WORK EXPERIENCE

Project Engineer, Confidential (Nov 2006- May 2009)

Spin loss testing of 2 mode hybrid transmission
Involved in test bench setup (Dynamometer, data acquisition, sensors and transducers), transmission installation
Created macros (Visual Basic) for data analysis and report creation
Designed test bench procedures for testing in fixed gear and EVT modes.
Responsible for update of the test bench in weekly meetings with customer
Interfaced with customer regarding new test plans and implement the required changes in setup and data processing scripts
Troubleshoot issues in controls, data acquisition and setup in the test rig.

Understand theory of 2 mode hybrid powertrain.
Executed calibration of Engine Pulse cancellation, Hybrid Active Damping and Input Speed & Clutch regulation rings
Hybrid Active Damping – Monitor any vibrations on the driveline and use motor torques to provide corrective action.
Engine Pulse Cancellation – Cancel out the engine compression pulses during an auto start
Input Speed & Clutch – Regulate the idle and clutch speeds.
Documented Active damping functionality, explaining function of each block (Simulink)
Expanded on the existing software to achieve OEM (BMW) requirements
Created offline simulation models for simulating the functions using the data collected on prototype vehicles
Performed frequency sweep tests on prototype vehicle in each of the gears and electric modes and analyzed frequency sweep data (Bode Plots)
Responsible for testing and validation of calibration parameters on test bench, HIL and prototype vehicle
Responsible for releasing calibration values for the subsystems owned
Created data post processing scripts for the collected data ( MATLAB, Visual Basic)
Worked with CAS (Combustion Analysis System) for pulse cancellation function.
