Experiments in automation, measurement and control.
Smaller experiments where I test an idea, record the result and decide what to change next.
A
ORD AUTOMATION
Automating an ORD calculation workflow.
A Python workflow that takes Optical Rotatory Dispersion calculations from raw input files to checked output.
Focus Areas
Python end-to-end workflow
Empirical decision algorithm
Automated parameter optimisation
B
MOTOR CONTROL
Controlling and measuring a DC motor.
An Arduino-based DC motor setup that combines a soldered circuit, external sensors, PWM control and C code.
Focus Areas
Soldered circuit from diagrams
PWM + external sensors
Rotation rate + pressure
I also write short notes about what these experiments taught me.
