Aluminum Carabiner FEA and Optimization

This project uses finite element analysis to evaluate stress in an aluminum carabiner and explore design changes aimed at improving performance and reducing unnecessary material.

What I worked on

  • Analyzed the performance of an aluminum carabiner using finite element methods.
  • Evaluated how geometry and design choices affect stress, performance, and optimization decisions.
  • Documented the design-analysis process in a formal engineering report.
