Project : Wind-load effects on civil structures - viewable in Augmented Reality

​

Technical Keywords: Civil Engineering, Unity physics engine, Blender, wind-load effects

​

My role: Research Intern

​

Goal of the project: Utilize the tools available in Blender and Unity physics engines to simulate wind-load effect on tall structures, depending on material, height and speed of the wind. This project was to be viewable in Augmented Reality.

​

My work: 

-Built a wind-load effect monitoring system for civil structures, viewable in Augmented Reality
-Conducted novel research in the physics engines of Unity and Blender software by utilizing different bone structures and types of armatures in Blender to replicate the inherent structure of a building.

-Imported these rigged Blender models into Unity and solved consequent issues.
-Drafted and authored literature reviews, presentations and a technical paper based on Structural Health Monitoring and Wind-load effects in the Civil Engineering domain
