MD ASIF
Propulsion & Vehicle Dynamics Engineer specializing in structural FEA analysis, multi-axis kinematic systems, and Stirling thermodynamic cryocooler simulations.
SELECTED PROJECTS
WHEEL ASSEMBLY
VEHICLE DYNAMICS / FEA / MANUFACTURE
- — Designed custom lightweight hub & steering knuckle for ESVC solar car.
- — Optimized corner structural integrity using Finite Element Analysis (FEA).
- — Reduced total unsprung mass while preserving critical load handling parameters.
F35-3BSM KINEMATICS
REVERSE ENGINEERING / CAD / PRODUCT DESIGN
- — Reverse-engineering the F-35 thrust-vectoring nozzle kinematics layout.
- — Simulating multi-axis 3-bearing gear rotation matrices for VTOL transitions.
STIRLING CRYOCOOLER
THERMODYNAMICS / FEA & CFD / CAD
- — Formulated 1D thermodynamic model in Python/MATLAB via Schmidt theory (5 W at 80 K).
- — Engineered 3D CAD assemblies for compressor, mesh regenerator, and displacer in SolidWorks.
- — Analyzed CFD/transient thermal mesh matrices and simulated COP to yield 15% efficiency boost.
