Worked on an IRAD funded project to assess the feasibility of producing the ALFS housings and water shield assembly on the MH-60R Naval Helicopter with additive manufacturing processes. Researched the additive manufacturing industry and outlined the relevant manufacturing possibilities to management. Re-designed the ALFS water shield for the chosen additive manufacturing process using CATIA V4. Conducted finite element analysis of the water shield and housings using ANSYS. Created a statement of work and modeled coupons for Armstrong Manufacturing to investigate the implementation of fasteners and an adhered poly-liner on a 3-D printed ALFS housing. Worked with 3-D printing suppliers and Lockheed Martin experts in additive manufacturing.
