• Designed and fabricated layered composite specimens for mechanical testing using epoxy impregnation, vacuum technology, and water-jet cutting machinery

• Obtained material quotes, set up industrial machining sessions, and wrote reports on techniques used

• Translated scientific paper and made figures for; “Critical balance of an internal cavity inside a sheet metal with and internal pressure ρ” submitted

Senior Design Project

Department of Mechanical Engineering IPN, Mexico City Advisor: Prof. Jose Luis Martinez

Project title: Calculations and Selection of a Pump System for Agricultural Applications

• Carried out calculations for a hydraulic network with varying materials to down select based on material properties, performance, and cost

• Worked in a group, carried out a detailed cost analysis, and completed a technical report

• Determined that using a centrifuge motor pump of 7HP capacity, with a 12000 L/hr flow would be optimum with the use of polyethylene pipes
