PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE & INTERNSHIP
 Lifenet Health, Virginia Beach VA, Summer 2015
R& D Intern- Product Development Team
Used SolidWorks to compose 3-D models to assist design engineers in developing and modifying new and existing equipment. Performed model prototype testing and Finite Element Analysis (FEA), using the Solidworks simulation of existing product designs to demonstrate design effectiveness. Created technical drawings and Requested quotations for designed parts manufacture.
Key Accomplishments:
Reduced the cycle time of one of the tissue processing equipment by approximately 50% by modifying the existing design of the equipment
 Automotive Research Association of India, Pune, India 2013-2014
Research Trainee-Structural Dynamics Laboratory -
Conducted experimentation on test rig using strain gauges. Determined tensions at four different positions on a connecting rod subjected to four different loads. Compared test outcomes with Finite Element Analysis to evaluate errors. Learned to use FEA software and Ansys Workbench for linear analysis.
Key Accomplishments:
Scored 92% on the project.
Established a benchmark for allowable/expected error between Experimental and FEA results of strain measurement.
 Ideal Gas Springs, India 2012-2013
Intern
Internship helped develop aptitude in implementation of 5S methodology and single flow lean manufacturing.
ACADEMIC PROJECTS
 Substructuring in Abaqus University of Florida, Spring 2016
Worked on a project to study and practice substructuring in Abaqus to reduce the time required for analysis of complex geometries.
 Structural Design of an eleven beam truss University of Florida, Fall 2015
Performed the entire structural design cycle starting from topology optimization to sizing design optimization. This included shape optimization, weight optimization and sensitivity analysis of the 11 beam truss. A weight reduction of 67.23% was achieved.
 Finite Element Analysis and Design of A Plane Truss University of Florida, Spring 2015
A 6 bay and 8 bay truss was analyzed under given loads and boundary conditions to find displacements and stresses generated.
The design was optimized to a fully stressed design to minimize weight of the structure by 57.98%.
 Seminar on the failure and return of the NASA Apollo 13 space shuttle
Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology, University of Pune - 2012-2013
.
