Luis Mauricio Castro Ugalde

Theoretical and practical experience in manufacturing processes, object-oriented programming, machine element design, computer-aided design, and mechanisms. Knowledge and skills in teamwork leadership.

I am a motivated person in solving problems that help customers to achieve their expectations.

• DESIGN OF MACHINE ELEMENTS (2020 - 01 / 2020 - 07)

This was a project in which the objective was to develop the ability to design machine elements for given conditions.

In the process I learned to calculate and select bands, chains, springs, shafts, gears and bearings.

• AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING (2021 - 01 / 2021 - 07)

Project in which the objective was to learn and develop the process of designing a vehicle, going through all the stages that it requires (engineering, creativity, regulations, models, virtual prototypes, tests, feedback, etc).

In the process I understood the suspension, transmission and steering systems, I know the different types and the points that must be taken into account, mechanically I understand their operation without neglecting active and passive safety.

Regarding the body and chassis, I learned about the factors that must be taken into account such as materials, manufacturing process, ease of repair, spare parts, rigidity, vibrations and durability.

I made calculations, designs and simulations in Solidworks to observe the behavevior of the structure under torsional and bending forces and energy distribution in different impacts.

Project to learn and develop the process of designing a vehicle, going through engineering, creativity, regulations, models, virtual prototypes, tests and feedback.

- Selection of transmission, suspension and steering systems according to design requirements, considering active and passive safety.

- Analysis of materials, manufacturing process, ease of repair, spare parts, rigidity, vibrations and durability.

- Chassis design and simulations in Solidworks to analyze its structure under torsional, bending forces and energy distribution using finite element analysis.
