Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, SUNY at Binghamton, NY July 2016

Participated in a seminar on Computational Fluid Dynamics and Fluid Power, Fr. CRCE, Mumbai. March 2012

Participated in a seminar on Tool Engineering, Fr. CRCE, Mumbai. August 2013

Level 1 Robotics Workshop, Fr CRCE, Mumbai. September 2010 PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Internship at M/s Larsen and Toubro Ltd. (Heavy Engineering Division), Mumbai, India October 2013 - April 2014

Worked as an intern on the Undergraduate Final Year Project that was undertaken in the Welding Department

Project: Development and Qualification of the Orbital TIG Welding Process for Nuclear Application

The objective of the project was to transition from manual welding to a semi-automated welding process. The Semi-Automated Orbital TIG Welding technique was developed for tube to tube welding of stainless steel pipes in the dish end of a pressurizer

Overlooked the welding technique and created 124 mock-ups using varying parameters that affected weld quality. Parameters were changed based on studies and literature review

Each mock-up was then tested and analyzed for defects. The plausible causes for defects were investigated and a corrective action plan was then formulated

SIGNIFICANT ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Evaluating the Impact of the PDCA cycle to reduce OR turnover time: A Research Proposal from an Industrial and Systems Engineering Perspective January 2016 – May 2016

State University of New York at Binghamton, New York o Put forth a proposal for implementation of the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle to reduce Operating Room turnover time o Proposed the implementation of lean tools to improve efficiency and reduce waste

A Simulation Study of a Queueing System January 2016 – May 2016 State University of New York at Binghamton, New York o Built and implemented a simulation model of a queueing system for a local coffeehouse chain o The model was built using Visual Basic Application (embedded in Microsoft Excel) o The model helped analyze the server/staff utilization and suggested improvements to ensure optimal consumption of resources

Design of an Asthma Health Education Mobile Application Prototype for Children January 2016 – May 2016 State University of New York at Binghamton, New York o Applied Human Factors Engineering principles in the design of a prototype health education application for children suffering from asthma

o The potential application would help children aged 8-12 years and their parents get acquainted with the effects of asthma and provide measures to help control the disease

o Created a sample design interface to project the appearance of the proposed user friendly mobile application

Design and Implementation of a Decision Support System for a Walk-In Clinic September 2015 - December 2015 State University of New York at Binghamton, New York o Built and implemented a Decision Support System (DSS) for optimum staff scheduling in a walk-in clinic using Visual Basic Application (embedded in Microsoft Excel)

o The M/M/1 queuing model was the basis of the mathematical model used o The DSS was capable of making predictions of patient arrivals by taking into account historical arrival data. On the basis of these predictions, it was able to generate a weekly staff schedule

Testing the Effect of Noise on Human Performance and Concentration September 2015 - December 2015 State University of New York at Binghamton, New York o Used varying levels of noise intensities on human subjects to test its effect on the human ability to focus o Multiple tasks were assigned to subjects in the presence of a 3D noise and performance was measured by analyzing time taken and number of errors made

o Results were analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) o Outcomes showed that noise causes a significant decline in human performance

Development and Qualification of the Orbital TIG Welding Process for Nuclear Application October 2013 - April 2014 M/s Larsen and Toubro Ltd., Mumbai, India

o Developed and qualified the Orbital TIG Welding Process that was to be used for a Nuclear Project o Technique developed was used for the tube-tube welding of stainless steel pipes in a pressurizer o Development was done by welding approximately 124 mock up pipes by varying necessary parameters o Welded mock ups were tested and analyzed for defects. Remedies and recommendations were suggested so as to achieve defect-free welds
