Project management & planning: Structured and managed a long-term independent engineering project, defining objectives, milestones, and deliverables from concept through to final evaluation.
Requirements & concept development: Interpreted functional and performance requirements to develop an initial landing gear concept suitable for a lightweight aircraft application.
CAD (mechanical design): Created detailed 3D component and assembly models to support design development and analysis.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Applied structural simulations to assess stresses and deflections under representative load cases, supporting design validation and comparison.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD): Used CFD to investigate aerodynamic effects associated with the landing gear configuration.
Analytical & engineering judgement: Evaluated assumptions, interpreted simulation results, and balanced trade-offs between strength, weight, and practicality.
Technical reporting: Produced a comprehensive engineering dissertation documenting methodology, results, and design justification.
Group Product Design Project (Customer-Focused Design)
Teamwork & collaboration: Worked as part of a multidisciplinary group to deliver a design solution within defined time and scope constraints.
Customer needs analysis: Identified user and stakeholder needs and translated them into clear, measurable engineering requirements.
Concept generation & evaluation: Developed multiple design concepts and assessed them based on efficiency, feasibility, and performance.
CAD & visual communication: Used CAD to generate and communicate design ideas effectively within the team and during reviews.
Design decision-making: Contributed to the selection and refinement of a final concept through structured discussion and evaluation.
Reduction Gearbox Design Project
Mechanical system design: Designed a reduction gearbox focusing on power transmission, component integration, and functional performance.
CAD modelling: Produced detailed CAD models of gearbox components and assemblies to support design development.
Group problem-solving: Collaborated within a team to resolve design challenges and align technical decisions.
Engineering analysis & justification: Applied core mechanical engineering principles to support design choices.
Presentations & communication: Presented technical work and design decisions clearly to an academic audience.
