Contributed to the sofia-ys/Aircraft-Design repository by developing and refining core aerodynamic and structural analysis tooling over a three-month period. Delivered Python-based modules for aerodynamic data import, Mach-aware lift distribution, and advanced wing structural load calculations, integrating numerical methods and data visualization to support simulation and design validation. Enhanced structural risk assessment through new shear stress and buckling analysis tools, including torque-induced shear flow modeling and detailed wing box calculations. Addressed critical bugs and improved code maintainability through targeted refactoring. Leveraged skills in Python, NumPy, and computational fluid dynamics to enable faster, more reliable design iterations and data-driven engineering decisions.
January 2025 – Aircraft-Design (sofia-ys/Aircraft-Design) monthly summary: Delivered three core tooling features to strengthen wing structural analysis, improved modeling capabilities for shear and buckling, and reinforced integration with existing wing-structure modules. No major bugs reported; minor formatting and integration improvements completed to ensure reliability and repeatability. These changes enable faster design validation, reduce risk of structural errors, and support data-driven design decisions. Key outcomes include: - new avg shear stress tooling (avg_shear.py and avg_shear2.py) integrated with wing-structure modules; - torque-induced shear flow analysis module (shear_flow.py) with multi-configuration support; - enhanced shear/stress and buckling analysis with Wing_Box_Detailed calculations and plotting across components.
