Aurélien Pons' ePortfolio

Final-year Mechanical Engineering student working across the full design-analysis-validation cycle for Formula Student. I design and package chassis geometry in Siemens NX, validate structures through FEA in Altair HyperMesh, and take parts from first-principles requirements through to manufactured carbon-fibre hardware — taking ownership of a subsystem end to end and learning by doing, from prototyping and testing to the shop floor. Ready for a hands-on internship where I can own real hardware. Currently building GD&T and CATIA proficiency.
