Project Work

This project focused on designing and reviewing a compact two-stage transmission. I worked on MATLAB performance modeling, gear-ratio selection, speed/torque/efficiency estimates, SolidWorks CAD, keyed shafts, bearings, gears, shaft supports, machining constraints, and PDR/CDR design review materials.
