Academic projects
ME 447, Design and analysis of total knee replacement system:
Used Pro - E to design modular components of total knee replacement system.
Used Pro-E assembly tool to assemble individual components.
Used ABAQUS to run analysis on the model and identified potential failure areas.
Proposed optimum thickness of the UHMWPE component based on the analysis.
BIOE 594, Implant design
Proposed a theoretical model of hip implant for obese patients.
Obese patients are at higher risk for implant failure because of the abnormal load and accelerated
physiologic corrosion.
Designed a modified hip implant, which can bear higher load with minimum change in dimensions.
BIOE 515, Spine Biomechanics
Developed complex finite element model of spine (including bone, soft tissues and discs) to study the
effect of nucleotomy.
