This document contains summaries of several modeling projects completed by an engineering student at Virginia Tech using Autodesk software. The projects include an FEA model of a NERF blaster assembly, a CFD model of airflow in a cabinet with over 3KW of heat generating components, and a CFD model of air flowing over a truck spoiler that was used for a senior design capstone project. Dynamic models were also created of simple mechanical assemblies using Autodesk Inventor.

- 1. Interior of NERF Hammershot Modeled for Mechanical Design (ME 3614) at Virginia Tech Program used: Autodesk Inventor FEA Model of Assembly for Capstone Senior Design (ME 4016) at Virginia Tech. Completed 2/20/15 Program used: Autodesk Inventor
- 2. CFD Model of a cabinet with components generating over 3KW of heat energy. The image on the left shows airflow through the cabinet as well its change in temperature. The image below models the speed of air outflow based on the number and configuration of inlet fans. Completed for The Center for Vehicle and Systems Safety (CVeSS) at Virginia Tech over the summer of 2014 Programs used: Autodesk Inventor, Simulation CFD, and Simulation Multiphysics.
- 3. Above: CFD Model of air flowing over a spoiler mounted to the back of a truck. This model was used for Capstone Senior design (ME 4016) to validate that the spoiler assembly would generate a downwash effect. Programs Used: Autodesk Flow Design Left: Dynamic model of a simple assembly. The floating shaft was given an arbitrary torque and the assembly moved the spring accordingly. Programs Used: Autodesk Inventor (Dynamic Simulation)
