      Jul 2019 - Jul 2019
      Summer Intern

      I got an opportunity to do an internship for one month in Combat Vehicle Research and Development Establishment (CVRDE) at Chennai. It is a laboratory of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). DRDO is the premier organisation of the Government of India charged with military research and development. I worked on “Thermodynamic Simulation and Engine Uprating and Study of its Effect on Critical Parameters of Engine”. It was from that work environment, I learnt Engine Uprating which can be defined as the adjustment or modification of the internal combustion of an engine or Engine control unit (ECU) to yield optimal performance and increase the engine power output and economy. AVL BOOST simulation software is used for comparing thermodynamic study of a naturally aspirated and turbocharged engine. Show less

      Dec 2019 - Jan 2020
      Project Student

      The dissertation that I submitted as part of the academic curriculum, was on 'Fatigue Life Estimation of Structures Under Vibration Loading'. The project was done in Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) at Sriharikota, operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Here we comprehended a test method to estimate the fatigue life of material based on a variation of its natural frequencies. Aluminium and mild steel beams are the materials we used in our experiment. We inspected the variation of natural frequencies of Mild steel and Aluminium beams under Vibration Loading. Results showed that beyond 80 per cent of the design life, the natural frequencies of both the beam specimens started decreasing. Show less
