Synopsis:
Synopsis:
Engineered a lightweight, high-strength swingarm for the Yamaha YZF R1 via reverse engineering and iterative design. Applied CAD modeling and finite element analysis (FEA) to optimize structural performance and reduce weight, culminating in a final prototype with improved safety and efficiency.
 Highlighted Skills & Contributions
Reverse Engineering: Developed CAD models based on real-world component analysis.
Material Selection: Applied knowledge of Aluminum 7075 for its optimal strength-to-weight ratio and mechanical properties.
FEA & Simulation: Modeled multi-axial load scenarios (braking, cornering) using FEA to assess stress and displacement.
Iterative Optimization: Performed mass reduction through design iterations, constantly evaluating factor of safety (FOS) and structural reliability.
Load Calculations: Computed braking, cornering, and combined load cases, including center of gravity shift and real-use factors.
Technical Documentation: Documented process, decisions, and results with clear tables, figures, and engineering justifications.
