A common source of inefficiency and cause of cost overruns in manufacturing is imprecision and wear in industrial dies and surfaces. This leads to unplanned maintenance operations in manufacturing facilities which can cost millions of dollars annually. Manufacturers use die extrusions, typically large cylindrical rolls, to flatten polymers into flat sheets. However through repetitive use, deformations as well as wear tear occur on the die's surface. Manufacturers often use screws to re-adjust the surface and compensate for these deformations. These solutions have not been able to reduce unplanned maintenance significantly. A company like Maieutic Enterprises has a potential solution to this problem. They call their patent pending technology 'programmable surface'. Since this is a complex problem, it has to be tackled breaking it down into smaller chunks, technically called subsystems. One crucial subsystem involves engineering a liquid which can exert and bear large forces. This field of applied science is hydraulics. The proposal is that Centennial's researchers will be able to develop the hydraulic subsystem for a 'programmable surface' using facilities at the college.

制造过程中效率低下和成本超支的一个常见原因是不精确和磨损 工业模具和表面。这会导致制造设施中出现计划外的维护操作， 每年可能花费数百万美元。 制造商使用模头挤压件（通常是大型圆柱形辊）将聚合物压平成平板。然而 通过重复使用，模具表面会发生变形和磨损。厂家经常使用 螺钉重新调整表面并补偿这些变形。这些解决方案均未能 显着减少计划外维护。 像 Maieutic Enterprises 这样的公司有一个潜在的解决方案来解决这个问题。他们称其专利正在申请中 技术“可编程表面”。由于这是一个复杂的问题，因此必须将其分解为多个部分来解决 更小的块，技术上称为子系统。一个关键的子系统涉及设计一种液体，它可以 施加并承受较大的力。这个应用科学领域是水力学。 该提议是 Centennial 的研究人员将能够开发液压子系统 使用学院设施的“可编程表面”。
