Engineering Physical Systems & Advanced Materials.
I'm Yuri Bendall, a Materials Engineering student with a heavy focus on mechatronics. I bridge the gap between material properties and physical motion—from programming embedded control systems to analyzing stress data on 3D-printed composites.
CAD
SolidWorks / Fusion
Code
C++ / Python / MATLAB
Flagship Build
Automated Kinematic Sorter
A 4-axis robotic system engineered from the ground up. Custom CAD modeling, selected aluminum alloys for weight reduction, and integrated C++ control systems for precise real-time kinematics.
Core Engineering Competencies
My background in software engineering allows me to approach physical hardware design with a highly analytical, systems-level perspective.
Materials Science
Material selection, thermodynamics, failure analysis, and composite properties.
Embedded Systems
C/C++ microcontrollers, sensor integration, control loops, and actuator logic.
CAD & Fabrication
SolidWorks modeling, 3D printing, rapid prototyping, and mechanical tolerancing.
Hardware & Software Projects
A selection of my builds, ranging from software engines to physical rigs.
Custom Physics Controllers
Leveraging my background in custom engine mechanics to design and program precise PID control loops for physical hardware.
