CAD Administrator, Structures Team Lead
Teams were tasked with developing a Hyperloop Pod solution to work with SpaceX's track system. If the team progresses through the ideation and deisgn portions of the competition successfully they are invited to bring their prototype out to SpaceX's headquarters in California for a test run.
Led Structures team and the design of the fuselage consisting of the composite floor and carbon fiber shell. Fabricated a composite floor consisting of carbon outer layers and a foam core for reduced weight without loss in structural rigidity. Fabricated custom inserts to interface the composite floor with the drivetrain without causing damage to the lightweight floor. Learned carbon fiber fabrication techniques from industry experts CAD PDM Administrator for all sub teams
