Summer Research Experience:
Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA – Research for Undergraduates (REU), 2008, “Computing for Power Energy”
Description: Progress and investments toward a greener world are systematically multifaceted towards improving existing infrastructures. Incorporating new findings to help current systems evolve and investigating new alternatives to use or reuse as energy resources. This REU site is proposed on such a premise of ongoing research and development project at Drexel University, in Philadelphia, on “Power and Energy The Old, the New and the Renewable.
Outcomes: Improving existing infrastructures, incorporating new findings to help current systems evolve investigating new alternatives to use or reuse as energy resources\
Poster Presentation: Implementing Fault Tolerant Systems on Graphical Processing Units (GPU).
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Richland, WA - Summer Undergraduate Laboratory Internship (SULI), June 13 – August 19, 2011 “Smart Inverter into GridLAB-D”
Mentor: Jason Fuller
Description: The Department of Energy (DOE) project completed in summer 2011 required me to build a smart inverter model into GridLAB-D that (1) does no harm (so requires protection and drop-out mechanisms), (2) converts the solar DC power into AC using 4 quadrant control real and reactive power combinations), and (3) uses the solar power and smart inverter to do voltage and reactive power correction to provide localized Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) benefits, or a reduction in energy consumption.
Outcomes: Benefits the utilities and the customers by reducing energy consumption.

Class Projects:
Electrical Vehicle I and II, Portland State University, 2010-11
Design and Simulation of an Electrical Bicycle and Drive
Description: Worked as part of a 3-member team to create a Simulink simulator for a bike system
Outcomes: For this project we demonstrated the functionality of our controller by applying a constant speed reference of 200rad/s starting at t=0and then increasing the speed reference to 400rad/s by applying a step function at t=1. The speed controller, current controller and dc motor model respond to the increased reference speed input by increasing the current reference and therefore also the applied voltage to speed up the motor.. The applied voltage, current and speed waveforms for our dc motor model control were successfully and respectively graphed in Simulink.

DC Motors
Description: Demonstrated the functionality of controller by applying a constant speed reference of 200 rad/s starting at t+0 and then increasing the speed reference to 400 rad/s by applying a step function at t=1
Outcomes: a) Learned the process of controlling a DC motor using a form of open-loop voltage control implemented using a proportional integral controller; b) Became familiar with DC motors, their properties, and their response to an applied input as well as how they can be controlled using an open loop control system utilizing feedback;
c) Successfully implemented a model of a DC motor and built a PI controller in Simulink; d) Constructed and tested a dSPACE Control Desk Interface based on PI controller to drive a motor in real time.
