Bootstrapped but on a mission—AEDDIX is out to democratize digital services for SMEs across industries using open-source and IoT technologies. From pharma to gastronomy, IoT is becoming an undeniable pillar of innovation that's often misunderstood and poorly served in small businesses. We're here to change that and provide smarter services, throwing in some ML and AI magic along the way when possible, and core digital engineering when it's missing.Stay tuned.

Rotation 2:Second assignment entailed the modeling of a space-frame-tower for multi-megawatt wind turbines within a multibody simulation environment for load determination prior to prototyping. Corollary duties include cross-functional support for a structural wind turbine blade NTI project. US Patent holder for novel wind turbine blade root concept.Rotation 1:Assignment pertained to the tuning of an acoustic simulation tool for wind turbine blade noise emission predictions. Corollary responsibilities included low-noise field test campaign data analysis and post-processing.

Salzbergen, Germany

Thesis objective was to identify betterment avenues for multi-megawatt wind turbine blade root connections. This exercise entailed the conduction of a multi-variable DOE under the APDL Ansys FEA environment and run through Matlab. A DFSS approach was used through the course of the project, and interpretation of the fitness of the solutions was rendered feasible by answering the CTQs associated with the inherent problematic.
