• Conduct semi-truck testing and process the data obtained from data logger, CALTERM and GPS system.• Modelling and simulation in MATLAB to determine fuel economy and powertrain performance of the customer trucks.

• Conducted dynamometer testing of the Cummins ISB 2013 6.7 L engine and production aftertreatment system and acquired data from DAQ system and emission analyzer using software LabVIEW, V&F Viewer, and Calterm.• Analyzed the temperature distribution and pressure drop across the aftertreatment system consisting of DOC, CPF, SCR in a DPF using Excel and MATLAB.• Determined the chemical kinetics of passive and thermal oxidation of PM with urea dosing in the SCR in DPF system.• Designed and fabricated an orifice plate to measure pressure drop and investigate for any leakage in the line.• MS degree Report titled “An Experimental Investigation of the effect of Particulate Matter on NOx Reduction in the SCR Catalyst on a DPF”.
