SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT (AERONAUTICAL SYSTEMS DESIGN CAPSTONE PROJECT)
AUGUST 2013-MAY 2014
Designed an aircraft that could transport a range of payloads over various distances while optimizing efficiency and maintaining limits set by the client. Worked with a group to create a preliminary design to meet the needs of the client.
* Provided Excel spreadsheets to size the engine and weight of the aircraft using calculations on an array of variables, including aircraft category and aircraft dimensions.
* Calculated required fuel weight for an array of cargo weight and travel distance.
* Produced an aircraft arrangement of the operators, avionics, and cargo space.
* Designed a wing that provided required lift and fuel storage space while minimizing drag.
* Delivered a preliminary design that provided the required range and payload amounts efficiently.
* Provided a final technical drawing and report to showcase the airplane dimensions and breakdown of flight characteristics for various combinations of ranges and payload amounts.

PARASHIELD STABILITY TESTING
AUGUST 2011-DECEMBER 2011
Created and tested a parashield model that produced stable reentry qualities based off of a retired MIT project code named "Skippy". Fit the project to a weather balloon designed to separate from the model at a height of 50,000 ft. Achieved sufficient data to prove descent qualities were maintained throughout the entire drop.
* Researched parashield project "Skippy" by looking at the dimensions and mass distribution.
* Created a preliminary model for mass distribution and free fall tests
* Assessed ideas for maximum stability by altering the center of mass and pressure location.
* Independently designed transport system and release mechanism that would withstand atmospheric environment...
