During my internship with the TWD mechanical team, I played a pivotal role in two significant projects. The first, BLIT SF re-design, involved repositioning a Boat Landing Installation Tool (BLIT) on a vessel used in various global locations. My responsibilities included revising the structural analysis of the BLIT and incorporating changes in position and connection points on the deck. The goal was to maintain the structure while ensuring its integrity in different environmental conditions. The resulting calculations and conclusions were compiled into a comprehensive structural analysis report for the client.

In the second project, Upending Hinge detailed design, I joined a team in the detailing phase of designing an upending hinge for monopile installation in seabeds. My tasks encompassed analyzing structural integrity, calculating dimensions for machine elements, and creating a Finite Element Method (FEM) model of the skid frame. I also worked on redesigning the skid cylinder interface to accommodate dimensional restrictions. Additionally, I participated in the quality phase, where meticulous checks were conducted on the methods, numerical values, and overall approval of the project. This phase highlighted the importance of effective communication and thorough checking to ensure the accuracy and completeness of calculations and design elements.
