Brilliant ideas and designs from my engineering projects

Growing up

My engineering teacher said that he would use my creations as examples for future courses. Thank you so much! That was such an honor that I think worth sharing on my personal blog.

Although I am not good at drawing, I am really into designing, with help of all sorts of computational tools. There is a blending of art, cares for human and scientific reasoning.

Figure. Designs I like.

A design of anti-aerodynamics motorcycle employs a smoothly curved body, originally prepared for aerodynamics. But it doesn’t follow the law in aerodynamics.
image

What special about this design is, instead of dividing into different parts, this motorcycle design offered a new motorcycle approach that combined most of the pieces into a large smooth body. This can bring harmony to the motorcycle without losing any function.

This is the design for a quadcopter for Space Y program, which should land on the top of towers with ease, under control and convenient for locating.

All unnecessary parts are removed for lighter weight of the landing vehicle and therefore would lead to easier control.

The final designed parts are light-weighted and simple. These are all the needed parts. Simple! Right?

Design language is at times as important as the function. Pens are simple enough objects that are hard for new designs. Instead of making my design more simple or abstract, I would like to make it iconic and maximalism.

I was able to produce a test product of the pen design. However, compared to the finished modeling, there are still a lot of room for improvement, such as structural weakness, color of the ring and of the top part of pen; and also I wish to take on the challenge of making the ball floating.
