Thesis
I haven't been able to do a lot of work on my Thesis this week, but I did manage to get a few things done.

  • I was able to to start doing Star-CCM analysis on my QTR model:

 An Iso view of the QTR during a flow simulation at 65 mph.


Here's a side view too.  I clearly still have some work with refining the aero design.

  • I submitted by Research Proposal to Dr. Zefran from UIC's Robotics Laboratory and he approved it, and he also stated that I will be able to have lab space in his lab as well.
  • The Senior Design Team took out their test plane again and got a lot better test data than the previous flight.  We are still going over the data to develop transfer functions of the plant models.
