  • Experience

    • Purdue University

      Jan 2013 - Jun 2013

      1. Programmed a bipedal walking and running model for trajectory optimization and spring parameter tuning.2. Showed that loads upto 40% of the body weights can be easily carried if the spring is tuned to reduced load. Graded and provided assistance with homework and coursework to undergrads for the course on Machine Design.
