Try to aim for something as conceptually different as possible from prior years. For example, if previously you used a visco elastic damper design for a 2” damper, and this year you want to use the exact same damper mechanism but just 3” long, this would not be considered distinct enough from years before. Please make sure to clarify and justify the differences between your prior design to the current design in your damping proposal. The damper is accessed as part of the Innovation Award, so it must be unique year to year.
