RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ Aug 2010 - Dec 2014 Graduate Research Associate
• Developed mechanochemically active polymer particle worked as damage sensor in polymer matrix composite (fiber glass reinforced) including synthesis and characterization of material
• Applied MATLAB to design a mathematical model to select a laminate (types of materials, number of plies and orientation) to support different in-plane loads which must satisfy Tsai-Hill failure criterion.
• Used ODE solver in MATLAB to dynamic irreversible solid-gas reaction modeling of the chemical heat pump cooling system with a mathematical model set up and numerical calculations.
• Developed a robust categorical model via 6 sigma methodology for a “deadly statapult” to keep the intruders away.
