Columbus, In

Technical specialist focused on the simulation of engine and after treatment systems utilizing GT Power, Matlab, Simulink, & AVL Boost softwares. I have extensive experience with data analysis and analytics related to vehicle, engine and exhaust after-treatment system performance including real-world drive cycle analysis. My work includes machine learning techniques including clustering and anomaly detection to identify representative duty cycles and assist with the identification of aberrant behaviors to assist with improving the robustness of On-Board Diagnostics (OBD). Application of statistical methods to evaluate simulation fidelity and system performance characteristics. I am also involved in the mentoring and coaching junior engineers.
