ACADEMIC PROJECT:

Undergraduate:

Concept and Design of Gauging System of Length of Glow Plugs at Robert

Bosch India Ltd.

Project details: The project work was undertaken with the objective of

decreasing the time and the number of gauges used to gauge the length of

glow plugs. The existing concept was using 24 different gauges. We were

required to establish a single gauging system to gauge the length of 24

different specifications of glow plugs. This was achieved by using IR

sensors and micro processors

Result: The time taken by the operator in the existing design per glow plug

was 30 seconds, and with the new design it was reduced to 6 seconds. The

saving in the cost of gauging system with this design is to the tune of INR

100,000.

Graduate:

Vehicle Ergonomics: Driver Package Evaluation, Controls and Displays

Evaluation, Field of View and Lighting Studies, Entry/Exit and Engine/Trunk

Compartment Evaluations, Analysis and comparison of learning curve in cars.

IC Engines-1: Design of a Coolant heat recovery system for an Automobile IC

engine by making use of TEG (Thermo Electric Generator). TEG's generate

power by making using of temperature difference.

Automotive Integrated Systems (current semester course): Bench Marking and

Product design specification, QFD, Vehicle attributes and cascading

requirements, Business Plan Development.

IC Engines-2 (current semester course): Diesel Engine simulation

PROFESSIONAL TRAINING:

. Attended BCAT (Basic course in automobile technology) on Volvo Eicher

Commercial Vehicles conducted by NIE-Volvo-Eicher, centre for

automobile technology, Mysore. It included the complete disassembling

and assembling of a Volvo Eicher truck engine.

. Trained in Basics and Fundamentals of welding Fixture Design

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:

. Event coordinator for the techno cultural fest at BIT in 2009 and 2010

. Certified with basic German language (Level A1) from Max Muller Bhavan

in April 2013.

. Presented a seminar on Automobile safety devices: ESP (Electronic

stability program) & ABS.
