Posts that I wrote for/about my senior capstone project for my Aerospace Engineering Undergrad.

Systems Engineering

Continuous Integration and Systems Engineering

Summary The document discusses the challenges of managing a complex, multi-domain project with a small team, particularly when team members have varying expertise. The author's Capstone team faces additional difficulties due to the majority being astronautical engineers, making the embedded software aspect of their project particularly challenging. To

Air Propulsion Simulation

Summary The document describes a capstone project simulating the performance of a compressed air propulsion system as an alternative to solid rocket motors for moving mining equipment on the Moon. The simulation uses a paintball gun tank as the pressure vessel, chosen for its high pressure-to-weight ratio. The nozzle diameter
