Experience     09/2013   to   05/2014     Company Name          Finite Element Analysis of Industrial Robotic Assembly, Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago          Jan - May 2016.  Conceptualized, brainstormed and designed a 6-axis SCARA Robot for pick and place operation in automotive industry.  Performed static analysis with stainless steel 304 to evaluate the maximum load an assembly can lift before yielding.  Also, analyzed Gripper and joints to eradicate future failures.  Optimized design using OptiStruct by varying mesh sizes and element order.  Simulated assembly with dynamic analysis to find distorted elements and to verify optimized structure.  Reliability Engineering Analysis on Automotive Oil Pump, Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago          Sept - Dec 2015.  Used industrial reliability specifications to select the power consumption and flow rate at three distinct levels of rpm to study its variability.  Improved system using Taguchi analysis by optimizing signal to noise ratio.  Conducted Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) to analyze potential causes of failures to deliver clean oil upon demand Abstracted and designed Near Dry Machine with two inlet nozzles.  Performed fluid analysis and actual results on lathe machine.  Provided vegetable oil as a coolant with pressurized air on flank face of the tool, which resulted in unburnt and recyclable chips.  Gearbox Design, Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai          Jan - May 2013.  Designed a gear box with different gears such as spur, helical worm by considering seals, lubricating oil and bearings.  Assigned materials and performed dynamic simulation to define contact surfaces.         06/2013   to   08/2013     Mechanical Engineering Intern    Company Name          Initiated a project to perform a failure investigation in mufflers due to the low clearance of roads and provided feedback.  Established and coordinated maintenance, GD&T, safety procedures, service schedule and supply of materials in the maintenance shop.  Developed failure reports including feedback based on common failures from the automotive industry.  Set up and calibrated accelerometers on Hyundai cars to conduct tests to analyze the modes of vibration of vehicle and 
the steering column.         05/2012   to   07/2012     Manufacturing Engineering Intern    Company Name          Analyzed automation, process parameters, different equipment to shape and control the profile of chips and Manufacturing process
