Anniversary Bushfire Exhibit

Our team developed a travelling museum exhibit for the Fire Service Museum of Victoria to present the impact of major Victorian bushfires, and tell the stories of those affected by them. Our project group researched newspaper, book, and video archives and conducted interviews with firefighters. The gathered information was incorporated into the exhibit in the form of several displays, iPad-based interactive timelines, and museum artifacts. The Anniversary Bushfire Exhibit will be displayed in different locations across Victoria, thus, all exhibit components were designed to be portable and easily configurable to any room size

Modelling and Testing Aluminum Based High Entropy Alloys

The purpose of this project was assist in the modeling, casting, and testing of aluminum based high entropy alloys. The goal was to create a castable alloy having more tensile strength than traditional aluminum alloys, while retaining properties such as being light weight and cost effective. This was done by modeling and casting alloys with FCC structures initially composed of aluminum, zinc, and magnesium, and later composed of aluminum, zinc, magnesium, copper, and silicon. This was done by conducting tensile test and castability experiments of the composed alloys to compare to other present alloys
