“…Other simulation tools such as OpenRocket, NASA CEA, and LabView will also be used for results comparison. A previous study by [10] explored the use of additive manufacturing in the design and analysis of LPRE nozzle. This forms the benchmark on which subsequent simulation by the MSU rocketry team will rely.…”

where he conducts qualitative and quantitative research works leading to development. He has participated and led several research work being published in reputable journals and presented at several international conferences.Mr. Marc J Louise Orque Caballes, Morgan State University Mr. Marc Caballes was born and raised in Bogo City, Philippines. He arrived here in America last 2009. As a kid, every time his Mom asked him to do something, he always looked for the most efficient approach to get the job done. Thus, it is no surprise that he is currently pursuing a doctorate in Systems Engineering at Morgan State University (MSU), where his Professors help him enhance his capabilities in looking for the most optimal solution while delivering quality results. Some people might say that it is okay to make mistakes as long as you learn from them. However, Mr. Caballes beg to differ. For him, it is more convenient to eliminate that "mistake" before it happens. Hence, he always wants to have an outcome of a 99.9998% success rate (mistake-proof). Marc has extensive knowledge and experience in Additive Manufacturing (AM), 3D Modeling and Design, Design of Experiments (DOE), Systems and Reliability Engineering, Lean Practices and Techniques, and Process Simulations.Aside from being a Professor in Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering Department at Baltimore City Community College (BCCC), Marc is the team lead in MSU's Liquid Propellant Rocket Subtask Team, where he reviews and designs the essential rocket components such as the nose cone and all the way to the rocket's boat tail. In addition, he is also responsible for leading diverse and highly motivated engineering students in the RockOn program, where they implement and test a rocket payload that can measure and record the acceleration, humidity, pressure, temperature, and radiation counts during flight. The payload system was launched on NASA's Terrier Improved-Orion Sounding Rocket at their flight facility in Wallops, Virginia, and was successfully recovered at the Atlantic Ocean. Marc made several presentations and publications in domestic and international conferences, including MDSGC, FTC, ASEE, SISE, ICTAA, INCOSE, and INFORMS. His maxim in life is, "Never confuse movement with progress. Because you can run in places and not get anywhere."

Additive manufacturing, particularly 3D printing, has garnered significant attention recently due to its flexibility, precision, and sustainability. Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)-based 3D printers are among the most popular in the field due to their low cost, practical usage, and print quality. However, one of the major disadvantages of these 3D printers is low print quality or print resolution. The major factor affecting print quality is the nozzle design, including nozzle geometry. Thus, many works in the literature have focused on enhancing 3D printing quality, especially on the nozzle design, which has a substantial impact on printing performance. In this study, the effects of nozzle geometry in three aspects were investigated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) perspective: the die angle, and the outlet’s size and shape. The CFD results show that the die angle primarily affects the shear stresses developed in the nozzle, the outlet’s size predominantly impacts velocity and pressure difference, and the outlet’s shape affects shear stress, velocity, and pressure difference to a lesser extent compared to the die angle and size.
