ACADEMIC PROJECTS:

Advanced CAD (Pro-E Creo2.0, Pro-E Wildfire 5.0, Pro-Mechanica): June ’14 - July‘14

Designing of intricate assemblies involving connection rod, crankshaft and other complex geometries.

Creating models involving Geometric Dimensioning &Tolerancing. (GD&T)

Static and dynamic analysis for 3D and 2D (plan stress, plane strain and beam models) models using Pro-Mechanica.

Thermal analysis of models and Optimization techniques used for geometries.

Worked on a project to calculate and simulate stresses in a bicycle frame for various load and material conditions. Designed the 3D model in Pro-Eand applied the stresses and constraints and analyzed the same in Pro-Mechanica, Found the maximum load the design can withstand without failing.

Creating and maintaining BOM.

Industrial Pollution Prevention: Jan’15-May’15

A team of five members visited the Inman Electric Motors plant to conduct energy audit.

Total energy and gas usage was charted and filed along with all the equipment’s and electrical objects that were used (Ovens, Compressors, Lightings, and Trucks).

Nine assessment recommendations which would potentially reduce the cost and increase the efficiency were calculated.

The total costs saving of these recommendations were $7800/year with total energy savings of 55688 Kwh /year with a simple payback period of 1.13 years.

Problems in Advanced Dynamics Jan ’14 – May ‘14

Standard specifications and dimensions of a slider crank mechanism was studied

The slider crank mechanism was designed and modeled with the standard dimension using Pro-E Creo2.0modeling software to understand the concepts of kinematics and dynamics design.

The mechanism was simulated and kinematic analysis and position analysis of the mechanisms were carried out using Pro-E Creo2.0 and the output graph was obtained.

The constraint equations of the slider crank mechanism were solved using MATHCAD.

Analysis and Design of Robotic Systems: Jan ’14 – May ‘14

V+ codes are used to perform various operations on the ADEPT robot.

The V+ code was generated to perform a pick and place operation to pick 3 small wooden blocks from 3 pre-defined locations and place them, one at a time, at another 3 pre-defined locations using the ADEPT robot.

The total distance on the plane from 1st location to 2nd location was calculated and the program execution time for different speed of the robot was obtained.

Advanced Vibrations: Aug’14-Dec’14

The standard mono-suspension systems used with motor bikes was studied.

Design of a helical spring with standard specification used in mono suspension system of a motorbike was designed using Pro-ECreo2.0.

The model was imported to Pro-Mechanica, the load and constrains were calculated and applied and stress and displacement analysis of the helical spring was carried out.

The stress and displacement analysis result from Pro-Mechanica was obtained.

Obtained results were compared with theoretical results and it found that deflection of the spring decreases with increase in speed.

Engineering Quality Control: Aug’14-Dec’14

Analysis of different types of pedometers was done and threepedometers with different mechanisms were selected.

Raw output data from these pedometers was obtained and a standard device was selected.

Using the standard device the Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility study was done.

The Pedometer mechanism which gives the accurate result was found.

RESEARCH PROJECTS:

Design and construction of a liquid cooling device used in electronic Equipments Aug ’12 – May ‘13

Studying the heat generated by the microprocessors used in electronic devices.

Studying the properties of material that can be used for the construction of the liquid cooler.

Design of a liquid cooling setup that can be installed along with the microprocessors in electronic device using Pro-E.

Construction of the prototype using copper for maximum conductivity and leak proof seal.

The device was tested using an electronic coil as the heat source and its cooling efficiency was found to be 20 C.

Design and construction of linear variable differential transformer Jan ’12 – May ‘12

Design of the electrical transformer used for measuring linear displacements.

Appropriate material is selected and the LVDT is constructed to operate at 650 C and have low hysteresis and excellent repeatability.

Standard gauge blocks were used to measure the accuracy and it worked with an accuracy of 0.5mm.
