  • Gimbal Joints for Bleed Air Systems

    Filed US US20200393067A1

    A sealed joint assembly for transmitting high temperature and high pressure fluid between adjoining ducts in, for example, an aircraft bleed air system, includes a gimbal ring and two annular clevises. Each clevis includes a pair of axially-extending lobes that each includes a bore hole extending therethrough. The bore holes of the clevis lobes may each align with a respective bore hole formed within the gimbal ring, through which a pin may be inserted to couple the clevises to the gimbal ring.…

    A sealed joint assembly for transmitting high temperature and high pressure fluid between adjoining ducts in, for example, an aircraft bleed air system, includes a gimbal ring and two annular clevises. Each clevis includes a pair of axially-extending lobes that each includes a bore hole extending therethrough. The bore holes of the clevis lobes may each align with a respective bore hole formed within the gimbal ring, through which a pin may be inserted to couple the clevises to the gimbal ring. The clevises and gimbal ring may be formed using additive manufacturing, to produce component geometries and topologies that reduce the overall weight of the joint assembly while maintaining or improving its structural integrity. For example, the clevis lobes may include a plurality of gaps, such that the remaining material forms a shear web. The gimbal ring may also include strut or truss networks to enhance structural integrity.

  • Integrated Drain Mast Structure

    Filed US US20190276131A1

    An integrated drain mast structure for use in draining fluids emanating from aircraft components, such as turbine engines and fuselages, for facilitating the detection of fluids leaking from said components. A self-supporting tube section including a plurality of generally aligned fluid passages each having a peripheral wall, at least a portion of which is common with at least a portion of another aligned adjacent fluid passage is connected to one or more of these aircraft components. An…

A self-supporting tube section including a plurality of generally aligned fluid passages each having a peripheral wall, at least a portion of which is common with at least a portion of another aligned adjacent fluid passage is connected to one or more of these aircraft components. An aerodynamic fairing includes a plurality of fairing fluid passages each connected to a respective fluid passage of the tube section and having respective fluid outlets. The tube section and fairing section can comprise a single integral structure.

  • Senior Aerospace SSP - Bombardier CSeries ECS System Testing

    - Present

    Designed and implemented qualification tests to support the certification of the Bombardier CSeries aircraft.
    Environmental/ Endurance Testing: I designed the system and then led a team of people including software engineers and technicians to implement a fully automated system to conduct pressurization and internal temperature variation cycles while simultaneously varying the ambient conditions. The test will now run fully automated for a year.

  • Flame Tower

    -

    Worked with a team of 10 graduate and undergraduate students in the design and construction of the Flame Tower and associated components, on a research grant awarded by NASA. First experiment run in Summer 2011. Designed and built a system to test flame spread rates in a microgravity environment. The system includes a 20"x20"x26' vacuum chamber, 25' linear movement rail/stepper motor, and a sample mount/data capture platform. Responsible for continuous integration of new requirements based upon…
