Dalhousie Supermilage 

The Shell Eco-Marathon competition brings together engineering students from across North America to design and build ultra fuel efficient vehicles. While a student at Dalhousie University, I participated in the project for three years and was the team captain during my final year. 

Projects I completed:

• Design of Urban Concept vehicle drive train

  • Performed calculations to determine required gear ratio, shaft diameters, and chain size

  • Designed two stage gear reduction to transfer power to drive wheels

  • Designed engine mounting plate for water-jet cutting

• Designed a foam negative for carbon fiber body

• Wrote a Matlab script to process dynamometer testing data to generate torque and power curves that improved fuel consumption

• Helped mentor new members and coordinated team projects
