Modeling and validating the mechanical and electrochemical behavior of soft tissues using finite element methods• Developed and validated an augmented biphasic swelling theory incorporating viscoelastic behavior of soft tissue• Implemented and optimized finite element model using COMSOL multiphysics for mechanical and chemical integrity analysis.• Developed and refined a CAD model from the MRI data for finite element analyse using Analyze• Used MRI imaging data to create a patient specific model.

Using high resolution MRI scans to segment out parts of the knee and create a parametric 3 D model to be utilized for finite element modeling.• Developed and implemented protocols to extract physiologically relevant anatomical features from MRI and CT scans using Analyze• Converted segmented images to form a CAD model, to be implemented for finite element analysis.• Refined CAD model for smooth meshing and reducing singularities during the FEM implementation.

• Mentored an undergraduate student: Taught the basic principles of image segmentation especially for MRI images of the knee. Helped develop CAD models using MRI data.• Summer @ Rensselaer (For high school students) : Taught the theory and implementation of finite element methods in COMSOL. Helped the students understand the advantages of computational modeling through a sensitvity analysis run for intervertebral disc.• National Science Olympiad, Susan Odell Taylor School, Troy, NY: Participated in a one day science olympiad helping kids get excited about science through a series of fun experiments.

Numerical modeling of the endovascular system• Utilized a numerical model to determine the biomechanical factors important in stent design.• Results showed that stent placement along with geometry played a crucial role in the local stress and arterial blood flow developed in the region.• The altered blood flow patterns developed low wall shear stress ultimately risking restenosis.• The study showed that by optimizing the impedance mismatch and placement of a drug eluding stent could reduce restenosis.

Simulating the impact of concentrated force on the spinal cord using ABAQUS• The purpose of this study was to probe into the field of explicit dynamic modeling of the Intervertebral disk using ABAQUS. The present static creep analysis was adapted to perform a high velocity, high impact dynamic modeling.Modeling the effect of blood pressure on a stent using ABAQUS • Study the plastic and dynamic behavior of a stainless steel stent under the effect of pulsating blood flow on the stent.• Performed a stress analysis using a 3D model of the stent in ABAQUSOptimizing the auto-focusing algorithm for a wide-field, high resolution optical microscope using visual studio • Optimized an edge detection based algorithm, enabling the acquisition of a focused image for each ‘tile’ of image taken on a simple optical microscope.• Focused image acquisition time reduced by 50 %.
