We are looking for an experienced 3D CAD designer to assist with the design and modelling of a honeybee-inspired flapping-wing micro aerial vehicle (MAV) as part of our Final Year Project (FYP) in Mechanical Engineering. Anyone

About the job

We require the following three deliverables:

1. Honeybee Model for ANSYS Fluent CFD Simulation

- Develop a 3D CAD model of a honeybee-inspired drone, including its body and wings.
- Ensure the geometry is suitable for aerodynamic analysis in ANSYS Fluent.
- The model should support the study of lift, drag, pressure distribution, velocity distribution, and aerodynamic performance.
- Provide a clean, simulation-ready model with appropriate geometry and export formats.

2. 3D Model of the Flapping-Wing Mechanism

- Design a functional mechanical mechanism to convert motor rotation into the reciprocating motion required for wing flapping.
- Model the necessary components, including gears, linkages, shafts, wing connections, and motor mounting, as applicable.
- Ensure the mechanism is practical, lightweight, compact, and suitable for prototype fabrication.
- Provide individual component models and a complete mechanism assembly.

3. Complete Bee Drone Assembly and Engineering Drawings

- Integrate the bee body, wings, flapping mechanism, motor, and other essential components into a complete 3D drone assembly.
- Ensure the design is mechanically feasible and suitable for fabrication and assembly.
- Provide detailed engineering drawings, dimensions, and assembly drawings.
- Deliver editable CAD files and suitable neutral formats, such as STEP, for further modifications and manufacturing.

Preferred Software: SOLIDWORKS
