Senior Design: Oscillatory Flume
I collaborated in a team of 4 ME's to design and assemble a fully functioning small-scale oscillatory flume for Dr. Chamorro. The flume ran an ODrive P + PI cascade position controller capable of achieving square, triangle, and sine waves with an amiplitude range of 10-30 cm and a frequency range of 0.1-0.5 Hz. I designed the rack & pinion drive train, its mounting components, and the 8020 extrusion structure along with assisting with the BLDC tuning. We won 2nd/32 teams for Best Trade Show Exhibit.
