My work

Research Project

Currently, my colleagues and I, led by Professor Solomon Boakye-Yiadom, are designing a Torsional Split Hopkinson Bar. We are working towards building a mechanism that tests the torsional strength of specimens. This design will then be introduced to and used by the Ministry of Defense of Canada. Below is one of the designs for the clamp that I have personally created in Solid Works which have contributed to the overall design of the mechanism. This project requires a strong degree confidence in dynamics, mechanics of Materials and Solid Works.

Mini Design Project

This second year university project consisted of creating a design for a mechanism that can transport people over a river. Through the engineering process, our team brainstormed, designed, simulated and troubleshooted to finalize a prototype. This project required strong collaborative skills and confidence in mechanics of materials and Solid Works. Below is our final report of the cart mechanism.

The Mask Project

This project consisted of creating an animal mask and was one of the first, complex shapes I created in Solid Works. It represents a milestone that I surpassed while working towards becoming fluent in Solid Works. At the time, the organic shapes associated with this mask, were overwhelming and required persistence to complete. Below are a series of images of the drawn mask.
