Graduate Research Assistant, Utah Traffic Lab, University of Utah                                              May 2014 – Dec 2015

(Graduate research assistant under supervision of Dr. Richard Jon Porter)

• Performed clinical research on roadway departure crashes, unsignalized intersection crashes and work zone crashes
• Gathered documented, and coded data from the nationally represented crash database
• Improved causal descriptions by conducting in-depth analysis from on scene crash investigation reports and photographs
• Developed refined crash type definitions using the data

Math Tutor, ASUU Tutoring Center, University of Utah                                                                           Jan - Aug 2014

 Tutored and Mentored students individually and in groups for Math and GRE

Graduate Engineering Trainee, BVR Malls (JMC Projects Pvt.Ltd)                                                         May - July 2012

• Determined and examined the trends of estimation and costing of the materials that are needed to construct the project
• Modification of project schedules accordingly

ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Planning of Foot Hill Drive Road in Salt Lake City, Introduction to Transportation Planning                          Fall 2013

• Presently consisting of 3 lanes in each direction with no BRT/HOV and bike lanes. Idea is to modify with two lanes and a BRT/HOV lane on the left lane in each direction with a median in the middle. Proposed Michigan turns which are ideal during peak hours

Design of a Two- Lane Highway, Highway Design                                                                                Spring 2014

• Three alternatives were designed using “AASHTO “Green Book”. Each alternative was designed with roadway features meeting required criteria for the roadway using Microstation/InRoads. Best alternative was recommended based on the safety evaluation, cost estimation, and design consistency

Vehicle Design and Technologies, Transportation Safety                                                                     Spring 2014

• Found out various important vehicle designs and technologies developed in the recent years which are proved to provide safety during crashes. Linked them statistically how they are related to recent fatality trends

Analysis of Bus Route-33, Public Transportation Systems                                                                       Fall 2014

• Performed complete analysis on Utah transit authority’s (UTA) bus route 33. Conducted transit network analysis, on-line travel time analysis, on-line speed analysis, capacity analysis, and schedule reliability analysis. Based on the schedule reliability, delays were identified on the bus route between the stations and appropriate alternatives were recommended

Analysis of a seismically retrofitted frame by steel bracings                                                         Spring  2013        

• Project team focus: Configure seismic retrofitting system to upgrade performance of seismically vulnerable reinforced concrete buildings to cope up with upgraded earthquake zones. Analyzed a five-storied building for upgraded seismic zone IV (Previously in zone III as per IS 1893: 2002) using STAAD Pro software. Provided bracings for peripheral columns. Examined the effectiveness of various types of steel bracing in retrofitting a five-story building. Identified percentage reduction in lateral displacement and drew conclusions based on safety criteria, and economy
