Finite element analysis of displacement on an 24 ft aluminum ladder with a 180 lb person on the top rung. This analysis was done on CATIA V5.
This method used tetrahedral meshing with global size of 1.34 in per element and absolute sag of 0.622 in.

CATIA Electrical Harness
This is and electrical harness created in CATIA. It was made by using the Electrical Harness Assembly and Flattening workbenches.
The harness is composed of:
-GPS unit (top)
-PS-5a Connectors (bottom left and middle)
-Processing unit/fuse/diode (center)
-Switch (right)
The harness is composed of:
-GPS unit (top)
-PS-5a Connectors (bottom left and middle)
-Processing unit/fuse/diode (center)
-Switch (right)
The harness was then converted into a 2D drawing for easy assembly.
E-mail me if you would like instructions on how to make these.

Nights in Los Angeles
This photo was from the griffith observatory using a 6 second exposure. Notice how there are airplanes "streak lines" above the city. If the altitude or exact location of the aircraft was know. Speed can be calculated from this image.

Supersonic Nozzle
By using the method of characteristics (a method used to solve hyperbolic
partial differential equations),
Characteristic
lines were found and plotted in Matlab for both a 15° conical and minimum length nozzles.
Temperature and pressure were also plotted
