Internships

DETAILS ARE CONFIDENTIAL UNDER NDA

APPLE: Camera System Control Internship

  • Designed a dynamic plant model in Simulink and MATLAB for new iPhone and iPad camera module based on both constitutive equations and experimental data with multiple system identification techniques.
  • Designed and conducted multiple in-lab experiments with laser autocollimator and positioning system, vibration table with accelerometer sensors, oscilloscopes, etc. and performed data and signal processing in MATLAB.
  • Researched and integrated fundamentals of materials and heat transfer.
  • Analyzed and tested the performance capability of the module and its control methodology.

TESLA: Cell Mechanical Intern in Cell Engineering

  • Comprehensive project detail in Confluence (please search Xiang Ye in Cell Engineering).
  • Designed in CATIA 3DX and manufactured cell testing fixtures in metal and non-metal materials with sensors such as LVDT, load cells, thermocouples, etc., for battery cell abuse tests and cell thermal characterizations.
  • Validated designs with analyses including structural deflections and deformations, tolerance stackings, thermal simulations in MATLAB, material selections, GD&T, sensor precisions, design optimizations, bolt torque, etc.
  • Collaborated with the purchasing team and global vendors for material sourcing, purchasing, and manufacturing.
