CAREER OBJECTIVE

• Seeking Mechanical Engineering position focused on Design and Manufacturing.

• Willing to relocate with or without assistance.

EDUCATION

University of Massachusetts Lowell, MA, USA GPA – 3.74/4.0 Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering May. 2018 Anna University, Chennai, India GPA- 8.36/10.0

Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering Apr. 2016 PROJECT EXPERIENCE

Design for Manufacturing (DFM) of a Headlight using Hitachi Assembly Analysis Jan. 2018 – May. 2018

• The Hitachi assembly analysis was performed on original and modified design to determine the design efficiency and actual assembly time.

• The improved design had increased design efficiency, decreased assembly time and less number of parts. Skills used: Hitachi Assembly Analysis, Solidworks and MS Word Design of a Piezoresistive Microcantilever Beam Biosensor for Bio-sensing Application Sep. 2017 – Dec. 2017

• A microcantilever beam was designed in Solidwoks and analysed using Ansys Workbench for various weighing particles.

• The maximum beam deflection and stress caused by different bio molecule were determined. Skills used: Ansys Workbench, Solidworks and MS Word Analysis of biological cardiac stent in Minitab Jun. 2017 – Aug. 2017

• Stent’s barb length, depth, orientation and overlap were studied against tensile, compression and barb retention.

• The three responses had no significant curvature and lack of fit was not significant which implies model is good.

• Tensile strength and Barb retention had good predictive model value than the Compression. Skills used: Minitab, DOE, Solidworks and MS Word. Reliability of a Motion Senor Light Jan. 2017 – May. 2017

• The Reliability of the motion sensor light without any design change was 0.5835 or 58.35 %

• FMECA is conducted to determine the high critical component.

• The high criticality component was modified, and the reliability of the new system was increased to 80.53%. Skills used: FMECA, MS Word and Product Reliability using MTBF value Energy Transport in a Circular Pipe used in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) Jan. 2017 – May. 2017

• A model was formulated for CSP in Matlab to calculate the raise in temperature of a heat transfer fluid.

• Two approaches were conducted, Approach 1 (Varying the Length) and Approach 2 (Loop System)

• Comparing both the approaches, Approach 1 was reliable because of its high final temperature of heat transfer fluid. Skills used: MATLAB, Solidworks, MS Word and MS PowerPoint. WORK EXPERIENCE

Tube Products of India Private Ltd., Chennai, India Summer Intern. Jun. 2015 – Nov. 2015

• Worked on the manufacturing of cold drawn welded precision tube.

• Assisted a Senior Engineer in continuous process parameter monitoring.

• Responsible for documenting the heat treatment values and observing the results for future use.

• Used control charts to study whether the slitting process is in stable condition.

• Gained knowledge on production of seamless steel tubes used in automobiles.

• Attended sessions on work ethics and safety precautions to be followed on the shop floor. TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE
