Projects
Welcome to my projects!
Unfortunately, due to confidentiality, I am only able to show work form my time at Wentworth. Please feel free to reach out if you want to learn more about my work.
Emergency Zipline Launching Mechanism
Team Member
Collaborated on a capstone project to design and analyze a grappling hook launching system, utilizing SolidWorks FEA and flow
simulations to validate the design. Examined existing spring and air systems and verified that the design met the project goals. Using
manufacturing processes, including cutting, milling, lathing, and 3D printing, the design was brought to life for testing.
Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
Team Member
Collaborated on a team project studying Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs). Designed and tested four-blade designs in a wind
tunnel, selecting the highest drag force design for building VAWTs with 3-6 blades. Evaluated the performance of each design to
determine the most effective one. Presented the project at the AIAA student conference to present findings to judges and peers.
Turbofan Engine Analysis
Team Member
Analysis of a V2531-E5 turbofan engine using Ansys Student Version, Python, and EES. Overcame challenges related to aerodynamic interactions and large amounts of simulation data, ultimately generating results that closely aligned with actual performance data.
