Training
Numerical Methods
*Learned how to model physical systems using numerical analysis with MatLab.
*Involved solving non-homogeneous differential equations by obtaining the approximate solutions from the ordinary differential equations and adjusting error using Newton-Raphson, Runge-Kutta, etc.
Advanced Space Physics
*Studied the atmosphere’s temperature profile using the upper and lower hybrid frequencies, species generation, and density profiles found by studying the spectral emissions collected from a sounding rocket with an onboard spectrometer and comparing the species UV absorption with the blackbody radiation curve from the sun.
*Studied the plasma densities in the magnetosphere by analyzing the physical processes of magnetic reconnection, Kelvin-Helmholtz instability at the boundary, and electron precipitation in the auroral zone utilizing data from a sky cam (collecting spectral emissions) and solar flares.
Spacecraft Dynamics and Control
*Modeled dynamic systems and studied their stability using the Lyapunov Theorems (analytically and using functions in MatLab) and the eigenvalues of the characteristic equations.
*Applied controls to these systems to force stability using state-space control methods.
Finite Element Method (FEM)
*Learned the analytical approach to the FEM discussed in Numerical Methods.
*Studied the stability of static, structural members experiencing different loads to determine shear, stress, and strain factors to predict failure.
Graphical Communications
*Learned how to make sketches of parts by hand on 3D graph paper.
*Introduced to CATIA v5 and learned how to produce professional design proposals by modeling a simple machine.
3D-CADD & Engineering Documentation
*Used advanced workbenches in CATIA like Generative Shape Design, Sheet metal Design, Assembly Design, etc.
*Worked with a group to model a complex machine (a bicycle) and submitted a design report.
Space Systems Design 1 & 11
*Worked in a group with three other people to build a picosat for the CUBESAT design competition.
*Evaluated the previous teams design and decided that it was not feasible and starting from scratch was the only option.
*I designed the structure and components using CATIA, fabricated and ordered parts for mounting internal and external components, determined the best and most efficient method to mount the scientific payload (Thermal Electric Generator), built a test model, and documented my progress.
*Presented the project to the department at the end of each semester using MS PowerPoint.
Engineering Materials Science with Lab
*Learned about the stress strain relationships of different materials, performed tests on some materials, and studied different molecular structures of materials and the effect that different methods of fabricating had on the strength of these materials.
*Studied different forms of failure in materials and learned good engineering practices to ensure safe design.
*Put together a team to investigate a failed device, determined the cause of failure and ways to prevent future occurrences, and presented our findings through demonstration and PowerPoint.
