High School Engineering Projects

Airfoil Project

(Done in high school junior year)

What did I learn:
- I learned how to iterate efficiently through designs when given set parameters that had relationships with each other.
- Although it may seem that we know a lot about airfoils, we still have much to learn about not only how the aerodynamic forces and the airfoil dimensions are correlated, but also how various design concepts such as flaps work to create greater lift.
- I learned much about how to alter various aspects of an airfoil in order to make it satisfy almost any feasible requirements.
I hope to further our learning in the aerospace field through doing more projects that will further our understanding in this never-ending journey of reaching for the skies.

What did I learn:
- I learned how to iterate efficiently through designs when given set parameters that had relationships with each other.
- I learned how to proper real life designs and how there are various factors beyond what is presented to us in online models, and how such factors affect our design's efficiency and how they should be accounted for.
I hope to further iterate through more designs and eventually reach a 100 ft flying distance.

What did I learn:
- How to apply binary algebraic theory to create simple and complex expressions
- Proper circuit techniques
- How to use ICs comfortably
I hope to expand upon my digital electronics knowledge to create even cooler projects that have real world applications.

(Done in high school senior year)

What did I learn:
- Real world application of Karnaugh Mapping
- Conversions between AOI and NAND/NOR logic
- Use 7-segment display

(Done in high school junior year)

What did I learn:
- How to work efficiently with a group to meet all the demanding requirements and aspects of a project + how to properly divide all the tasks to ensure all of them are done on time
- The surface level of just how much planning is required when planning one of these missions + how even the small and seemingly unimportant aspects of the mission can themselves make a huge difference
I hope to take this newfound knowledge and the organizational skills I gained to create much more comprehensive engineering reports in the future.

(Done in my highschool freshman year)

Through this project, I learned the significance of the design process, but more importantly, the value and power of teamwork.

Engineering skills I gained:

Turning engineering sketches into concepts that can be modeled on virtual platforms.
Modeling complex parts and large assemblies on Autodesk Inventor
Creating precise, accurate parts
Writing up a full, professional, engineering report

(Done in high school senior year)

What did I learn:
- How to join various complex systems together into one large, efficient system that can perform a task.
- Further improved upon my design iterating skills
- Learned how to make the most out of the limited parts we had.
