Preliminary design of an automobile BIW: CU-ICAR, Greenville, SC (January 2015 – May 2015). o As part of a team, collaborated the development of BIW structures for a vehicle design. Used available benchmarking data and SolidWorks to design and develop the structural members of BIW. o Optimized the side-frame mass and met the project requirements by estimating and improving bending and torsion stiffness of BIW.

o Improved the crash-worthiness of the vehicle by updating structural members of the front and rear compartments.

o Maintained passenger compartment integrity and reaction to crash impact loads by updating the design of the BIW cross-members.

o Mass of the control arm was reduced by 52% by performing topology optimization.

Bending And torsional test conducted on BMW X3 E83 BIW: CU-ICAR, Greenville, SC (January 2015

– May 2015).

o The H point test was done to study the bending characteristics. o The torsional test was done by applying equal and opposite deflection on the front end of the car while keeping the rear end fixed at the suspension points. o Generated Load vs Deflection and Torque vs angle of twist curves to determine the bending stiffness and torsional stiffness.

o Estimated curb weight and light weight index of the vehicle.

Multi-Objective Optimization of a Square Plate: Clemson, SC (August 2014- December 2014). o Achieved a multi-objective optimization using feasible solutions, including setting up the analysis in ANSYS and coupling it to ModeFRONTIER.

o Minimized the volume and stress of a square plate for a deflection that is less than the specified value.

Redesign of an actuator assembly process: Clemson, SC (August 2013- December 2013). o Effectively implemented Boothroyd and Dewhurst Methodologies for design for manufacturing and assembly (DFX) on this real-life project by Meritor, Inc. o Redesigned the fixture, the workstation, and improved upon the ergonomics of the overall process. Modelled the activity using Solid works.

o Successfully proposed the potential for complete automation, thereby reducing dependency on workers. o Increased productivity by 18% and reduced lead time by 25% via fixture redesign.

Mars mining rover: Clemson, SC (August 2014- December 2014). o Using SolidWorks, a preliminary design for a mars mining rover was created using design principles like black box, functional decomposition, and other design tools. o The rover was designed so that it could go to any celestial body and mine for precious resources. o The rover was designed based on specification given for NASA rover mining competition.

Design for manufacturing project: Clemson, SC (August 2014- December 2014). o Successfully applied Poli’s Methodology and Design for manufacturing guidelines, in the redesign of a BMW headlight casing.

o Reduced manufacturing costs by 47%.

o Decreased the part complexity by 49%, increasing overall cost savings.

Reverse Engineering – Clemson, SC (August 2013-December 2013) o Using FMEA principles, redesigned a crock pot to create manufacturing and design improvements using functional decomposition and connectivity graphs. o Increased efficiency by 36.6% and decreased the assembly time by 32%.
