. Supported efforts to quote and design new motors and
generators for navy and nuclear applications by carrying
out Finite Element Analyses on parts; calculating pressure
drops in cooling loops; writing requests for quotes;
calculating bending modes in rotors; and organizing results
in excel spreadsheets.
. Constructed an Excel spreadsheet with inputs that
parametrically drive the dimensions of a 3D model of a
motor while maintaining the correct relationships between
parts. This allowed for updating the values of dimensions
to obtain new motor models.
. Mastered the barcode system and used my knowledge to give
customers and shop workers all the information they needed
to render barcodes for necessary items.
. Designed test fixtures and followed through with their
manufacture by working with shop workers to convey the
design and installation.
. Applied Visual Basic to create more useful and intuitive
Excel documents for applications, such as keeping time
sheets or keeping track of the components of a design.
