College          : PEC University of Technology, Chandigarh (AIEEE 2641)

GPA                : 9.78 (Honors).

Class Rank    : 1st with Honors, 3rd otherwise. Topper’s CG 9.84
Stream          : B.E Mechanical Engineering (2012 Batch)
GRE                : 331 (Q 167 V 164 AWA 4.0
TOEFL            : yet to appear
Other Score  : AIR 2nd in Gate 2012. AIR 37th in IES 2012.

 

 

Honors Coursework :

 

1)   Honors courses in Design of Mechanical Systems, Advanced Strength of Materials, Mechanical Vibrations, Machine Design & Drawing, Theory of Machines & Manufacturing Processes.

Such an Honour is awarded for finishing the course in the top 2% of the class, with a rigorous and specifically structured workload along with a capstone project.

 

Work Experiences : 3.5 to 4 years

 

1)   Currently as Assistant Director in Thermal Renovation & Modernisation Division in CENTRAL POWER ENGINEERING SERVICES, NEW DELHI.

Submitted or Accepted Publications : not yet

 

Projects :

 

1)   Conceptualised, Designed & Fabricated an electrically powered Multipurpose Cleansing Device. Employed concepts from Solid & Fluid Mechanics to design the brush mechanism, an air-spray system and a water jet system. Awarded Silver Medal for the Best Major Project in Mechanical Engineering. Won 3rd place in Open House Competition.

2)   Stress Analysis of Tongue & Groove Joints in Solid Propellant Motor segments in PSLV & GSLV launch vehicles at ISRO. Developed a Stress Estimation Method employing analytical relations to evaluate stresses arising due to ovality; compared & contrasted the results with those from ANSYS.

3)   Designed & Fabricated an “Energy Regenerative System” that recovered the kinetic energy lost by vehicles while moving over speed breakers into useful electrical energy. Employed a kinematic mechanism along with dynamo and spring dampers.

4)   Employed Six Sigma Technique to arrest leakage issue in Exhaust system of Heavy commercial Vehicle at TATA Motors, Lucknow. Implemented Statistical Control Charts, Why-why analysis & Man Machine Material analysis to identify & rectify the root cause.

5)   Studied and Upgraded the Vehicle Tracking System using GPS in lorries carrying HSD & MS at BPCL.

 

Internships :

 

1)   5 Months at TATA Motors, Lucknow

2)   1 Month in Mahindra & Mahindra Swaraj Pvt Ltd, Mohali

 

Recommendations :

 

1)   HOD from PEC (strong)

2)   Project Guide in PEC (strong)

3)   Area Director from ISRO (strong)

 

Misc. Achievements :

 

1)   Awarded Merit Scholarship by the University in 2011 & 2012

2)   Member, Editorial Board of College

 

Tentative Universities :

 

Each & every suggestion from your side will be helpful.
