WEBSITE ALERT: THIS SECTION IS CURRENTLY ONGOING DEVELOPMENT. The individualized project pages are not done and the captions for each project are not very informative.

Render of 3D model of a heliostat module

Senior Capstone Project

We designed and built a heliostat as a team of 8 given strict design constraints from our sponsor.

Render of 3D model of a competition robot

Design and Manufacturing Laboratory

We designed a robot to compete against the other teams in a tennis ball competition. We learned prototyping, design, 3D modeling, and manufacturing.

Vibrational analysis

Flutter Instability of an Aircraft Wing

I analyzed the vibrations from a flight test and extracted predictions of where the system would go unstable.

Vertical-static bending moment plot of bike frame

Finite Element Analysis of a Bike Frame

I determined the final radius of each tube of a bike frame to satisfy the design constraints of geometry and loading without failure from yielding or buckling.

Stress concentrations plot of the final geometry of a torque arm

Analysis and Design of a Torque Arm

Finite element analysis using Abaqus CAE was performed on a torque arm model to perform a convergence analysis, a comparison of four element types, and then optimize the mass of a torque arm by changing the geometry of the center cutout while maintaining a maximum stress less than 250 MPa.

Mechanics of Materials Laboratory

Mechanics of Materials Laboratory Reports

Ran some experiments and wrote IEEE conference papers (unsubmitted) detailing my mechanics of materials experiments.

Thermal Design and Sciences Laboratory

Thermal Design and Sciences Laboratory Reports

Ran some experiments to get an intuition for thermal design. Designed an impeller to meet a certain efficiency curve in Simerics MP+ (formerly Pumplinx).

Controls Lab

Controls Lab Reports

Started by analyzing bang-bang controllers and ended up modulating the pwm to a fan to control the height of a ball in a tube.

Research

Investigating Neurological Disorders in a Model of the Sensorimotor Control System

The goal of the project is to investigate neurological disorders in a model of the sensorimotor control system. Extensions will be added to Dr. Shreya Saxena’s previously published work describing a simple, generalizable framework for the sensorimotor control system using controls theory. The musculoskeletal system will be expanded from a simple joint to a more accurate configuration of muscles using OpenSim software for modeling, simulating, controlling, and analyzing the neuromusculoskeletal system. The peripheral nervous system will be expanded from a simple integrate-and-fire model to one with more biologically accurate functions, such as ATP production and calcium channels. Neurological disorders will be investigated within the context of this expanded model.

Nutshell

In A Nutshell

The Nutshell is a custom operating system shell designed by David Gutierrez-McCormack and Jaxton Willman for COP4600 - Operating Systems with Dr. Helal in Spring 2021. The shell is composed of the C, C++, Yacc, and Lex languages to accomplish parsing and executing commands from the user.
