Design for changeability, Design margins, Change propagation, Engineering design

I am a PhD student at North Carolina State University studying mechanical engineering. I am broadly interested in engineering design methodology with specific interest in design under uncertainty, design for changeability, and design of complex systems. Currently, I am a Graduate Research Assistant in the Systems, Decisions, and Objectives Lab at NC State and a Pathways Intern in NASA Langley’s Systems Analysis and Concepts Directorate.
