Modeled and fabricated a cylindrical, 3D printed, PLA structure to withstand a load-bearing weight of 50lbs. Utilizing Fusion and Finite Element Analysis we modeled and simulated stress to achieve a minimum safety factor of 1.29, while also achieving a 60% reduction in material mass.

My primary responsibilities included conceptualizing structural solutions, performing initial design work in CAD, and preliminary simulations, using Autodesk Fusion. I actively lead the development of our innovative cross-bracing and truss-style geometry, a strategy specifically chosen to enhance material efficiency and support a simulated 50lb load.
