PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Research Aide - Arizona State University, USA. (Jan 2015 – July 2015)

Conducted testing, modeling and simulation using MATLAB, Arbin System and PARSTAT Impedance tools to understand the SoC and SoH of batteries (Li-Ion, SLA, NMH) under various charge/ discharge rates, temperatures along with experimental results.

Obtained HFR values for the battery systems & developed “LOOK-UP CHART” for larger batteries typically employed at SRP sites.

Verified and Validated the Bat-Z Impedance Tester for large batteries typically employed at SRP sites.

Winter & Summer Intern - TransPower, San Diego, USA. (Dec 2014 – Jan 2015) & (June 2014 – Aug 2014)

Created MATLAB scripts to allow users to perform in-depth standard and automated analysis of Alternative Fuel Vehicle Fleet Data (Class 8 Electric Trucks) with an emphasis on performance and energy usage.

Scripts were capable of reading multiple .CSV files from any folder depending on the user (GUI Interface), decimate error frames and gaps, distinguish between charging and moving events and continuously store the output results in word and Excel file with their respective date stamps.

Intern - Mukand Ltd., India. (Dec 2011 – Jan 2012)

Reduced training time of new employees by consolidating the processes to achieve maximum production of Steel Coils and Bars.

Analyzed various processes like Annealing, Blooming, Cold Drawing, Continuous Caster, Pickling, Quenching, Shot Blasting, Ultrasonic and Magnaflux Testing.

Drafted/ Finalized and updated contracts of vendors.

Intern - N.R.B. Bearings Ltd., India. (Dec 2010 – Jan 2011)

Increased the productivity of Double- Disc grinding machine by 80%, with the help of new Disc Design (Designed in AutoCAD) and different grade of grinding wheel.

Operated Bach, CNC, Thrufeed, Wickman and Lapping machines under the supervision of floor supervisors.

Assisted in the optimization of floor plan using AutoCAD to accommodate new machines.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Wind Farm Development – Financial Engineering and Optimization. (Fall 2014)

Financial aspects like State/Federal policies and Grant programs were examined for Arizona, California and Texas.

Technical aspects like Turbine and blade selection, selection of land, risks, and optimization calculations were carried out successfully to obtain minimum cost of electricity (3.7 cents/KWh) with maximum revenue generation.

Design and Fabrication of Land Surfer. (Fall 2012 – Spring 2013)

Designed and fabricated a two-wheeled vehicle called the Land Surfer, with wheels mounted in an in-line fashion and worked on half crank pedal mechanism.

Designing was done on SOLIDWORKS and a working Prototype was made from stainless steel in Machine Shop.
