experience
Tampere University Of Technology, Finland
Summer 2014
Completed 85 days of Research Internship in the field of Mechatronics and Automation under the guidance of Riku Heikkilä, Project Manager, Mechanical Engineering and Industrial System.
The project involved the development of the environmental control unit (air flow, temperature, clean room and humidity) and control logic for the TUT Microfactory concept. New modules were designed and manufactured, electrical and mechanical components were incorporated and controlled with the help of an Arduino micro controller.
Al Bahr Al Arabi Marine and Engineering Services
Winter 2013
Completed a month of industrial training under the guidance of Mr. Biji Chacko, Senior Mechanical Engineer. The internship involved in plant training on Vertical Storage Tanks with respect to design and manufacture of API-650-Welded Tanks for Oil Storage.
Bhabha Atomic Research Center Trombay
Summer 2013
Completed a month of Research internship under the guidance of Dr.K.Jayarajan, Outstanding Scientist, Department of Remote Handling and Robotics.
The topics included the following –
-
Analysis of Articulated Master Slave Manipulators - Analysing manipulator kinetics, generalizing manipulator arm motion in 2d space using MATLAB and formulating error involved in motion transmission from master to slave side.
-
Conceptualization of Mechanisms for Cleaning Glove Boxes – Mechanisms were proposed for the purpose of cleaning contaminated glove boxes. Various concepts were generated and their 3D CAD model were developed.
