I first authored a paper concerning the impact of joint angle on elbow boomerang flight. This included developing a mathematical model for elbow boomerang mass parameters, deriving expressions for aerodynamic forces on boomerangs using blade element theory, designing and 3D printing elbow boomerangs, and performing experiments on the field with said boomerangs. I wrote a manuscript and presented my research at the AIAA Aviation Forum which took place in June of 2023.
