PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Topographical Mapping Drone August 2020 – Present
University of Texas at Arlington Arlington, Texas
Currently working in a group designing a drone for senior design project which would map a given area using a mounted LIDAR camera. Responsible for designing the mount for the LIDAR, as well as testing and simulation of the CAD model and prototype. Performed a 6 Degree of Freedom simulation in Simulink to justify the added stability offered by a hexacopter over quadcopter with the same controller. GT-POWER 1-D Engine Simulation of Ford 302 Small block June 2020 – August 2020 University of Texas at Arlington Arlington, Texas
Performed 1 dimensional engine simulation of a Ford 302 small block used in a Ford GT40 replica, using GT-POWER simulation software. Simulation done to compare the performance characteristics of using equal length exhaust headers on the engine with those of the default unequal length exhaust headers. MATLAB Analysis of Rankine Cycle April 2020 – May 2020 University of Texas at Arlington Arlington, Texas
Performed an analysis of a Rankine cycle using initial parameters provided in the course textbook, with alterations like refrigeration and regeneration implemented. Initial parameters also changed to study the effects of the changes on the efficiency and output of the cycle. WORK & LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE
