PROJECTS:

Wind Tunnel Data Acquisition System - Designed a graphical user interface

for the University wind tunnel data acquisition system, for the SAE Aero

team using the LabVIEW program. The system was used to collect and process

test data for various aircraft wing designs.

Car Rim - Designed a 22" wheel rim with 5 lug nuts to fit a tire size of

235/40/22 for a school competition. The design was modeled in AutoCAD and

won the best design.

Crank Slider - Created complex 10 parts design and assembled it using Pro-E

and conducted FEM stress analysis to see if the design was practical to

stand against given load.

Spur Gear Design - Calculated forces on tooth of spur gear using MathCAD,

constrained to the given parameters. This was later designed and tested

using Pro-E and FEM.
