Experience

Worked as CAD ENGINEER in SDS (Swamy Design Solutions) Pvt. Ltd, for 1 year

from July 2006 to June 2007. My role was to design Pro/E models of the industrial

components such as Push in Fit, In-line valves, Solar lantern housing body, End cap of

solar drum etc,. I was in a team of six people and I had a lot of responsibilities as I had to

design and draft number of components than other team members. Moreover, I had the

responsibility of checking the drawings of all the team members before submitting it to

my team lead and finalizing.

Projects I worked in

Project Name : Push in Fit.

Client : Lincoln Helios (India) LTD

Description : Push in fittings is used in automated lubrication or general

lubrication products. This system is used to connect compressor

and the nozzle pipe of the lubricating system and the

component looks like bend tube.

Tool Used : Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3

Role : Part Modeling and Drafting

Project Name : In-line Valves.

Client : Lincoln Helios (India) LTD

Description : In-line Valves are used in heavy duty pumps products. This

system is used to control the rate of flow of liquids and the

component is of circular shape.

Tool Used : Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3

Role : Part Modeling and Drafting

Project Name : Solar Lantern Housing body.

Client : TATA BP Solar

Description : This component is used as housing body for the component of

solar Lantern. This component is of circular shape and all the

components of solar lantern are assembled inside the body.

Tool Used : Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3

Role : Part Modeling and Drafting

Project Name : End Cap of Solar Drum

Client : TATA BP Solar

Description : This component is used to cover two ends of the water storage

device in solar water heating system. This component is of

circular shape and fitted at the both end of the drum.

Tool Used : Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3

Role : Part Modeling and Drafting

Six months internship program at Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd at Helicopter division

Bangalore, India from Jan 2006 – June 2006. The project was entitled as “Suggestion for

Improved Plant Layout of Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) Final Assembly Hangar.”

The project was based on the redesigning of the existing plant layout by using AutoCAD

software in order to increase the efficiency and the productivity of the layout.

Masters projects

Thermal Stress Analysis of COPPER POST WITHOUT RDL (Re-Distribution

Layer)It’s a silicon chip involving three materials namely Silicon, Solder material and Plastic

substrate. For this model we had to do the structural analysis which involved the deflections

due to the thermal stresses. We had to compare the numerical results with the analytical one.

This involved the following steps.

Building the FEA model using ANSYS

Assigning the material properties

Creating the mesh

Applying the loads, boundary conditions and finally solving

Stress Analysis of a JEDC Board

Here, in this project I had to determine the maximum stress the circuit board can

withstand when it is dropped. These boards are usually used in cell phones. Hence this

analysis becomes helpful as the cell phones are subjected to lot of manhandling. By

conducting this analysis we can know the life of the board and the maximum stress it can

withstand. This project also involved ANSYS and the procedures are pretty much same as the

above project except for detailed boundary conditions.

Analysis of Thermal Conductivity in a Silicon chip

In this project I had to determine the thermal conductivity of the silicon chip

mounted on a PCB. The silicon material starts deforming after certain temperature.

The main task was to determine the maximum temperature for the safe working of the

board. This project also involved ANSYS and the procedures are pretty much same as the

above project except for detailed boundary conditions.
