Intrepid Robot
This was the final project in my electromechanical systems class. For phase one of the project, my partner and I were tasked with making an “intrepid” robot that could drive up a steep ramp. For phase two, the task was to have the robot work…

Spindle Analysis
In this project I analyzed static and dynamic failure of a drill press spindle undergoing worst-case loading. I used analytical and finite-element analyses to determine factors of safety corresponding to each failure mode. For static failure I considered the Rankine and Distortion-Energy theories. For fatigue…
