Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati, Assam

 

 

Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati is the sixth member of the IIT fraternity was established in 1994. IIT is among the foremost of institutes of national importance in higher technological education and in basic and applied research.

 

Key Responsibilities:

·         Creating and analysing a hip model using ANSYS software.  Comparing them with Charnley’s model; a standard benchmark model.

·         Theoretically setting and analysing the composite properties

·         In charge of the materials and the CAD lab.  Assigning duties to the students, conducting class tests and valuing the papers.

·         Assisting my guide in preparing his lecture notes and in other aids for the lab.

 

Biomechanics Of Hip Joints, Course Completion By August 2004

The research deals with the preparation of alternative material for the human hip joint. Total hip replacement is taking a new dimension with the UHMWPE (Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene) and PEEK (PolyEtherEtherKeetone) composite materials with the material properties the model has been developed using the ANSYS Software.  Stress and Fatigue Analysis were done on the model and the result is compared with the benchmark Charnley’s model.  Further work can be done on Wear Modelling and the Variable Amplitude Fatigue Loading Of The Prosthesis based on this research.  The hip model can be made at a lesser cost than those available in the market.

 

Till now an idealised hip prostheses model has been developed and analysed using ANSYS and 3D-Finite Element Analysis.  Design optimisation is also carried out for an isotropic model. The fatigue analysis has been done on the model to determine the life period of the prosthesis. Statistical methods are used to determine the wear rate of the model.  This method helps in analysing the damage on the model.

 

Course work opted for are Advanced Engineering Mathematics, Theory Of Elasticity

Finite Element Analysis and Introduction To Composite Materials.

Academic Qualification

 

 

 

 

Master of Engineering Research Work

< 

Finite Element Analysis of Engine Flywheel

Ashok Leyland, Hosur, India

 

The project deals with an Axi-Symmetric Model Of Flywheel. Stress analysis was done over the flywheel using FEA and the stress, strain and displacement values were found out. The flywheel was analysed with the I-DEAS (Master Series) software. The design of the flywheel was checked up under safe limits. Recognition was given for the flywheel design. The model was meshed with free meshing and the boundary conditions were fixed for the axi-symmetric model; 2D and 3D analysis were done on the model.

 

Made at about 3500 rpm the flywheel is running without any failure.  This is a big success under Indian road conditions.

 

 

Bachelor of Engineering Research Work

< 

Design And Fabrication Of Solar Assisted Desalination Plant

 

This project deals with the non-conventional energy source (Solar energy) is how far helping in domestic appliance of the day-to-day activities of the human being. With the use of this Project we can collect up to 20Liters of desalinated water in the peak sunny days. This is a very useful project for people who are at the coastal areas.
