Academic Projects
Modelling an American Chopper using SolidWorks (2020)
The prime components such as Engine, Chassis, Gas Tank, Oil Tank, Front Fork, etc along with all the accessory components were designed using SolidWorks.
These individual part files were then assembled with the help of appropriate mates.
Rendering operations were performed using PhotoView 360.
Side crash test of DODGE Neon model with a rigid pole using HyperMesh, Radioss (2020)
The crash test is carried out for the impact of a trimmed model of the car with a rigid pole of infinite longitudinal dimension.
Defined appropriate Property & Material cards, Contact Interfaces, Time-step control cards, etc. and necessary output requests are created to study the simulation. The boundary conditions were assigned considering the FMVSS 214 standards.
TH plots of Sectional forces, Intrusions at different parts of the BIW and also the energy plots such as Internal, Kinetic, Contact, Hourglass energies are analyzed to visualize the severity of the impact and the performance of the model.
Full Overlap frontal crash test of DODGE Neon model using HyperMesh, Radioss (2020)
The crash test is carried out for the impact of a trimmed model of the car with a Rigid wall of infinite dimensions.
Defined appropriate Property & Material cards, Contact Interfaces, Time-step control cards, etc. and necessary output requests are created to study the simulation. The boundary conditions were assigned considering the FMVSS 208 standards.
TH plots of Sectional forces, Intrusions at different parts of the BIW and also the energy plots such as Internal, Kinetic, Contact, Hourglass energies are analyzed to visualize the severity of the impact and the performance of the model.
Design of an Electric Vehicle powertrain using MATLAB-Simulink (2020)
●Prepared a Simulink model of a Battery Electric Vehicle (4 wheels; front-wheel driven).
●The motor used for the simulation is a simple DC permanent-magnet motor which is controlled with an H-bridge circuit.
●It was then used to determine the system performance during the simulation run.
FE modelling of different car components using ANSA and HyperMesh (2020)
●Performed pre-processing on different car components such as Rear Suspension system, IP substrate, Engine Intake manifold, cross car beam, etc.
●Performed geometric cleanup and modelled in a way – parts less than 5mm thickness were modelled with shell meshing and the rest with volumetric meshing
●The Engine Intake Manifold and the Rear-view mirror were fully modelled with volumetric mesh.
●Appropriate connections were established to prepare the components for NVH simulation.
Wide-Open-Throttle condition for GM EV1 car (2020)
●A MATLAB program was executed to study the WOT response of the EV1 which was developed by General Motors.
●The results were analyzed and compared with the actual vehicle specifications.
Analysis of Friction Stir welds on polymers and Strength optimization based on the process parameters (2018-19)
●Designed and fabricated the FSW tool and performed the experiments on thin 3mm HDPE sheets with different speed-feed rate permutations.
●Modified the design and performed the experiments with preheating of the sheets.
●Analyzed the results to get the optimal process parameters to get the best weld strength.
Modelling a Washing Machine using Simulink Stateflow (2020)
●A stateflow model for a simple washing machine was developed which uses delay operations to perform different sub processes.
Stress Analysis of Spanner and Gear using ANSYS (2018)
●As a FEA subject mini project, performed stress analysis on simple models of spanner and spur gear.
●The focus was on analyzing the stress, strain conditions in the elements caused by bending due to normal loading situation.
