STRUCTURES
Engineering/FEA

FreeCAD + CalculiX

Linear buckling analysis of thin-walled PET bottle. FEA predicted local shell instability at 1.49 kN - 5.8× below material crushing limits.

PROJECTS / 04

Propellent Mass Fraction Optimizer

Python + NumPy

Numerical trajectory simulator for a 1.5L PET pressure vessel water rocket. Parametric sweep identified 35% fill ratio at 3 bar as optimal for 33.06m max altitude.
