Projects

Booster Avionics Bay (2022-2023)

Why?

Design a part to accommodate the electronic components of the recovery system, including TELEGPS, RRC3s, and 9v Batteries.

The material should withstand elevated temperatures.

How?

Employ SolidWorks assemblies to integrate the electronic components into the designed part.

Opted for PETG due to its high glass transmission properties. Employed SolidWorks simulation tools to assess structural integrity, ensuring the part's resilience against potential stresses and impacts.

Results

PETG material chosen for optimal transparency. SolidWorks simulations confirmed structural integrity, ensuring the part's resilience to potential stresses and impacts, resulting in a robust design for electronic component accommodation in the recovery system.

Aerodynamic Analysis (2023-2024)

Why?
