• Supported the University with the construction of a wind tunnel on a new campus as part of their strategic priority.
• Identified issues with the wind tunnel where the velocity distribution is non-uniform after the U-turn section.
• Provided leadership to the project team to articulate identified issues with the construction company and communicate precise requirements.
• Illustrated the wind tunnel structure by gathering existing drawings and scaling down the illustration in acrylic plates to a ratio of 16:1.
• Fusion360 and SolidWorks were used to determine the dimensions of each component and the assembly methods.
• Developed an automated mechanical traverse system that controlled the Pilot Tube's movement in various directions.

• Supported the Lead Professor in preparing and delivering lecturers in both in-person and remote settings.
• Provided technical support and academic guidance to students during laboratory sessions (e.g. designing CNC laboratory).
• Facilitated tutoring sessions on modelling techniques using SolidWorks, AutoCAD and PrusaSlicer.
• Shared sound engineering knowledge with the ability to uplift the student's technical capabilities.
• Led the development of instructional materials for SolidWorks and 3D printing in line with student learning needs.
• Supervised students throughout their research project while offering constructive feedback and positive recognition.

• Led the construction of the University's first high-precision, temperature-controlled wind tunnel floor.
• Identified an optimal type of roughness to improve heat transfer by 10% through extensive investigation, experiments, and CFD simulations.
• Established experimental methods to demonstrate the presence of KH rollers on roughness surfaces.
• Worked as a part of a small team to prepare correspondence for not only the University but also external parties such as government agencies.
• Maintained constant communication with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (in regards to research progress and any emerging issues.
