Letter of Self-Introduction

Subject: Self-Introduction Dear Professor Brad, My name is Pay Xuan Ju. I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic in 2017 with a Diploma in Aeronautical and Aerospace Technology. During the three years in polytechnic, my interest and passion for engineering grew as I realized how closely related it is to our everyday life. Hence, I decided to switch to Mechanical Engineering as it covers a wider aspect of engineering. I believe that Mechanical Engineering is more applicable to our lives and the knowledge I gain through this course will be beneficial to my future job prospects. Furthermore, the demand for Mechanical Engineers is growing rapidly in Singapore as we further progress into a technological hub. Having grown up in a Chinese speaking family, I am more well-versed in Mandarin. I often find myself stumbling to find the right words to communicate effectively in English. My standard of English has impacted my confidence level and as a result, communicating with professiona...

Assignment 2: Design Summary & Analysis

From the article, “Where’s My Supersuit '', Zelik (2019), it is stated that human exoskeletons are under development for injury prevention, public use, and numerous other application suggestions. These human exoskeletons are known to be expensive, bulky, and uncomfortable, but despite this, most people actually reap benefits from this creation. Initially developed to reduce job burnout 5 years ago, these motorised exo-suits were further developed to provide targeted assistance to the legs, arms and hands as a guide to proper lifting techniques and resistance training. On top of the basic functions of the exoskeleton, the creation is accompanied by the development of a spring-powered exo-suit that aids in the walking and running of ankle muscles. The human exoskeleton is also a useful product when it comes to preventing injuries as well as to provide support and enhancement to patients with spinal cord injuries. One useful function of the exoskeleton is to help workers preven...

Critical Reflection

The initial goals I set for myself was to improve my writing skills and to be able to speak more confidently by the end of this module. I am proud to say that I managed to exceed my expectations with the help of Prof.Brad and school peers. After knowing what is required for this module while looking through the module I was enrolled in before the tri start, I knew I had to step out of my comfort zone and try to take the initiative to speak in proper English instead of singlish. Thankfully, Professor Brad has been guiding us throughout. Throughout the course of this module, we were tasked to do in-class activity with different peers like paraphrasing an article and giving feedback to different peers. This is when my peers started to correct my sentence structure and grammar, I am glad that Prof. Brad would come to aid us whenever he saw mistakes.  In the group project assignment, I did a lot of research which could help towards my group project, thus I felt that as I rea...
