Project Overview:
Develop the redesign of the MH-47G and MH-60M Projector Support Structures (PSS) 

Customer:
Flight Safety Visual Systems

Services Performed:
Provided structural design and analysis of the MH-47G and MH-60M projector support systems redesign.

Structural Analysis:

• Evaluated simulator excursions to ensure fit in facility
• Performed mass balancing and weight reduction studies
• Generated detailed Finite Element (FE) Model of the re-designed components on the full systems including the projector platforms and chin windows
• Performed modal, static stress, and buckling analyses
• Provided detailed analysis of the PSS and its connections to existing structure

Engineering Design:

• Developed new designs for complex components while reusing less complex, non-structural components
• Evaluated pro and cons of each design considering strength, cost, manufacturability, and reliability
• Generated STEP and SolidWorks files for the redesigned components
• Participated in weekly teleconferences with Flight Safety Visual Systems
