Sri Venkateswara University of Engineering, India

May 2009

Bachelor of Technology in Civil Engineering

GPA: 3.7

*RESEARCH AND DESIGN PROJECTS*

* Design of Offshore

Structures

*Spring 2013

Developed and worked on the excel sheets for the calculation of wind force,

steel pipe allowable stress calculations, wave force calculations and pile

ultimate strength calculations as per API (RP 2A, 2INT-MET, 2MET).

Developed a Caisson design for different water depths both for boat access

and helipad access.

*Term Project on Advance

Concrete

*Spring 2013

Designed one way and two way slabs with a slab thickness to be determined

based on deflection control and calculated the required factored moments

and shears according to direct design method and calculated reinforcement

according to ACI code

* Report on Discrete Crack Modeling using Abaqus

*Fall 2013

A report on the numerical technique method called Discrete Crack

Modeling. When a discrete crack is inserted in the model and the topology

of the structure changes can be studied and observed by using Abaqus

software. Application of this model depicts realistic load displacements

and stress intensity along crack pattern.

* Report on Numeric Analysis of Finite Elements for a Cantilever

beam *Spring 2014

To study the static analysis of a beam, Finite Element software ABAQUS has

been used. Simulation results are studied carefully and salient conclusions

have been drawn. The outputs of for both the quadrilateral and triangular

elements are used to compare with the analytical results obtained from the

analytical calculations.

* Design of Foundations of Multistoried Building for Equal

Settlement *Spring 2009

Conducted experiments required to analyze the behavior of soil and designed

foundations based on the maximum bearing strength and the amount of

foundation load subjected for particular region to lead to equal

settlements.

* PAPER PRESENTATIONS*

*Natural Hazards and Disaster Management: *Causes, effects and mitigation

strategies on the Natural Hazard and Disaster Management at International

Conference, Hyderabad.

* Grouting Techniques: *One of the ground improvement techniques used

widely to reduce the liquefaction hazards and effects of pore water

pressure during earthquakes.
