Engineering Projects
“MEHAWK (Marine Electricity from High Altitude Kites)” – 2013 Renewable Energy Research & Design
Heavily modified existing 20 foot apparatus into a mobile 4x4 footprint system capable of
automatic and computer guided electricity recovery from wind energy using high altitude kites.
Current prototype can be equipped onto a water craft for electricity generation at sea.
Presented at P3 – National Sustainable Design Expo & Competition in Washington DC.

“Rope Pump for the Gambia, Engineers without Borders” – A Service Project for Clean Water in Gambia
Modified rope pump to reach greater depths using gears to reduce input force.
Theoretical and experimental data were spot on for power and flow rate curves which ensured
feasibility of using gears to reach water in deeper wells.
Co-authored publication: “Rope Pump Modifications to Reach Greater Depths” in International
Journal for Service Learning in Engineering (IJSLE).
Designed, Optimized, Machined, and Tested Air Compressor & Pneumatic Engine – Machine Design
Both designs were made using MathCad & Solidworks, waterjet, drill press, mill, and lathe.
Compressor used one-stroke, 2-stage cylinders; placed 2nd in flow rate in student competition.
Engine used steam engine design with 7 varying cams; placed 2nd in max torque.
“Wind Turbine” – Parametric Design and Fabrication of Preliminary and Final Turbine
Optimized turbine with varying airfoil using Matlab. Final Turbine placed 1st in power generation
out of 8 teams in design competition.
“Innovative Pill Crusher Design” –Engineer Clinic Project for Doctor Clientele at Cooper Medical School
Designed pharmaceutical pill crusher for commercial use by reverse engineering existing models.
“System and Dynamics Control Projects: Ball and Beam Balance & IR Gun” – Course Design Projects
Used Arduino and PID control to balance a ball anywhere on a servo motorized beam balance.
Designed and built infrared gun with integrated Arduino board to measure temperature.
“Bio Transport COMSOL Simulations” – FEA Heat and Mass Transfer Simulation on Human Tissue
Extensive parametric study on laser tattoo removal involving initial heat flux, then heat diffusion
over time on the surface of human skin in comparison with real world data to prevent burn
injury by using low powered lasers or adding insulation such as Kevlar.
Other simulations ranged from eye drop drug concentration in the eye to nicotine diffusion in
skin from a nicotine patch.
“Wind Turbine Site Surveying” – Student Consulting with Mt Laurel Municipal Utilities Authority
Determined feasibility of building a wind turbine by analyzing wind speed and direction at 8 sites.
Tested Remtech SODAR and compared with anemometer readings to determine accuracy of
wind velocity readings at different altitudes.
