Work History
Design, Build, Fly Design Team Systems Engineer
ERAU
- Modeled an unmanned radio-controlled aircraft in CATIA V5
- Modified the design satisfying AIAA rules within an optimal flight envelope and scoring
- Animated the modified UAV design in CATIA V5
- Built a prototype using actual hardware.
- Tested the flaps and propellers of the UAV prototype in a subsonic Low-Speed Wind Tunnel (LSWT)
- Carried out several conduct root cause analysis payload systems integrations.
Design of Enhanced Flap
ERAU
- Designed several flaps for an RC plane in CATIAV
- Built the flaps using actual hardware
- Wrote a MATLAB code to estimate the coefficient of drag and lift for the several flaps
- Determined the coefficient of drag and lift utilizing the forces acted on each flap
- Tested the flaps under the wind speed of 80ft/s in the SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL
- Tested the flaps at different yaw angles
- Installed the flaps on the wing of the RC plane.
Supersonic Stability Analysis for Concorde Plane
ERAU
- Utilized DATCOM to check the static stability for a supersonic fixed wing aircraft.
- Developed an algorithm in MATLAB to determine coefficient of moments for the fuselage, wing, and tail.
- Calculated the Static Margin for the Concorde airplane.
- Found static stability under different wing under different supersonic Mach speeds.
Design of NACA64A210 for the Development of the F35 Wings
ERAU
- Used POINTWISE FLUENT software to design airfoil for F35 wings.
- Obtained the velocity profile for F35 wings.
- Utilized ANSYS to find the pressure distribution on the airfoil at multiple angles of attack
- Carried out several ANSYS simulations to find the coefficient of lift through various iterations.
