• Created electromagnetic and thermal designs of high‑frequency PMSM motors using Motor‑CAD for the next generation Three‑phaseheavy‑duty diamond coring machine
• Developed a system simulation with Matlab and ANSYS Maxwell to determine the conditions at which the permanent magnets of PMSMsare demagnetized
• Conducted research on heavy rare earth metal‑free magnet grades and evaluated their demagnetization resistance to develop a new seriesof sustainable and durable brushless motors for HILTI’s demolition hammers and.
• Support the development of a simulation tool‑chain using Python and ANSYS Maxwell that generates 1. A Reduced order model of thePMSMs used by HILTI. 2. The Magnetic losses that occur inside the motor iron and draw.

• Thesis Topic- Accurate inverter losses modelling and benchmarking of BLDC motors for different electrical steel grades.
• Generated a Matlab script to automate a FOC based motor drive simulation (created using ANSYS Simplorer and Maxwell) and calculatethe inverter losses accurately.
• Generated efficiency maps and loss curves over a wide range of speed and torque for the simulated motor drive.
• Using the generated maps, conducted a Benchmarking study and sensitivity analysis of different PMSM motor classes focusing on theSwitching frequency of the PWM and changing motor electrical steel materials.

• Created a motor drive simulation in ANSYS Simplorer capable of operating an FOC‑driven PMSM motor in both its constant torque regionand field weakening region.
• Tested several variations of existing rotor and stator designs using 2D and 3D FEM simulations to check motor performance against fluxweakening.
• Performed Benchmarking of a 6 step block commutated BLDC motor drive against a 12 step block commutated motor drive using ANSYSSimplorer and ANSYS Maxwell.
• Developed a simulation workflow for the electromagnetic design of Hilti’s BLDC motors and generating their Reduced Order Models.
• Developed a 6 step block commutated motor drive simulation in ANSYS Simplorer for both 120 deg and 180 deg commutation
• Studied and developed a 12‑step block commutated BLDC drive using ANSYS Simplorer.
