PROJECT / LAB EXPERIENCE
Aerospace Lab Experience
Conducted stress-strain analysis on aluminum alloys to understand failure modes, factor of safety, and material selection.
Modeled the effect of flow parameters on streamlines, equipotential lines, and pressure contours over thin airfoils in Matlab.
Utilized ode45 integration and state space models within Matlab for simulation of quadrotor motion.
Designed a reaction wheel control system on a model spacecraft using closed loop feedback control to cause desired tracking behavior.
