PROFESSIONAL PROJECTS

Development of Control System for an Electronic Fuel Injector

Simulated a control system for an electronic fuel injector using Simulink and Moto Hawk blocks

Evaluated the simulation parameters using piston position and crank shaft RPM

Calibrated the model using Moto Tune and tested the fuel injector by simulating different engine speeds

Distributed Control System for Electronic Throttle and CAN communication

Developed a feedback PI electronic controller using Simulink and Moto Hawk blocks

Controlled two ECU’s remotely using CAN communication (J1939)

Synthesized the analog signals from remotely controlled ECU and calibrated the control system using Moto Tune calibration tool

Validated and tested the controller by varying the pedal position and eliminated any instabilities encountered

Development of Minimum and Maximum Governor Control Models for Gasoline Engine

Powertrain controls and calibration on 2.4L gasoline engine using tools such as Simulink and Mototune (ETAS INCA equivalent)

Designed a Simulink model to control the engine RPM and controlled the engine in a test cell by communication with CAN message

Designed engine state machine in Simulink for stall, crank and run states and PI controllers to maintain the gasoline engine at minimum and maximum speed

Development of Gasoline Engine Speed Control System

Assembled a model-based design using Simulink, Moto Tune and Moto Hawk of an engine controller and Engine Position Tracking (EPT)

Designed the engine controller model for controlling the engine speeds in minimum and maximum governor

Calibrated and tuned the engine using MotoTune to avoid any instabilities while entering the minimum and maximum governor when the engine RPM increases

Inspected the final engine control model on GM Ecotec 2.4L gasoline engine at different load conditions

WORK EXPERIENCE

Auto Nation, Hyderabad, India

Service Engineer May 2015 - November 2015

Worked as a service manager in an automotive Group representing all my mechanics and helping them in solving technical issues to meet customer’s satisfaction

Confirmed the resolution of issues by test driving the repaired vehicles

Developed worker’s schedule and maintained the inventory list to improve the work efficiency

Pittsburg State University, Pittsburg, KS January 2018 - May 2018 Electrical and Electronics Lab Student Assistant

Guided students during their experiments in the electronics lab

Diagnosed the electric and electronic issues in the vehicles

Filed the Diagnosis reports

BHEL Turbines and Pumps Plant, Hyderabad, India May 2014 - July 2014 Mechanical Engineer Trainee and Quality control

Verified product design

Implemented different techniques while examining a product.

Evaluated quality of the welds using Non-Destructive Testing’s (NDTs) like Penetration test and sonar test.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Improving the performances of Gasoline Engine. January 2018 – May 2018

Analyzed performances of gasoline engine like sensors and mechanical parts of engine by using OBD applications.

Diagnosed the Powertrain and emission control for gasoline engine

Documented the diagnosis reports

Analysis and Mechanical trouble shooting of Toyota Engine. January 2017 - May 2017

Assembled and disassembled of Toyota Engine based on design

Instrumented Toyota engine by using Vernier caliper and screw gauge

Fixed the timing belt and ignition coils of Toyota engine

Quality inspection of the Baby Milk packets Powder (Quality Management and Control) January 2017- May2017

Conducted the quality inspection on the baby milk powder

Tabulated the data of each baby milk packets for 7 different specimens we had created the X-R Chart, Histogram and Process Capability Report with the help of MINI TAB

Charted the frequency of occurrence for the defective of packets. The major cause of these faulty dimensions may be filling errors, and human errors

Observed that these tools play a major role in every organization for continuous improvement
