Projects
Project 1 - Structural Analysis of Aircraft Engine Bracket using Finite Element Method (ANSYS)
● Modeled aircraft engine bracket using ANSYS/SOLIDWORK software to create three-dimensional solid model for analysis in ANSYS.
● Performed static analysis of bracket under various loads and operating conditions, including vibration and temperature fluctuations with material properties.
● Analyzed the stress, deformation, and strain distribution of bracket and identify areas of potential failure.
● Optimized the design of bracket to improve its strength and durability, while minimizing weight and cost using topology optimization.
● Validated the results of the FEA by comparing them to experimental data or industry standards to provide recommendations for design improvements or modifications of bracket to improve its performance and safety.
● Generated detailed report of the analysis, including all assumptions, methods, results, and conclusions.
Project 2 - Design of a low-speed electric-powered small Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle (Twin Boom aircraft)
●Facilitated successful design and build of the twin boom aircraft used for surveillance and monitoring because of its high altitude and long range
●Used various software's like SolidWorks, XFLR 5 and gained experience in using 3D printers.
● Used Eppler E 193 airfoil, and the maximum thickness is 10.2% at 31% chord, maximum camber 3% at 44.7% chord. The Reynolds number for the chosen airfoil is 1,000,000.
● Weighing around 25N and with the main payload being a high resolution cadx camera of 2N for surveillance
● Powered by Sunny Sky (x2212-8 kv:1400Ⅲ) with four servos powering the battery.
● Extensive research has been done and updated spreadsheets with the data.
