Life Plan- Cost based analysis for a period of 40years using forecasting methods.
Simulation Project to generate the best model for a real life PV generating energy plant- using WITNESS'14 software.
CASE STUDY AND PRESENTATION:
Presented on functioning and diversification of a production line for different companies (such as food joints, florist shops, newspaper printing agency and a furniture store). Means to determine their everyday inventory and its management was analyzed.
'Improved Multivariate Short-Run CUSUM Control Charts'- did a detailed case study and presented on Shewart and CUSUM control charts. Assessed the improvement in performance, showing the importance of enabling the multivariate short run chart for individual measurements by using statistics which are employed in short-run industrial manufacturing processes.
Demonstrated modeling skills and ability to apply quantitative optimization to the decision making process from Operational Research.
Internship and Job Experience
1. INTERNSHIP, TATA POWER, Bangalore, India (Jan-May, 2011)
