I am a Mechanical Engineering graduate (MEng Hons) with a deep passion for solving real-world problems at the intersection of design, simulation and intelligent computations. My portfolio includes desigining an opening mechanism for a swing bridge to applying Finite Element Anslysis (FEA) principles to solve strucutral problems. I enjoy integrating CAD modelling and FEA/CFD simulations with tools like Python, MATLAB and C++ to develop engineering solutions suitable for real-world applications.

My Work

Project Highlights

Bridge Opening Mechanism

Rotating Bridge Opening Mechanism


As the Mechanical Lead, I designed and simulated the full swing-bridge opening mechanism, including hydraulic lifting, torque transmission, braking, and locking subsystems. My work focused on mechanical feasibility, structural loads, motor sizing, and FEA-based stress validation.

Tools: SolidWorks, MATLAB, FEA Simulations

Pressurised container

FEA of Pressurized Truss Structure


Simulated and optimized a truss-based containment frame using both a MATLAB solver and ABAQUS. Evaluated deformation, removed redundant elements, reinforced supports, and tested material substitutions under varying loads.

Tools: MATLAB, ABAQUS

Digital Twins Telepresence Robot

Digital Twins & Smart Manufacturing


As the Project Lead, I critically reviewed Digital Twin technologies and implemented the full case study design and manufacturing strategy for a telepresence robot, integrating Industry 4.0/5.0 concepts with CAD/CAM workflows.

Tools: SolidWorks CAM, Vizcom, Design & Product Development Phases
