Hadi Akil

Hardworking Biomedical Engineering student that is willing to put more work in than expected. Has an understanding of basic lab and experimental procedures, as well as basic problem solving skills. Has the ability to excel in a team based environment and treats everyone with respect. Looking for opportunities to use engineering skills in a practical work space environment.

Few examples of Projects:

Porosity Material Testing 

• Used Solid-Works in order to create a few structures all having a different amount of pores in order to test how the porosity of a material affects its tensile strength as well as other properties. A software, which was compatible with Solid-Works, was used in order to complete the test and measure the properties of the material.

Red Blood Cell Count

• Created a Matlab code that could count the amount of red blood cells depicted on a zoomed in image of blood samples. The matlab code was tested with a manual count in order to understand its accuracy.

Tensile Strength Testing 

• Tested the tensile strength of different metal alloys, specifically aluminum, with a tensile testing machine. This was done in order to acquire different properties of different materials or different types of the same material
