  1. Undergraduate Research Assistant

    Purdue University Mechanical Engineering

    Aug 2024 — Present · West Lafayette, IN, US

    Optimized designs of hexachiral auxetic metamaterials through the use of Ansys Mechanical FEA and sensitivity analysis to improve compressive yield strength by 104% while retaining a similar negative Poisson’s ratios within the linear elastic region of the base material. Compare key mechanical properties between designs using MATLAB to analyze data from compression tests. Perform compression tests following ASTM standards to determine material properties of 3 3D-printed resins. Present weekly technical reports summarizing analysis of experimental tests, FEA data, and design changes. Practice safe laboratory procedures in accordance with Purdue Class 3B and 4 Laser Safety Training.
