PART Mechanisms R&D Team
Designed and developed 4 different crucial parts for the club UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) with VTOL capabilities using SolidWorks CAD Software
Manufactured parts of UAV fuselage and wings using 3D-printed and carbon fiber-epoxy composite materials
Ran finite element analysis simulations on structural integrity of parts using Ansys Software
Assisted in pre-flight equipment checks and assembly/disassembly in 3 successful flight tests
Worked with teammates to design and manufacture 2 part assemblies that worked together to perform the needed functions
Devoted 6-10 hours per week on assigned projects and duties
Learned to fail, and to get up and work past having a hard-fought project scrapped last-minute
