CAD PROJECTS
SolidWorks Modeling
Ball Valve Model
Goals
- Individually model each component, applying distinct colors to maintain organization and clearly differentiate moving elements.
- Build a fully constrained assembly with accurate mates to control motion only where required for proper ball-valve function.
- Generate section views, exploded configurations, and motion animations to showcase internal geometry, assembly order, and handle actuation.
Role
Individual Project
Timeline
October 2024 - December 2024
Tools
- SolidWorks
Results
- Developed a 3D a working ball valve model.
- Integrated animations to fully display the model and how it works/is put together.
Propeller Model
Goals
- Build a fully constrained assembly with properly meshed gears and appropriate mates to ensure synchronized rotation, accurate gear-ratio behavior, and smooth motion without tooth skipping.
- Generate clear views and motion animations to demonstrate internal gear operation, assembly order, and the final propeller actuation.
Role
Individual Project
Timeline
September 2024 - October 2024
Tools
- SolidWorks
Results

Rhinoceros 3D Modeling
Gwathmey Residence Model
Goals
- Develop a 3D model recreation of famous architectural building (The Gwathmey Residence Studio)
- Incorporate architectural techniques and patterns to build neat model as efficiently as possible.
- Explore other patterns and methods of modeling to display 3D model in easily comprehendible ways.
Role
Individual Project
Timeline
February 2024 - April 2024
Tools
- Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino 8 Modeling)
Results
- Developed a 3D model of the Gwathmey Residence Studio.
- Explored different views such as perspective, isometric, and x-ray along with different patterns and styles such as Shaded (Black and White & Color), Rendered, and Ghosted.
- Integrated automated patterns for spiral stair case as well as slanted roof top for most efficient modeling process.
- Redefined Model by integrating model into a topographic landscape made to show further use of modeling software and manipulation of automated patterns and features.
Sunshade Model
Goals
- Develop a 3D model for a sunshade using a 6 step rule set.
- Render model to display real life sun effects on modeled sunshade.
- Explore different techniques to depict sunshade to possible clients.
Role
Individual Project
Timeline
April 2024 - May 2024
Tools
- Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino 8 Modeling)
- Enscape
- Adobe Photoshop / Illustrator
Results
- Developed a 3D a sunshade model from a short simple rule set.
- Used rendering software to test sunshade in real life situations.
- Made collage and textured views of model to depict possible uses for clients.
