Hello and welcome! Feel free to explore my past projects throughout the site. Below will be most projects that I have worked on throughout my year in college and beyond. Feel free to explore the various projects that range from creative Model Bridge and rapid-prototyping of a Pokémon to more technical finite element analysis (FEA) and robotics projects.
In this project we cooperatively work together in a group to design the CAD model using Rapid-Prototyping techniques. We try implementing various machining techniques to create the desired model. In this project we will be using the following machine: 3D Printer, abrasive waterjet cutter, EDM, and a CNC Mill. |
The lack of a convenient curve measuring device in today’s market provided the motivation for developing the pocketRULER, a compact measuring device that not only had the capability of measuring straight lines, but also be able to measure curves and complex geometries for longer distances (at least a foot).

To create a bridge out of balsawood that can support an optimum weight but still be below mass limit. The desire is to optimize the design by maximizing load, minimizing material usage (mass), stressing neatness, craftsmanship, and creativity. |
Our goal is to design, fabricate, test, and demonstrate an autonomous bulk material transporter. The transporter needs to follow a predetermined pathway and dump a payload into a collection bin. We need to come up with an effective, creative solution for this task. The transporter will be composed of two main systems: the drive system and the payload delivery system. Read More... |
In this lab we used Finite Element Method (FEM) to test the following:

The objective of this project is to design and simulate a horizontal-platform mechanism using CAD and Matlab and then analyzed the mechanism position, velocity, and motor’s torque. The platform must fulfill certain criteria during its horizontal motion to satisfy and pass the prerequisite. This mechanism, once finished, has a quick return and a well-defined horizontal motion. This makes this mechanism a good mechanism for performing slow linear motion and quick return to repeat the action. |
The objective is to design and analyze a connecting rod for a Toyota 1NR-FE 4-cylinder engine. The connecting rod is to be made of 4130 Steel annealed at 865ºC and utilizes an I-beam shape for its column cross section. Load analysis is performed to determine the axial and transverse forces on the connecting rod using Matlab. Using the loads obtained, a preliminary design of the cross section geometry is made based on beam theory. Read More... |

Below will mostly be reports that I have worked on throughout my year in college and beyond. Feel free to explore the various reports I have worked on individually or cooperatively. These reports consist of new smart technology such as the Smart Gird and electric vehicles (EVs) to small lab reports.
Current developments are focusing on building a computerized grid system called the smart grid. Smart grids will be enhanced with sophisticated communication and sensing technologies to increase energy efficiency and reliability. The smart grid also offers a huge effect on enhancing employment of green energy, electric vehicles, smart home, and many more forms of technology, along with decreasing energy cost and pollution.

This research deals with the integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into the Smart Grid. With gas prices near all-time high, EVs are poised to enter the mass market in the United States. Our current Smart Grid system already experiences overloads during peak hours. A huge strain would be put on the grid if a large amounts of EVs all charge during peak hours. The goal of this paper is to figure out a method to prevent EVs from overloading the Smart Grid. Read More... |
In this lab we will work with various circuits and build many circuits for different application. We will work with DMM, DC shunt milliammeter, Norton and Thevenin equivalent circuit, photoresistor, thermometer circuit, thermistor, Lissajous figures, RC, RL, RLC, Op-amps, and combination of those listed above. |
The following describe the effect of nanoscale structure and heat transfer at nanoscale. It is known that heat transfer at nanoscale behave differently at this scale. Heat transfer is conduct through phonons and since phonon have both particle and wave properties heat transfer is completely different from what we know for bulk materials. Read More...
