Colin Wolfbader Email and Phone Number

Team lead in thermal analysis. Responsible for maintenance and management of our product through its full lifecycle. Working with management, structural engineers, designers, production engineers, and clients on a daily basis.

• Write MATLAB scripts to create print paths for fiber arrays used in mechanical testing• Perform constant strain tensile test on fibers to determine mechanical characteristics of material• Develop numerical models for linear and non-linear behaviors of material

Providing assistance to students during lecture on in-class assignments. Additionally, I am in charge of grading the homework assignments and entering grades. Our two languages we teach are Matlab and Arduino (which is a variance of C++).

• Write MATLAB scripts to create print paths of complex geometries for fiber arrays used in deformation testing• Design and manufacture strain rig used in microCT machine• Create a Repeating Unit Cell (RUC) model of the fiber array in Abaqus CAE• Write MATLAB scripts to read and manipulate Abaqus input file creating periodic boundary conditions for desired geometries

• Produce floor plans for manufacturing equipment using AutoCAD• Provide engineer’s mindset for problem solving• Involved with manufacturing processes and improvements in manufacturing flow
