Terex Corporation Bangalore, India

Performance Engineer Intern Jun 2015 – Aug 2015

Performed R&D on Applied thermodynamic properties, tested radiators and their characteristics in normal and under critical operational limits

Collected data and analyzed cooling systems of the FUCHS MHL360E machine’s engine

Examined heat and energy release and the efficiency on various MHL radiators to match the coolants

Used SolidWorks to create a basic prototype to formulate the working of a coolant

Acquired in depth understanding, hands-on experience and skills on the design principles for modeling a prototype and its conversion to mass scale manufacturing

Optimized the coolant movement with an increase of 2% efficiency but faced budget issues. Broadened my understanding on thermodynamics and their applications in heavy machines industry Dhofar Automotive Muscat, Oman

Service Engineer Intern Jun 2013 – Aug 2013

Planned and utilized various CAD software to help build an eV Cart prototype

Designed the suspension components for the eV cart on SolidWorks

Performed engineering drawing for the suspensions layout. Oversight of the operational process

Designed and constructed a dual motor split axle cart to enhance suspensions on each side vehicle

Integrated control designs and steering mechanism systems using SolidWorks

Expanded my knowledge on the modern uses of 3-D printing with the help of MakerBot Research Experience

Temple University - Biomechanics Laboratory Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Student Assistant Oct 2016 – March 2017

Constructed a 3-D printed robotic arm to help educate a Bionic Humans class on the topics of robotics and biomechanical systems

Utilized SolidWorks and optimized the overall model with MakerBot software

3-D printed the outer model of the robotic arm with PLA filament and implemented an Arduino Nano as the microcontroller

Implemented the MyoWare muscle sensor which was activated with Electromyography to move the arm

Coded the movement of the fingers in a set of C and C++ functions via the Arduino software Temple University – Materials Genomics and Quantum Devices Laboratories Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Research Assistant June 2017 - Current

Studying nano-scale volume changes in certain alloys when exposed to magnetic fields using non – Joulian magnets

Measured magnetostriction by attaching strain gauges in a temperature compensating Wheatstone bridge setup using the LabView program

Data analyzed with the help of OriginPro with final results showing changes in volume graphs

Provided results give the critical compositional degree-of-freedom necessary for designing new alloys

Fabricating a method to accurately read the nanoscale changes in the magnetized alloys structures Projects

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign - HackIllinois Urbana-Champaign, Illinois Project LiT Feb 2016

Developed a simple device to shine light on driving under the influence (DUI), and also to create awareness

Prototype involved a breathalyzer with an OLED display which informs the user of alcohol contents in their blood. A strip of RGB LED light alerts others to the level of inebriation of the user

Was involved in its circuit design, connectivity of the component, designing codes/programming of the microcontroller.

Wrote various codes to interconnect and simulate the breathalyzer to take verity of inputs and provide verity of outputs on precise amount of alcohol as celebrated as on the LED strip and the display on the OLED

Assembled all components, their connections, complete wiring onto a glove to make it compact and easy to work with.

Awarded top 5 in the innovative hardware section of the event https://devpost.com/software/breathalyzer

Purdue University – Senior Design West Lafayette, Indiana Martian Solar Panel Cleaning Technology Jan 2016 – May 2016

Created a device that clears dust on the Martian rover solar panels in a timely manner without the use of electricity to enhance and improve their Martian working life.

Handled the modelling and assembly of the 3-D printed device holders

Chose shape memory alloys to be the main component of the device as they can be expanded and contracted with the help of temperature. Tested the alloy by passing a high voltage current

System actuated with the help of shape memory alloys on either side of the panel, in turn connected to a brush which moves along the panel

Made the device light in terms of weight, durable, low cost and the team found 80% success in clearing the dust Organizations

American Society of Mechanical Engineers Sep 2016 – Dec 2016

South Asian Student Association Sep 2016 – Dec 2016

Purdue 3D printing club Sep 2014 – Dec 2014

Purdue eV Grand Prix Sep 2014 – Dec 2014
