Some of My Highlights
The drivetrain of an off-road vehicle is responsible for transmitting power to the wheels, enabling the vehicle to move efficiently. The primary objective of our drivetrain team is to meticulously design, develop, and seamlessly integrate the drivetrain system to transmit power to the wheels which includes the design and development of gears, shafts, accelerator pedal and cable. The team collaborates closely with other subsystems, such as the suspension and controls teams, to ensure harmonious interaction between the drivetrain and the overall vehicle dynamics, ultimately contributing to the overall success of the team's endeavours.
Our team's first venture into the electric domain, the eDT encompasses the battery, motor and controller of our vehicle and all the drivetrain components of a mBAJA vehicle. The entire testing and integration of the eDT was done. overcoming all difficulties.
A CVT casing is a housing that shields the CVT from debri and dirt from the track. Designed to be easily mounted and removed and light weight, thus reducing our time in pits and in between events for tuning the CVT.
Due to the close proximity of the cvt to the engine and it being a belt drive, heat is a major problem. To solve this issue a fin was attached to the CVT to cool down the setup. This was designed to be effective and simple to manufacture after rigorous analysis.
The optimization in terms of weight reduction and corrective design of the drivetrain of our podium winning 2023 ATV.
Analysis of the ATV rollcage to identify resonating frequencies and take corrective measures to avoid failure of the chasis of the ATV.
A catalytic converter with Cu/Zn/Al as the catalyst helps in significantly reducing the emissions of hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide from the vehicle's exhaust, promoting cleaner and more environmentally friendly operation. We design and perform CFD analysis.. The Cu/Zn/Al catalyst consists of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and aluminum (Al) supported on a ceramic or metallic substrate Three-Way Conversion: The catalytic converter with Cu/Zn/Al catalyst is designed to perform a three-way conversion, simultaneously addressing the reduction of NOx, oxidation of CO, and oxidation of HC. This enables the converter to effectively control multiple types of pollutants generated by the engine combustion process.
An intelligent pneumatic can crushing bot that detects metal canisters automaitically when placed and crushed them to small discs. This bot is fitted with a lot of safety features and sensors to give utmost saftey to the user and to be used anywhere.
Worked as an intern in the prestigious National Institute of Ocean Technology, Pallikaranai. Here, Worked in the Deep Sea Technologies department, learning from esteemed scientists while working on CAE of expendable components.
A user controlled solar bot that propels on the surface of water to take oceanic data and to carry payloads of upto 10kgs. This can be operated on small ponds to the oceans via a an app on any mobile device.
A frangibolt is a bolt that undergoes faileure on application of thermal stresses. This is used to detach expendable components in rockets and in unmanned submarines. The analysis on these bolts proved vital data to obtain the optimal count to be used in a set up and the grade of bolt to be used in project Matsya 6000. S
