AvtechTyee
Smart Design Database
AvTechTyee currently designs every new tie rod from scratch making every part of it unique. AvTechTyee currently uses a 50+ year old parts catalog to see if they have a similar rod that has been qualified and approved. This student team worked to create a smart database for which AvTechTyee would enter specific and critical parameters and get a return on if there is currently a rod that is similar. This student team also aimed to take these parameters and have the database output them into an Excel file that feeds into AvTechTyee's CAD and FEA packages to output models and simulations with little to no human intervention.
