ENGINEERING PROJECTS

Crashworthiness and Occupant Safety, Wayne State University Fall 2016

Gained knowledge on FMVSS, IIHS, NCAP and NHTSA guidelines.

Performed Frontal crash as per FMVSS. 208 and IIHS, Roof crush as per FMVSS. 216, Head on oblique 30 as per IIHS and Side impact as per FMVSS. 214 with Fuel System Integrity.

Used coarse meshed 50th percentile H-III dummy, standard airbag and seatbelt in the analysis. Have also included fine meshed 50th percentile H-III dummy in the roof crush analysis.

Compared HIC-15 and CSI values of the dummy with and without seatbelt condition.

Introduced crash initiators on the front lower rails of the truck in order to increase the deformation, so that all the elements are used efficiently in the crash and reduce the injury to the occupant.

Other ways of improvements include, adding beams around the chassis as a roll cage, which helped in reducing the intrusion of the interior and changing the material thickness of certain parts which are weak and thin.

Assigned composite card MAT58 for the door, chassis and roof parts in side crash. Also experimented on various orientations and thickness of composite plies in a frontal lower rail crash. Dynamic analysis of a brake disc, Wayne State University Winter 2016

Used Ansys to find the heat flux distribution and thermal convection distribution based on the thermal conductivity and heat flux of the brake disc material.

Designed the brake disc and pads on Abaqus and did temperature coupled dynamic displacement analysis to find the contact pressure and stress of both disc and the pads. Rectangular filleted bar in tension, Wayne State University Fall 2015

Used Abaqus to design the component and did analysis to find J-integral and Stress intensity factor.

Compared the values by solving the problem analytically. Stress optimization of a steel bracket, Wayne State University Fall 2015

Used Hypermesh to mesh the given bracket and did stress analysis.

Did stress optimization by adding ribs at the weaker section of the bracket and reduced the stress by 10%. Lathe Tool Design, SRM University Winter 2014

Designed using Catia V5 a tool shank to hold two different inserts one next to another over their non-cutting edge.

Used a D-55 and a V-35 diamond inserts.

Tested the tool on a CNC machining Aluminum, Nylon and Steel. Work Experience
