Projects
My friend and I built a program using Python that allowed us to visualize and test the propagation of sound waves through different solids. This was completed using the spring-lattice theory of solids, and we utilized vPython for our model. Through testing our model and comparing it against data collected in labs, we were able to achieve 99.8% accuracy with our model. This program allowed me to improve my coding abilities, specifically within python, but also reinforced my Physics knowledge in a multitude of different topics. I honed my skills in group work, time management, and meeting project deadlines efficiently.
