During my Bachelors of Science in Aerospace Engineering [Sophomore Spring 2026], I assigned myself the daily task to get some degreee of exposure on tools that I considered paramount in my Engineering workbench... to learn how to pick up my pen and write my own path.
In the look for an entry point in contributing to Space Exploration, I found a strong interest in Thermofluid Aerodynamic Systems... So I decided to make this 'conditioning loop,' to examine how well I align and improve my theoretical & practical knowledge simultaneously, putting it to a test in a workflow environment by isolating worth-solving problems.
Tools.
- CAD → Design Intent.
- GD&T Proper Dimensioning for Manufacturability
- CFD Proper Usage of Physics Modeling -> Spreadsheet Usage.
- FEA Proper Usage of Physics Modeling.
- Matlab
- Python
- Simulink
- Physics Foundation -> Thermo, Fluids and Solids.
** Documenting with...**
- Overleaf
- Github -> Proper Technical Documentation and Application of Reckon Orb.
- OBS
- LinkedIn Ready to be showcased.
Follow the workflow... Objective → System → Performance Targets → Model → Solidworks → Ansys Workbench → Ansys Mechanical → Ansys Fluent
Ultimately strengthening the approach on...
- physics-based modeling
- coding for analysis
- geometry with intent
- simulation with purpose
- interpretation of results
- technical documentation
Applying the following Orbs...
