Experience
Research Assistant - Energy Harvesting and Mechatronics Lab, Stony Brook University
Railroad energy harvesting sponsored by Electric Truck LLC. and the US Department of Transportation. Designed and prototyped 3 railroad energy harvesters responsibilities include 3D CAD modeling in
Solidworks and Inventor, conceptual development, detailed design, materials selection, stress and lifecycle analysis, BOM production, circuits, prototyping, testing, and negotiating with vendors. Developed railroad energy harvesters which improve upon existing technologies increasing efficiency from 25% to 70% and power harvesting capabilities from 2 Watts up to 50 Watts. Utilized ANSYS to perform FEA structural analysis on shafts, hubs, and shaft collars. Prepared over 15 Powerpoint presentations for proposals, conferences, and design reviews. Mentored 2 undergraduate researchers during the summer.
2008 2009
Designed 4 liquid cooling plates and 6 laser mounting bases resistive to undesired thermal expansion. Modeled and modified laser components and assemblies in 3D using Inventor and MDT. Drafted 100+ layouts for laser components experience in GD&T and ASME Y14.5 standards. Increased drafting productivity by 20-40% by utilizing software macros to streamline procedures.
2009
Parallax Stamp and Arduino Uno microcontrollers. Also developed skills in using accelerometers, DC and servo motors, ultrasonic, infrared, and light sensors, and PID algorithm. Analyzed acceleration data and differentiated 4 types of surfaces in time and frequency domains.
