BE-Mechanical (2022-26) | Vice-Captain | Rollcage @ CEG Motorsports

Final year mechanical engineering student with a strong passion for automobile design and engineering. Throughout my studies, I always look for new challenges and opportunities to learn. I have good problem-solving abilities and eagerness to learn, and I'm excited about contributing my skills and enthusiasm to the field of automotive engineering.



My Works

Some of My Highlights

BAJA ATV ROLLCAGE

The roll cage is a critical safety component of the off-road vehicle, designed to protect the driver in the event of a rollover or impact. Using 3d CAD software We optimize the design for strength, stiffness, and weight. We consider factors such as material selection, tubing diameter and thickness. We work with metal fabrication tools, such as tube benders and welders, to fabricate and assemble the roll cage accurately. Static load testing and dynamic impact testing are done to evaluate the roll cage's performance under different scenarios to maximize safety.

Pneumatic Sheet Metal Bending Machine

Designed and fabricated a Sheet Metal Bending Machine which is capable of making 90 Degrees bend on up to 2mm Aluminum Sheet that is purely pneumatically powered.

Drill Bit Honing

Designed a Propeller-based agitator (Solidworks) and studied its performance during Shear,Thickening Process, to reduce the cutting-edge radius of a drill bit. Analyzed the chip morphologies at different honed conditions and speed settings.

Abrasive Jet Machining

Design and performed CFD analysis (ANSYS Fluent) of the Convergent-Divergent (CD) nozzle to determine optimal throat diameter.

Fixture Design and Fabrication for Laser Texturing on Drills

Design and fabrication of a fixture for Laser Texturing on Drill Bits. Studying the effect of dimple patterns on the efficiency of the drill bit and compare it to other kind of texture patterns

IPG – EV challenge (Hackathon organized by IPG & Bosch) s

Built an FMU in Simulink that calculates the optimal speed for energy-efficient travel considering traffic conditions in EVs. Integrated that FMU with IPG Carmaker and increased the Final SOC by 23%. Currently working on a FMU to book charging stations and AI Agents, to negotiate the charging slot among other EVs replicating real time scenarios.
