Introduction: For my Senior Design project I teamed up with three other Tufts students and worked under the guidance of an engineer at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center to develop a proof-of-concept design for a lifting body which would be used to collect data on Uranus. Our goal was to prove it is possible to …

Background: My Role: My job was to develop an acoustic model of sound wave propagation in the tube in order to predict what pressures the MEMS microphones should be reading given an input frequency. Acoustic models are common and well documented, however this one was uniquely challenging for a few reasons: My Process I used …
