Abaqus / fe-safe finite element analysis – fatigue life study • Constructed a computational finite element model to simulate a mechanical test setup designed to evaluate fatigue strength of titanium prostheses used in total elbow replacement • Modeled a prosthetic embedded in a bone cement block under a high-cycle (3 million) sinusoidal load • Compared the fatigue life expectancy to the experimental result as a validation • Suggested detailed design modifications for prolonged longevity of implant life

Brown University

• Courses: Advanced Mechanics of Solids – taught lab courses, held office hours, graded labs and homework.

Boston University

Multi-Scale Tissue Biomechanics Lab • Examined the effects of glucose and cholesterol on the progression of mechanical properties of elastin fibers in aortic arteries • Designed and manufactured cell incubation chamber using CAD & CNC • Performed in-vitro laboratory experiments using a biaxial tensile tester and temperature controls • Developed a grogram using MATLAB for processing the collected data, and wrote paper on findings for the Journal of Biomechanics
