On Board Diagnostics (OBD) Controls Engineer Resume Example

• Techniques for Detecting a Disconnected Engine Air Hose Using an In-Line Pressure Sensor (Patent Pending)
• Validation of Brake Torque Signal for Use  as a Brake Event Input Signal (Patent Pending)

 “Flight Environment Modeling for Optimal Control”, Dhaval D. Shah, Amor A. Menezes, Ilya V. Kolmanvosky •  

•    Published and presented at the American Controls Conference (ACC), Montreal, 2012        

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) System

• Modeled and simulated a simple vehicle model (Bicycle Model) which implemented an ACC system

• Communicated with other vehicles using CAN protocol for position and speed information

• Implemented an automatic steering controller using PID control to actuate the haptic wheel

Control-Oriented Physics Based Compressor Modeling

• Developed and implemented a two-zone compressor model that accounts for internal losses using fewer emprical correlations and achieved high accuracy (95%)
• Extrapolated the model accurately to low operating turbocharger speeds (10000 RPM)

 High Altitude Helium Balloon

• Designed payload consisting of a processor (Arduino nano), sensors, communication system, flight termination unit, GPS system and camera system
• Sent payload to an altitude of 100,000 feet to record sensor data
• Programmed cameras to capture pictures at regular time intervals
• Tracked the payload constantly through the GPS and communication system

Automated Hovercraft – Planning and Scheduling

• Received location information from the vision system
• Computed all possible actions and selected the best option based on environmental conditions
• Relayed this information to the electric motor to maneuver the hovercraft

 Non-Linear Analysis of Energy Recovery System in BEV's

• Modeled an energy recovery system in a Battery Electric Vehicle and linearized the system dynamics
• Applied non-linear control techniques to stabilize the system and track the desired output
