Examples of some of the projects completed during the research-based program:✔ Development of path-following controller for lane changing maneuvers in autonomous vehicles.✔ Modelling the dynamics of a insect-like robot. ✔ Robust Control Analysis and Design of a Floating Wind Turbine.✔ Soft robot modelling and control for testing model-based control techniques.

Singapore

As a Vehicle Dynamics Engineer, ✔ Constructed tire models using raw tire data for vehicle dynamics analysis. ✔ Created a lateral vehicle dynamics model using MATLAB/Simulink to perform lap time simulations.✔ Analyzed and designed the steering and anti-roll kinematics

Singapore

As a Front Suspension Engineer, ✔ Analyzed and designed the kinematics of the front suspension. ✔ Improved the finite element models used to perform stress analysis on the wheel hub.✔ Performed over 50 experiments using an Instron tensile-testing machine in order to determine the strength carbon fiber rods bonded to aluminum surfaces.✔Designed, fabricated and tested the front suspension system that included the uprights, suspension arms, push-rod, bell-crank and several attachments achieving an overall weight reduction of ~8% and an improved stiffness of ~3%.

Singapore

As a research intern in the autonomous welding robot project,✔ Generated a virtual map of the robot's surroundings by using distance data obtained from laser sensors mounted on the robot. ✔ Conducted market research on the different type of distance sensors that are the most suitable for the project's application, taking into account cost, feasibility and performance. ✔ Performed literature review on techniques used to localize the robot within it's mapped surrounding by integration of sensor data and the state-space equations with the use of a Kalman filter.
