Michael Gondhi Steve Brink Steve DeMaagd Jasper Gondhi Tyler Vandongen • THE TEAM
THE GOAL Colossians 3:17 “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.”
PRIMARY GOAL Design and develop a working prototype of human powered amphibious vehicle (AV) by applying the principles of an engineering design process from concept to production. THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
SECONDARY GOALS Speed on Land of 15 mph Speed on Water of 2 mph Successful Braking on Land Successful Transitions between Land and Water THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
Design Goals • Water: • Buoyancy • Stability • Getting on/off • Turning radius Land: • Speed • Braking • Turning radius • Stability THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION

FRAME THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
FRAME – Finite Element Analysis Maximum Deflection: 0.08 in. Direction of Force • MODEL W/ FEA THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
DRIVE TRAIN FRONT AXLE PADDLE WHEEL AXLE THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
DRIVE TRAIN – FRONT AXLE Minimize Axle Length: 66 in. - 62 in. 0.75 in. 0.475 in. THANK YOU PROJECT OVERVIEW DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING CONCLUSION
DRIVE TRAIN – PADDLE WHEEL AXLE Paddle Wheel Axle Aluminum Tubing Wheels Flotation Initial safety factor used for flotation = 2 Result: Vehicle floats too muchand paddle wheels don’t hit water as they are placed with respect to the flotation Change: Paddle wheel assembly lowered to match necessary height.
