Welcome to my Electrical/Aerospace Engineering Portfolio. This site contains my technical projects, simulations, and system designs.
Projects
In Progess: Designing TFLN-based IM/DD links to increase data-center bandwidth
This work investigates high-speed IM/DD optical transmission using TFLN-based modulation integrated on PICs operating in the O-band. A key emphasis is placed on waveguide crossings, where insertion loss (IL), crosstalk, and back-reflections are analyzed to understand their impact on overall link performance and signal integrity at elevated data rates.
AA-1 Yankee Electrical Propulsion Conversion
Electric propulsion and avionics architecture redesigned project.
In Progress: Initial Design of an Ultra Premium, Long Range Business Jet
Key requirements:
- Minimum cruise speed of Mach 0.85
- 8,000 nautical mile range
- Complies with FAA 14 CFR Part 25
- Takeoff & landing on a 6,000 ft runway
- Capable of VFR and IFR flight
- Seating for 8 passengers (60 in pitch, 22 in width)
- Pressurization capability for 6,000 ft cabin altitude at maximum service ceiling
- Capable of flight in known icing conditions
In Progress: FAR 23 Avionics Certification Report
Certification scope:
- Electrical load analysis across operating cases (normal, abnormal, emergency)
- Essential/non-essential bus and avionics power distribution architecture
- Wire gauge selection using current demand, harness length, and allowable voltage drop
- Circuit protection sizing (breakers/fuses) aligned with load type and wiring limits
- Compliance-style documentation: load tables, wiring schedules, and justification notes
Fly-By-Wire Aircraft Simulation with Yaw and Roll Stabilization
Implemented a Fly-By-Wire (FBW) control system to stabilize an unstable B-2–style aircraft for a precision bombing mission.
Missile Tracking Simulation
3D missile-target interception simulation built in Python.
Circuit Simulation Solver
SPICE-style MNA solver that parses netlists and computes linear and nonlinear circuit behavior using Backward Euler and Newton–Raphson.
