Experience

• UIC Motorsports SAE-Student member(Design Engineer): Jan 2015-present

• Developed equation driven CAD models of the rear sprockets using SolidWorks for the formula(F15) race car.

• Created CAD models and built/fabricated parts of bell crank mounts for the assembly of the suspension rod and chassis.

• Hands on experience with the assembly of the race car, cut off wheels, air tools, milling machines, drilling machines, lathe

machines and other workshop equipment.

Project works

• Design of 3D CAD model of a Multi-tool(Swiss Knife)-April 2015

• Individually designed and modelled 3D CAD models of all the parts and the assembly of the Multi-tool using SolidWorks.

• Created detailed drawings of each part and assembly and created BOMs of the Multi-tool.

• Performed FEA Analysis on the pliers when a certain pressure is applied to calculate the stress, strain and displacement field.

• ANALOG PID controls using Op-Amps-fall 2014:

• This project was to implement the theory of summing, inverting, differential, derivative and integrator Op Amps by building

complete ANALOG PID control circuit.

• Coordinated with team members and handled the circuit connections, experiment procedure and the documentation.

• Testing was done of the input output relationship of the PID circuit(i.e. P only, D only, I only, PID versions of the circuit).

Successful calculation of the Op-Amp gains were achieved for the different versions of the circuit.

• Structural Analysis of a Hammer-fall 2013:

• Individually worked and modelled a 3-dimenational model of a ball-peen hammer using ANSYS 11.0 and calculated the

maximum displacements and verified it by manual calculations using Finite Element Theory.

• Successfully accomplished the comparison of the durability of 2 hammers of different material properties.

• Design and fabrication of MAGLEV train model-June 2012:

• Designed and fabricated a model of the Magnetic Levitation train(MAGLEV) using neodymium disc magnets, bar

magnets, plywood, copper windings and DC motor. Worked on this project in a group of total 3 partners.

• Led the project in concept, design, placing orders, purchasing of parts, assembly, and demonstration/presentation.

• Levitation and propulsion of the train was achieved to demonstrate the working of the MAGLEV trains.

Industrial Experience

• VIMFAB-Solar power generation(Intern)-July 2012:

• Exposure to the manufacturing of solar panel mounting structures, installation devices and foundation screws.

• Project work on the manufacturing process of solar panels from raw silica.

• Coordinated with engineers to gain experience of the manufacturing processes of the mounting structures.

• APSRTC Bus workshop-Jan 2011:

• Hands on work with the assembly of the parts of the internal combustion engine and transmission systems.

• Research about working and function of the parts, various defects and causes of the parts of the engines.

Coursework

• Structural Mechanics/Design: Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Advanced FEA, CAD and Applied Stress Analysis.

• Control Engineering: Dynamic Systems Analysis, Automatic Control of Mechanical Systems and Mechatronics.

• Multi body Dynamics: Dynamics of Mechanical Systems and Computer Aided Design of Multi body systems.

Co-curricular

• UIC-COE Toastmasters International-Vice President(Education): Leading the meetings by preparing the agenda,

organizing and promoting the events, making presentations and evaluating the speakers.
