Education:
|
|
|
1999 2001
|
Bachelor of
Technology in Mechanical Engineering, J.N.T. University, Hyderabad,
India
Master of Science
in Mechanical Engineering, Ohio University, Athens, Ohio with a GPA
of 3.7

Professional Experience:
|
Project Trainee at
the Electronic Corporation of India Limited
Jan 1999 to June 1999
Worked for the Control Systems group, which was involved in
designing and manufacturing of Process Control Systems. Job
responsibilities include:
-
Drafting the production
drawings of control system’s design.
-
Performing static
analysis to test the reliability of the proposed design using the NISA
analysis software.
Graduate Research Assistant at the Ohio University
Jan 2000 till date
Working on the research project “Role
and the fate of Sulfur in the gas reburning for NOx Control” funded
by the Ohio Coal Development Office (OCDC), Department of Energy (NETL)
and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Gas reburing of the
exhaust from the coal combustion reduces the formation of NOx in the
flue gases. But, reburning enhances the formation of SO3,
which corrodes any metal on contact. The current research
experimentally studies the path and the phase through which sulfur (in
the coal) passes before forming SO3. Job responsibilities
include:
-
Designing and building
of the experimental setup.
-
Simulation of the flue
gases partially by combusting coal powder, and remaining by injecting
various gases such as SO2, CO2 etc., on the
exhaust side.
-
Experiments are carried out
by varying the concentration of gases injected so as to study the
effect on coals of different composition.

Visual Basic 6.0 FEA Project:
|
|
“Simple
One dimensional static analysis of a Cantilever beam with
uniformly increasing cross-sectional area” at the Ohio University,
Athens, Ohio
This project involved coding in
Visual Basic 6.0 to perform static analysis on a cantilever beam with
uniformly increasing cross-sectional area under the action of different
point-loads, body loads and thermal loads. This program implemented the
one-dimensional Galerkin approach to solve the finite element problem
|
Senior Design Project
|
|
“Structural
Analysis of Nuclear Power Plant Control Panel – Electronic Cabinet ”
at the Control Systems Group, Electronic Corporation of India Limited
(ECIL), Hyderabad, India.
This project involved drafting and structural analysis of an
electronic cabinet, which holds electronic circuits to monitor a
nuclear reactor. The design of the cabinet was drafted using AutoCAD
R14 and then imported to NISA (Numerically Integrated Elements for
Structural Analysis).
