff…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
Objectives/Goals Our purpose of making the project was to make a hovercraft and test different weights on different surfaces. We wanted to know how to build a hovercraft and how they work. W…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
Objectives/Goals The object of my project was to determine what surface a hovercraft would ride over the fastest. The surfaces chosen for the experiment were cement, grass, asphalt, rough di…
Fourth Award
Although most alternative energy advocates focus upon wind and solar, wave energy is also a viable option, since oceans cover over seventy percent of the Earth’s surface and even small swell…
Exchange in the three body problem occurs when one body displaces a previously bound member of a binary system. Exact conditions for when such an exchange can occur are established through a…
Microbiology (General)
Objectives/Goals Purpose: I used the single cell, multi-nucleate slime mold Physarum polycephalum to model comparative evaluation risk-taking behavior. Physarum were presented with two food…
The risk of anthropogenic disasters due to the dam failures caused by natural or artificial reasons grows with the increasing number and scale of hydraulic facilities. The appearing wave tra…
The use of automobiles is in the rise worldwide. Data for the past 10 years show an average increase of about 70% worldwide [1] of new car sales. The number is even higher in some developing…
Third Award
With the common occurrence of concussions in the sports world, there should be a way through technological means to stop or reduce the risk of receiving a concussion. The Robo F-Pads shoulde…
Currently available robotic systems lack the ability to act and react without human intervention. As we expand to more diverse fields, we will require increasingly autonomous instruments tha…
